Final touches have been added to the sheet music for Make Me a Blessing (very advanced piano solo).

This is a four page arrangement.  I  began in c minor to match the mood of the text and then when the text grows brighter….and soars into C Major!

Here’s a peek at page three….(please excuse the misaligned left hand note in the first measure).

This is a rough draft 🙂   Not much left to finalize the entire piece.

I started writing this arrangement a couple of months ago and then misplaced it!  I just found it this past weekend and was able to finish it today.

It was fun to use a lot of colorful chords for a more majestic sound.

The approximate time of this piece is 1:40.

God of Our Fathers

My Dad, Reece Yandle, wrote this moving song  many years ago.  It’s finally available in print!

I wish I had a recording of him singing this arrangement.

This Patriotic song has a wonderful message….reminding us to love our country and to remember that God gave us America and we need to keep her free!

The beginning of the chorus reminds us to honor our flag

“Lift up the flag of the red, white and blue,

The emblem of courage, the banner of the free!”

This is definitely a “flag waving” song!

This is America (NEW)

Now for a fast paced upbeat arrangement of Heavenly Sunlight!  I love this old hymn which reminds Christians that God will never fail them no matter what is happening in their lives.

I chose to arrange verse one and two for this piece.

Verse One

Walking in sunlight all of my journey, Over the mountains thru the deep vale.

Jesus has said, “I’ll never forsake thee,” Promise divine that never can fail.

Chorus:

Heavenly sunlight, heavenly sunlight, Flooding my soul with glory divine.

Hallelujah! I am rejoicing; Singing His praises Jesus is mine.

Verse Two

Shadows around me, shadows above me

Never conceal my Savior and Guide, He is the light; in Him is no darkness. Ever I’m walking close to His side!

Chorus: (same as above)

Heavenly Sunlight

Advanced sacred piano solo arranged by Jenifer Cook Contains two verses and choruses. Begins in G major and ends in A flat major. A very upbeat rendition of this traditional hymn. See video below.

I really enjoyed my recent visit with Lynndale Hardeman via Zoom!

Lynndale is the wife of a retired Pastor.  They spent a number of years in Georgia and then twenty years in Alabama where her husband pastored a church.

Now they reside in Texas near family.

Lynndale is known for her following songs: God Can and Thou Art Worthy.

There’s a third song by Lynndale that we have used in our church MANY times as a vocal solo…entitled….”God Has Provided a Lamb”.

I’m working on a solo/duet arrangement of this song that I hope to publish very soon!  I will let everyone know as soon as I publish it.

See video interview below to meet Lynndale Hardeman.

Time to start practicing for a Mother’s Day special!  Our ladies and young girls are going to sing “My Mother” this year.

There’s a total of three verses.  The song also has a chorus.

Verse one and two sound best for the ladies.  Verse three is appropriate for the young girls. (Ages 4 through teens)

The girls will join in on all the choruses.

We start rehearsing this Sunday until the day we sing on Mother’s Day.
