Aaron McDermid has arranged Come Sing to Me of Heaven with broad, open chords and tightly-woven suspensions. The slow, mournful opening gives way to a faster, contrasting middle section as the anticipation and hope of heaven builds. This moving contemplation of death and heaven is also a song of comfort, an emotional offering for concert or contest.
