One of my many favorite hymns! “When We All Get to Heaven” is more of an upbeat hymn.
The lyrics were written by Eliza E. Hewitt. She was a school teacher from Philadelphia. One of her students hit her with a heavy slate on her back. She suffered a severe spinal injury from this incident.
She was an invalid the rest of her life. Eliza chose to write uplifting poetry and gospel hymns the rest of her life. A different person wrote the music to this well-loved hymn.
She met a lady, Emily Wilson, at summer camp. They became friends and Emily wrote the tune to “When We All Get to Heaven.”

I have been writing a lot of music for my students who help out on the pianos during the services.
Just finished writing “Jesus Paid it All” today! I will try to do better. It’s just that I’ve been writing a lot more hymn congregationals for my students who are helping out a whole lot more in the services!
Would you like to hear from some of my students who are involved in playing for our services?
My older two grandsons are now learning how to add to the hymns in the hymnal. I LOVE teaching them!
Oh! This article should have been all about this published arrangement but just so excited about my students being involved in our church music ministry!

I wrote this for one of my grandaughters who is almost in book level 2B by Randall & Nancy Faber.
I wrote this arrangement of O Come All Ye Faithful for my oldest grandson.
Michael is in Lesson 3B by the Fabers if that helps you classify the level of this piece.
The intro and ending consists of a colorful, majestic chord progression.
The arrangement is in the key of G Major: one verse and chorus in addition to the intro & ending.

I created these hymn arrangements for my students. They are able to play along with congregational singing with these straightforward arrangements or use the pieces for offertory or prelude.
Most of the songs are either C Major (where each hand is covering CDEFG) or Middle C Position (Thumbs share middle C)
There are ten arrangements (4 of the hymns are 2 pages long) but every hymn contains one verse and chorus.
