 I Want To Walk As A Child 
Composer: Kathleen Thomerson  Arranger: Tom Trenney  Author/Lyricist: Kathleen Thomerson 

Voicing: TTBB  Released: January 2017  Difficulty: Medium
   Performed at the ACDA National Convention in 2017, this fabulous hymn was composed in the 1970's by Kathleen Thomerson. Already a popular song in churches throughout the world, Tom Trenney's arrangement has the charm to make it a popular concert piece as well. The message is enriching and the tune inspiring, yet Trenney makes it soar to new heights. The sacred text keeps it most fitting for churches, but like a Spiritual, it may find its way into the concert hall as well. Medium.
