I need some help with a song!

[The Melody Maker]

And I think MelMak is working on that. He hears music and creates sheet music for it, the talented fellow.

I'm transposing it down half an octave so that Mr. mossy doesn't screech on those high notes.

They are pretty screechy, the way she sings it.

I have always admired my daughter's ability to "transpose on the fly" when accompanying me on the piano. Many of the hymns are just above my voice range, and she'll play a couple chords, finding my range, and "lower it down" to me... and just play on like nothing happened.

My sister remembered!

It's called God's Great Grace. The record it was on was a different one than I had remembered, but the same group. Hence, it's not in the songbook I have. I can't find a version of that choir singing it, but I found this one, which is the same, but sung by a soprano, so it's very high pitched.

The part I remembered is the chorus, and the last line is:

"T'will stand unmeasured while the ages roll."

Now, I need to hunt down the lyrics. I find the singer in the video somewhat hard to understand, but that might be my hearing aids. I struggle sometimes with higher pitched sounds.

There! We've all learned something today!

Good song. If you ever find a choir singing it, let me know. I think it would be better as a choir song.

It absolutely is better with a choir. That's how I know it. Sadly, I haven't found a clip of that choir singing it, nor any other choir. MelMak just finished doing it in sheet music for us to sing, though!

And I was going to tell you to check with your sister!! Okay. Maybe not.

Glad you found it. Get it posted on youtube so others can find it.

I thought of asking my sisters late, as usual. Should have known one of them would come up with it!

My dad had that record. The sister that remembered the song thinks she had it, but she got rid of a bunch of stuff a few years ago, trying to downsize. She has a lot of her things packed away and doesn't know if she still has it. She might have the book, too, but can't remember.

I've asked The Melody Maker to post the file of his arrangement of the song, which he just finished yesterday (I think), here in this thread so folk can listen to it.

MIDI and PDF included, in case anyone wants to either listen or print it out for singing along.
