#334 "I Need Thee Every Hour"

This is a nice arrangement for a men's choir.  Several years ago when I was the Stake Music Chairperson, I had a men's quartet sing it at the Saturday evening session of the Hesperia Stake Conference.

#332 "Come, O Thou King of Kings"

This is a good arrangement of the congregational version of hymn #59 for a men's choir.  It would be interesting to have someone write a transition between the two different keys (key of G and key of C) so that one of the verses could be sung by a men's quartet in their range.

#331 "Oh, Say, What Is Truth?"

This is a nice arrangement for a men's choir.  I would enjoy hearing a men's quartet sing this in church.

#330 "See, the Mighty Angel Flying"

I don't know why this hymn seemed familiar to me since it is a men's choir arrangement and it is unlikely that I would have heard a men's choir sing this.  Perhaps I heard it in General Conference, or just on a CD of the Hymns.  I like its repetition of words with a different tune in the last two lines of the song.

#329 "Thy Servants Are Prepared"

This men's choir arrangement is also a congregational hymn (#261).  Other than when I played #261, this hymn was new to me.

#328 "An Angel from on High"

This is a wonderful men's arrangement of the hymn which is also published for congregational singing.  (See hymn #13.)  I liked this arrangement and would love to find a quartet of men to sing this in sacrament meeting.
