#309 "As Sisters in Zion"

This song was a welcome addition to the 1985 hymnal.  This is such a perfect hymn for Relief Society.  When I read about the history of the hymn, I was surprised to find out the text was written in 1874.  Janice Kapp Perry wrote the music while waiting for her tour bus to be repaired.  It is a favorite of the sisters of Relief Society.  I like the simple tune and the text.
