Joseph Smith’s First Vision
http://www.lds.org
This hymn is a poetic ballad of the moments leading up to Joseph Smith’s glorious vision of Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ in the sacred grove and his culminating feelings of what he experienced.
A beautiful and faith inspiring piece.
This simplified hymn for organ has a tiny bit more technic’s in the left hand than most, but to keep in musical congruence, the moving notes needed to remain.

***New Note: I updated the link to this hymn June 28, 2014, after cleaning up some formatting issues and changing two notes in the organ part. I changed measures 7 and 11 and made them whole notes. ***
New Update 7/06/14: I changed the pedal note in the 3rd measure to a ‘C’ and added an ‘F’ and an ‘A’ in the tenor line. I then connected many notes together to reflect how I played it on the organ to provide a more legato sound
