Program Notes:

Here is a duet, originally written for Flugel and Horn, that provides a reflective setting of this well-known melody originally written in 1923.  It's writer, William Runyan, transformed Thomas Chisholm's text into a form that immediately became popular among church groups.  The biblical lyrics reference Lamentations 3:22-23, and the song was exposed to its widest audiences after its use in Billy Graham's international crusades in the middle 20th century.
