Kathryn Cater trio performs “Great is Thy Faithfulness”

Notes from the composer

An unusual trio of this beautiful hymn by William M. Runyan, who wrote the melody for the words which first appeared in 1956 Bap­tist Hymn­al: Of the writing process he said, “This par­ti­cu­lar po­em held such an ap­peal that I prayed most ear­nest­ly that my tune might car­ry its mes­sage in a wor­thy way, and the sub­se­quent his­to­ry of its use in­di­cates that God an­swered my prayer.” The poem is by Thomas O. Chisholm, an American Methodist pastor and teacher, who was also a poet and editor, born July 29, 1866. This is his most famous work. Kathryn Cater has brought the tempo down, and put the meter in 9. In the style of Debussy, it is very moving and impressive.
