Jesus, the Very Thought of Thee

For SATB Chorus and Piano

This is one of my earliest “published” arrangements; somewhat revised and updated for this year’s stake conference.  The accompaniment is light and gentle, providing some forward motion for the piece.  The choral parts are not too difficult, but I’ve learned to be careful with the last verse: the key change and forward motions have a tendency to push the volume of the choir, but the sound is much better when restrained (strong, but not loud).
