This song was a great addition to the limited number of Easter hymns in the 1950 LDS Hymnal. I like the three different endings to each verse. Our ward choir has performed this song at many Easter services.
"Hymnal Plus, Vol. 6" has a way to make this hymn even more special with 10 measures of added introduction, 10 measures of interlude between verses one and two, and 10 measures of postlude. I haven't used that arrangement yet, but I have a note in my personal hymnbook to remind me about it.
"SING * PLAY * LOVE"...My thoughts and memories as I play one hymn each day from the hymnbook of "The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints" during 2012.
