I enjoyed arranging All Creatures of Our God and King.

What an uplifting hymn!  The author of this song, Saint Francis, is better known as Giovanni Bernardone.  He wrote over sixty hymns.

“At the age of 25 Bernardone left an indulgent life as a soldier, renounced his inherited wealth, and determined to live meagerly and to imitate the selfless life of Christ.”  Amazing Grace 366 Inspiring Hymn Stories for Daily Devotions by Kenneth W. Osbeck

This arrangement is written with the intermediate church pianist in mind.

All Creatures of Our God and King

Sacred intermediate piano solo, 3 pgs. 1:27 time length A nice piece year round but especially for Thanksgiving. An excellent competition piece as well!

Price: $4.00

I have had readers asking if I could combine all the early advanced to advanced Christmas arrangements that are currently in my online store.

All of these selections are also sold separately.  

So…here’s the Christmas piano collection as requested with a total of fourteen songs.

Here’s a song that one of my piano students wrote two years ago that would make a great Thanksgiving special!

He’s a Wondrous Glorious God.  The sheet music can be found at the following link

This arrangement of “Only Trust Him” is in my Piano Invitation Collection which was published several years ago.

Most of the invitation hymns in this collection have already been published as individual arrangements.

I have three more to publish as solos asap!

I felt prone to sit down at the piano yesterday and play several hymns to encourage my Mom who recently had a challenging week.

We miss Dad but will see him again in heaven.  I’m sharing the recording via youtube.

February 28, 2024  Update:

I am working on a “FREEBIE” for “What a Friend We Have in Jesus”  congregational style.  (Not intended for piano solo since it’s accompaniment style) Download it HERE

Our church LOVES to sing What a Friend We Have in Jesus!  As I was playing for them to sing last night, I thought, “I could just download and capture that part of our service and use it as a teaching tool.

So…You’ll have to listen to the two clips below and notice the instructions embedded in the clips.   These fill-in tips are only meant to be suggestions.

I know each church pianist has their own version of fillers but I thought I’d share a couple for you all to grab by ear.  Of course not every church pianist plays by ear so….I can create up to several of these fillers in written form once I hear from you all.  Please leave your fill-in requests below in the comment section so I can start creating a few in print for you!  🙂

Ah!  I’m hearing you all now!  I will see what I can do about sharing some of these fill-ins for “What a Friend We Have in Jesus”

I’m assuming most of you play this song in F Major…..right?

I’m trying to find a clamp on piano lamp for our grand piano at church.

I’ve looked on Amazon’s site thus far. (I like having the option to plug it in.)

Any church pianist have a suggestion for a good performing piano lamp of this nature?

The only downside to clamp on lamps…they block my view of the song leader and sometimes the special depending where they are on stage.
