More about Don Sherwood:
Originally from Colorado Springs, Colorado, Don is a father of 8 children and grandfather of 3 (so far). He studied music at Brigham Young University for a time before switching gears to pursue a career in Software Engineering, but has continued to be engaged in musical pursuits throughout his life, playing the cello or bass in many community symphonies over the years, and writing a number of hymn arrangements - mostly for ward and stake choirs. He serves now as choir director (for the 4th time) in his ward in Eagle Mountain, Utah.
Song background:

This is one of my Grandma's favorite hymns, so when I was asked to play something for her funeral, I wrote this arrangement. The elegance of this arrangement is in its sweet simplicity. Avoid the temptation to speed it up, and it will reward you with a rich, contemplative, spiritually immersive experience.
