Song background:

Near the end of my first day in the MTC I felt a bit of a let down. After all the anticipation and building up to that moment reality was beginning to sink in. This was going to be a lot of work. I remember sitting in the large room we used for evening firesides and feeling a little detached, watching others, feeling like I was on the outside looking in. Then someone started playing the prelude 'Nearer My God To Thee'. There wasn't an angel. There was no grand vision. But there was peace. This song isn't necessarily an attempt to recreate that moment - but I do hope to share similar moments with others.

Linking to my new friends in upstate New York who used this song for their video!
