Dead Cross (주 달려 죽은 십자가)

I.Watts & Gregorian Melody  

In the fourth album of the Heaven Piano Music Book, I play hymns over and over and over again.

I also played the 8-beat ballad version twice. For the second time, please note that I played one octave higher. I've written down the tension, so keep that in mind.

And of course, you have to check the chords while playing the hymn version. It's okay to play Arpeggio with an intro that's more familiar. And even when I have to keep the four beats in every four bars, I play the four beats with Arpeggio. So both the accompanists and the audiences do not need to see what's going on. 

It's even easy to count the beats.

I chose "Dead Cross" as a praise to meditate and practice together during the week of hardship. For me, the lyrics of hymns are heavy rather than melody or chord. When I think of the Lord's cross, I throw away my greed, my pride. Only God's grace and love remain. May all Heaven's accompanists throw away their waste and have a hardship to leave behind.
