Latest Publications! Happy Birthday & Praise to the Lord the Almighty

Tuesday, August 12th, 2025

One of my readers recently asked for an arrangement of “Happy Birthday.”

Her church sings happy birthday to their church members.

She’s been needing an easy arrangement of this well-used  song.

The arrangement is short but to the point 🙂

Happy Birthday
Early intermediate arrangement. A must have for the church pianist. No more hunting around for the melody of this popular melody!
Price: $1.00

One of my daughter-in-laws recently searched for an easy arrangement of “Praise to the Lord the Almighty”.

She was going to play it in one of her brother’s wedding.

Neither one of us could turn up an easy arrangement of this song.

So, I decided to write an easy to learn arrangement for this hymn.

Praise to the Lord the Almighty
Early intermediate sacred piano solo. Four pages. Contains: Introduction, 1st vs and chorus, 2nd verse and chorus with an energetic ending! I wrote this for one of my daughter in laws to play at her brother's wedding. She needed an easy to learn arrangement of this hymn. I wound up writing this arrangement since we couldn't find an easy version.
Price: $5.25

 

 

 

Early Intermediate Sacred Piano Solo: Praise to the Lord the Almighty

Monday, July 14th, 2025

 

Recently, one of my daughter-in-laws was searching for a piano arrangement of “Praise to the Lord the Almighty.”

She needed an easy enough level to learn in time to play for her brother’s wedding during the candle-lighting.

I searched and didn’t find a version she could learn in time. My answer….I wrote a fairly easy arrangement….knowing she could easily embellish on her own. I plan to publish this easy-to-play arrangement ASAP!

All the Way My Savior Leads Me

Saturday, January 28th, 2023

Several of my viewers are asking for sheet music to a short video I did on youtube this past week. The four hymns were spontaneous. So, in time I will try to create at least one more from that particular video.  It will probably be “Near to the Heart of God”.

“All the Way My Savior Leads Me” was the first hymn I played in the short video.  I would guess this is an early advanced level. My spontaneous pieces do not always have much structure but you’re welcome to wade through my homespun version of this hymn.

This piece wouldn’t take much prep time for the early advanced to advanced church pianist.

All the Way My Savior Leads Me
Early advanced sacred piano solo, 3 pgs. One of Jenifer's homespun arrangements she penned to paper when viewers asked for a printed arrangement of one of her spontaneous pieces on facebook live.
Price: $3.75

Thanks to those who encouraged me to create sheet music for  All the Way My Savior Leads Me.

Wedding Song: Hearts Forever Joined

Sunday, June 2nd, 2019

Enjoyed recording this new wedding song “Hearts Forever Joined” during our vacation this past weekend.

Suggested use: during the prelude to a wedding or after the recessional.

I guess you could say this is my first non-lyric tune to write. Words may come at a later date but wanted to make

it available as prelude or postlude music for a wedding.

We tried our best to create the right balance of (background sound with piano but the river was too overbearing)  😉

Last year’s recording was a little easier because the water wasn’t as busy as this place.   I still enjoyed the backdrop!

Hearts Forever Joined
Early advanced piano solo for a wedding. (no lyrics) 3 pgs. Approx. length 1:28
Price: $4.00

 

 

Wedding Song: Hearts Forever Joined

Friday, May 31st, 2019

wedding-decorations-church-aisleI plan to do an outside recording real soon….of my new wedding song “Hearts Forever Joined”….weather permitting.   I think it’s going to become an annual tradition for me to record a song outdoors while vacationing 🙂

Publication date is set for this Monday! Stay tuned 🙂

Wedding Song with No Title! (HELP)

Monday, March 25th, 2019

Thanks for all your suggestions.  I decided on Hearts Forever Joined.

The only thing holding me back from publishing a wedding song is a title. It’s my first time to write a wordless melody for weddings.

If you don’t mind listening to my wedding tune to help make your suggestion…thanks!

Every title I’ve thought of so far has already been taken such as:

Melancholy Waltz

Love’s Promise

Promise of Love

Delicate Rose

Enduring Love

“Nearer My God to Thee” (with added bow & slur marks for violin)

Thursday, August 24th, 2017

I met a nice young lady at the Composer Symposium this past summer who attends the church where my husband and I were married!

She is a great violinist and offered to add the violin bow & slur marks to my arrangement of “Nearer My God to Thee”.  It has taken me a while to finalize the arrangement but now complete and available in our music store.

A big thanks to Abby Phillips for adding the violin markings! See video of Abby below playing her own arrangement of “I’d Rather Have Jesus” in her home church.

Nearer My God to Thee
Sacred violin solo w/ piano accompaniment; 4 pgs. *Price covers two copies. A nice solo piece for any occasion. The beautiful melody of this hymn flows gently back and forth between the piano and violin. *Bowing & slur marks included for violin.
Price: $4.50

New! Canon in C (Bridal Processional)

Tuesday, May 2nd, 2017

Finally! My first time to play for the Bridal processional without having to condense off the top of my head!

The Bridal entrance and then the introduction of the couple followed by recessional… are what I consider the highlights of a wedding ceremony.

Both of these highlights are so short lived…making it a challenge for the pianist or organist who usually have to condense or shorten the music selection.

One of my dear friends just got married this past Saturday and wanted Canon in D as the Bridal song.  I tinkered around with an intro and also tried making Canon in D sound regal instead of laid back.  Of course the idea for an intro didn’t hit me until a few hours before the wedding rehearsal.  I am so use to playing the traditional version…so I had to write out the condensed version.

This particular arrangement was meant for the Bride only….so it’s shorter than most wedding selections.

*Tip: I like to taper off (play gradually softer) when the bride gets closer to the front of the auditorium.

Canon in D   (Bridal Procession Only)
Piano arrangement; Bridal processional only. Approx. 40 seconds. One page. Ever had trouble condensing the traditional Bridal March? Look no more! This short and to the point selection fits the occasion! A nice trumpet fanfare for the piano introduction...makes for an exciting grand entrance.
Price: $1.75
