Jon Schmidt, a well known pianist and composer, said "Jerald M. Simon's arrangements are as beautiful as they are musically interesting. I'm sure people are going to love hearing them in church meetings or wherever they are played."

It is the hope of the artist Jerald M. Simon (Jerald Simon) and the publisher Music Motivation® that each of these hymn arrangements will uplift, inspire, comfort, and empower the listeners. Hymns are magnificent because they help us to focus on that which is of most worth to us. As we listen to the melodies we think of the inspired words of each hymn. They help us do our best each day and strive to do our part to help those around us.

The order of the songs in this book has a deliberate order. As we look at the beatuy of the earth, our souls are stilled. We have imperfections, but we strive to be nearer to God. By doing so, we stand amazed and ask God to abide with us. We need Him and His light in our lives because He gives us more holiness. We hear His voice and come to Him because He loves us and we are His.
