31 Days of Fall Fun {Day 18}: A Perfect Soundtrack for a Beautiful Fall Day

As a music teacher sometimes I can't help but share music that I love.

I discovered the group, Piano Guys, just a few months ago and I haven't heard a piece they've done that I haven't liked.

One of their newest songs is an arrangement of the old hymn, Nearer My God to Thee. I highly recommend you make sure you computer speakers are on, click the link to YouTube, close your eyes, and enjoy. I doubt you'll regret it.

Music perfect for a Fall day:

Nearer My God to Thee

for 9 cellos

arranged and performed by Steven Sharp Nelson

Nearer, my God, to Thee, nearer to Thee!

E'en though it be a cross that raiseth me;

Still all my song shall be nearer, my God, to Thee,

Nearer, my God, to Thee, nearer to Thee!

Though like the wanderer, the sun gone down,

Darkness be over me, my rest a stone;

Yet in my dreams I'd be nearer, my God, to Thee,

Nearer, my God, to Thee, nearer to Thee!

There let the way appear steps unto heav'n;

All that Thou sendest me in mercy giv'n;

Angels to beckon me nearer, my God, to Thee,

Nearer, my God, to Thee, nearer to Thee!

Then with my waking thoughts bright with Thy praise,

Out of my stony griefs Bethel I'll raise;

So by my woes to be nearer, my God, to Thee,

Nearer, my God, to Thee, nearer to Thee!

Or if on joyful wing, cleaving the sky,

Sun, moon, and stars forgot, upwards I fly,

Still all my song shall be, nearer, my God, to Thee.
