Review:
The tune, BEACH SPRING, is commonly found in hymnals paired with various texts including "Wash, O God, Your Sons and Daughters" and "Lord, Whose Love Through Humble Service". This American melody from the mid-1800s is given expressive and sensitive treatment by arranger Karen Buckwalter. Following a quiet and serene opening, it blossoms in the center section with full and beautiful harmonies and then returns to the original serenity of the opening. Perfect for themes of baptism, discipleship and compassion, "Meditation on Beach Spring" will be a very versatile addition to your handbell library.
