You Are Precious

The hymn writing team of Anderson and Nichols have produced a truly great hymn for the people of God. Celebrating how we are chosen and loved by God, the tune has an ancient flavor reminiscent of the British Isles. The accompaniment is especially tasty, holding on to harmonies after the melody has moved, maintaining vitality in the phrase. The closing section explores some wonderful harmonic deviations that bring a moving cadence to the piece's conclusion.
