Through this piece I find one of the best expressions of how I feel about the Atonement of Christ. As I grow older and, hopefully, more humble I realize how much I need the power of the Atonement every hour, every moment of mortality.

This is a lovely tune that lends itself well to interesting harmony. This arrangement sounds something like an anthem, with confident intensity.

I’ve always enjoyed this tune from Sister Vanja Watkins (composer); particularly, I love the surprising harmony of her very bright and hopeful “Alleluia!” section.
