An old American tradition is to sit around a campfire and sing hymn tunes that are familiar to everyone to while away a spring or summer evening. Three such hymns are included in this arrangement: Softly and Tenderly, Leaning on the Everlasting Arms, and The Old Fashioned Meeting. The treatments are highly individualistic and bring back fond memories of a kinder, gentler time. Will Thompson, Anthony Showalter, and Herbert Buffum were the composers (respectively) of the hymns.
