There's something about those old hymns we used to sing in church when I was growing up. I don't hear them much any more, but when I do, it takes me back. Back to more innocent days when we (my brothers and my friends and I) would sit in a pew on Sunday morning, trying with everything in us not to snicker or snort during the prayer. I can still hear the offering plates being passed, and the sound of a congregation rising to their feet and sliding hymnals out of the backs of pews. Remembering warmly those days, I have arranged and performed some of my favorite hymns on my piano at home. I hope that as you spend soem time with these hymn arrangements, they will help you rewind to more innocent days and renew your spirit with the memorires and thoughts of God that molded your own heart along the way. --From the Foreword
