BEACH SPRING – strings
[audio mp3="https://gregscheer.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/beach_spring-strings-demo.mp3"][/audio]BEACH SPRING is a lovely American folk tune often paired with the text “Come, Thou Long-Expected Jesus.” (Also “As We Gather at Your Table,” “Wash, O God, Our Sons and Daughters,” and “Come, Ye Sinners, Poor and Needy.”) This arrangement was written for use in communion, so it is divided into distinct sections that allow it to end or continue depending on how much time is needed. Of course, it would work beautifully as a prelude, etc.

Price range: $5.00 through $25.00 Select options This product has multiple variants. The options may be chosen on the product page[audio mp3="https://gregscheer.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/11/hyfrydol-come_thou_long_expected.mp3"][/audio]
The Advent text “Come, Thou Long-Expected Jesus” is sung to several tunes. HYFRYDOL, written by 19th-century Welsh composer Rowland Prichard, is a bright tune that prepares the joy of Christmas well and makes for a great closing hymn. This arrangement accompanies congregational singing and could be used with other texts set to HYFRYDOL, including “Alleluia! Sing to Jesus” and “Love Divine, All Loves Excelling.”Note: The piano and string arrangements can be played together, but they are also complete when played independently.
