Toward Easter Part 4: Making the old, new

Yesterday was St. Patrick's Day. For our Sunday music today, we have a worship piece that takes an old Irish tune, Londonderry Air (better known as O Danny Boy), and combines it with new lyrics by Kristyn Getty.  With an updated arrangement and orchestration by Keith Getty, the result is the beautiful "What Grace is Mine".  I love the reinvention of an old, familiar, secular tune into worship music. Brilliant.
