This is a song that my mother had taught me when I was a little girl, and I still sing it almost every night when I go to bed. Diane Bish, who arranged this as an organ solo, is a very famous organist in Florida. I think it's encouraging that she would take the time to arrange this piece. This song, from the children's fairy tale, conjures so many powerful emotions and nuances, and it talks about fourteen angels. The fourteen angels, as it turns out, are a group of collectively venerated saints in Roman Catholicism. Their intercession is believed to be particularly effective, especially against certain diseases. I hope you enjoy it.
