“Sacred Memories,”

Volume 9  

For the piper who is frequently invited to participate in funeral services, here is an indispensable music book.  Contained are eighty very suitable hymns, carefully selected for funerals. They are appropriate for other times too, when familiar hymns are desired.

The words to these hymns are necessarily included because of their inseparability from the music.  Knowing the words will enable a piper to inflect the music in just the right way, not unlike a vocalist singing these hymns.  The words are actually a rendition of Scripture in poetry.

Besides being a ready reference to suitable music, “Sacred Memories” contains numerous articles to help a piper become more sympathetic and understanding of those who are suffering the pain of bereavement.

Articles of encouragement will help pipers know Jesus Christ in a personal way.  His compassion will emanate from the piper’s heart to make his or her music touch the souls of those who are deeply grieved upon the death of a loved one.

“Sacred Memories” presents a host of refreshing hymns to the piper.  Such hymns are, “God Shall Wipe Away All Tears,” “Safe In The Arms Of Jesus,” “Through My Tears,” and “When They Ring Those Golden Bells.”  Many hymns will sound beautiful when played by the novice.  Others such as, “In The Time Of Roses,” or “I Know That My Redeemer Liveth,” will require the dexterity and musical acumen of the experienced piper.  A challenge is offered to all that would participate in precious ceremonies in which music is such a valuable part.
