I just wrote two piano hymn arrangements yesterday with my students in mind. They’re still in the handwritten stage right now.

The names of the pieces are All Hail the Power (late elementary)  and Turn Your Eyes Upon Jesus (early intermediate)

These two arrangements came about after turning up a limited supply of hymn arrangements at these levels.

I’m sure there are more nice selections at this level depending on what style you’re looking for. I prefer to expose my students to different arrangers for a more diverse experience at playing the piano.

Some of my favorite books near the late elementary to early intermediate are…  (Click on book images to view more information)

Maybe some of you could suggest your favorite books or sheet music at these levels for us to glean from.  Thanks!

Here’s a free arrangement of Christ Arose for the early intermediate church pianist.

Most hymnals offer this  Easter hymn in the key of C Major.  I’ve provided this arrangement in a lower key…B flat major.

This early intermediate piano arrangement was written for one of my students who is the church pianist for her church.

Just click the following link to print this arrangement:

CHRIST AROSE (early intermediate congregational arrangement)

About a month until Easter to learn this very advanced piano solo.

I like how this hymn summarizes Jesus’ life.

This would make a great Christmas or Easter arrangement!

We use this hymn all year round in our congregational singing or for a choir special.

One Day!

Very advanced sacred piano solo arranged by Jenifer Cook Two verses and choruses. Begins in C major and ends in E flat major.

Price: $5.25

Surprise!  “One Day” is public domain!  Here’s the note I received last week giving me the green light to publish this beautiful Easter hymn.

From CCLI Song Select (customer service).

I will publish “One Day” advanced piano solo tomorrow March 10th 2023

I just finished inputting the surprise Easter piano solo arrangement into my note software!

Now for the final touches before publication. It’s four pages in length (Two verses and two choruses)

Here’s a peek at one of the measures…

I’ll be playing facebook live tomorrow evening, February 2nd at 7:30 pm EST.

Event Link:  Hymns of Comfort & Guidance

My husband came up with the hymn selections dealing with comfort & guidance.

Here’s my playlist:

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.

Sorry but I have not had the time to input a lot of music into sheet music this Christmas.  Here’s a quickie for the elementary level of Hark the Herald Angels Sing.

I wrote it for my ten year old grandson to play at this year’s recital and offertory at church.

He enjoyed learning it…especially the intro and big bass ending!

The arrangement consists of an intro, verse, chorus and ending…all in the key of F Major.
