#56 "Soflty Beams the Sacred Dawning"

This was the most difficult hymn I've played this year.  The key of "D-flat" is not an easy one to play.  I can't see ever using this hymn for congregational singing or in a choir setting just because it so difficult to play.  It makes me wonder why the 1985 hymnbook committee didn't ask the composer to change the key.  I know I won't be using this hymn as long as I'm the ward organist.  Sorry, Brother J. Spencer Cornwall.
