They did AMAZING!!! The arrangement is beautiful! The harmonies, the key, the lyrics, the accompaniment… all beautiful! From our first run through, they were drawn in. It was such a blessing to lead them. As they sang of facing the gale they sang with such power! And sang with devotion and humility as they sang of waiting upon the hand of the Lord. I had several people comment on how beautiful the choir sounded and how strong the Spirit was. Thank you.

I am a service missionary and this month the theme for our devotionals is: “We can’t direct the wind, but we can adjust the sails” from Thomas S Monson. When I began looking for a song for my daughter to sing during our Devotional, your new song “Peace, Peace Be Still” fit so beautifully with our theme that I knew it was the perfect one. My daughter was able to sing it for our missionaries today using Katherine Wright’s accompaniment from your website and it touched each of their hearts. Here are a few of their comments:

“Thank you, Thank you, thank you so much for sharing your daughter’s talent!  That was absolutely beautiful.   Please thank her, the composer and the pianist for making this such a special devotional. I hope you can read this because I am typing this through tears. I can’t tell you how much that song meant to me today. Love to them and to you this day.”

“Wow! That was one that I didn’t even want it to stop. That was very beautiful. Thank you, and all those who made it possible.”

The missionary who spoke following the presentation of your song said, “ I can hardly talk after that. It was so beautiful. We should just close the meeting!

“The music in the Devotional today was wonderful. I have never heard that song before. It was so beautiful, I’m glad I didn’t have to speak after that because I would not have been able to speak either. Thanks for sharing.”

“It fit like a puzzle piece. I needed that peace today. Thank you again”

Thank you so much Sally for the beautiful music you have provided so generously to so many. You have made this world a better and far more beautiful place by sharing your amazing talents! Thank you!

You knocked it out of the park with “Peace, Peace, Be Still”. It was amazing BEAUTIFUL artwork with the time delay effect, coupled with the perfect voice and arrangement… one word … WOW. Thanks again for sharing your gifts and talents.

I hope that you and your daughter are blessed for being willing to share your stories and your talents, you will certainly be in my heart and prayers. I’m not sure there could ever be a way to measure all of the beauty you have brought into this world.
