Hi Ann, Glad you liked "In the Morning, Very Early". The lyrics, written by my wife, Anne, go well with this classic Appalachian tune.

John, my husband and I listened to this several times. What a lovely song .Ann and Sterling Andrews

John this is a wonderful hymn! I'm going to try to learn it & teach it to our little dulcimer group here in southern Maine tomorrow evening ! We play mostly in DAA so I need to re-arrange and I'll put your wife's name on our song sheets : ) hope that's ok! LMK.   If you search sue small dulcimer on YouTube you will find my channel, haven't posted much on here yet. We play in local library & nursing homes.

Thank you Gordon for your uplifting and supportive comments., John

John this is a lovely Easter Hymn! Thank you for playing it for us and please thank Anne for writing it. This is indeed inspiring.

Thank you Cindy, and Jim-Dickens, and Strumelia,  for your encouraging and uplifting comments.

John, this song played on your baritone is just beautiful!  Once again, a perfect family affair - written by Anne, sung and played by you, and all recorded by your daughter!  Thank you to all of you for this treasure…. Reflecting on our Lord!   Perfect for Easter and the coming of spring!

Thank you for sharing this beautiful song. You always inspire me!

Thank you Strumelia for your appreciative comment. It means a  great deal to both of us.

This is very very lovely, John. Your wife Anne's lyrics are perfect for it.
