The writers of this song did an excellent job. It is not hard to play and sounds really good if you play it how it is written. I highly recommend this sheet music to any level of pianist.

This is a great arrangement for this beautiful song! Love that there is an ability to transpose to a higher key so it can be easily sung by a higher female voice.
