We Gather Together

I didn’t make it home to North Carolina this year for Thanksgiving, so I am feeling a little sad as I think about not “gathering together” with the family. However, this is still a beautiful hymn, and I can just imagine how it would sound on a crisp Thanksgiving morning ringing out from the carillon. This 16th century Dutch melody is played by David Christensen on the carillon at the University of California, Riverside. I hope you have an outstanding Thanksgiving, and my wish is that you have even more to be thankful for next year.
