This "southern folk hymn" has been called hauntingly beautiful and I have to agree. I've checked a few of my hymn resources and can't find anything about this hymn, the arrangement we have by Paul Christiansen lists the text as anonymous and the composer is unlisted which only makes this harder to track down. Mr. Christiansen was the conductor of the Concordia Choir from Concordia College, Moorhead, Minnesota which will be at the Calvary Lutheran Church in Solana Beach this Saturday. If anyone knows more about this hymn or is able to dig something up please pass the info along.
