| Oh, how appropriate for Frodo as he has found himself once more, and as he rejoices once more to find life worth living! I'm sorry I don't know that particular hymn--I'll have to seek it out and see if I can find it. Author Reply: Yes, I considered the hymn his ultimate celebration of his new life and wonder at his new-found joy and faith. I wanted to fit it to "Brightest and Best" which has long been one of my favorite carols but it wouldn't quite work that way. Here are the words (Sorry there's no music file, maybe I can make one soon.): Brightest and Best ~~~{~@ | |

| Sorry to be replying to this so late! I read the hymn/prayer right away and loved it, esp. the religious parts - I am so glad he got to know his Creator - but didn't want to reply until I heard the music which I am now listening to which is cool too. :) Namarie, God bless, Antane Author Reply: Thanks Dearie, glad it works for you! I thought it was ALL religious parts lol Can't help wondering sometimes if Tolkien envisioned (if that's the right word) music for some of his songs. Seems he envisioned practically everything else, why not that? Unless he was musically impaired, perhaps. hugs Armariel~~~{~@ | |

| This is beautiful, both the words and the music. It sounds so like Frodo, too! The music is just perfect; like a hymn, but with a very "Middle-earthish" sound to it. I always love your music. :) God bless, Galadriel Author Reply: Why thank you Dearie! Glad you think it sounds like Frodo. Was really trying hard for that Middle-earthy sound and it wasn't easy. I actually wrote the melody over three times trying to get it just right! hugs Armariel ~~~{~@ | |
