O, the Deep, Deep Love

The hymn tune of O, the Deep, Deep Love (commonly known in hymnal indexes as Ebenezer, or Ton-y-Botel) was written by Welsh composer Thomas J. Williams in 1890. Though several different texts have been set to Williams’ tune, the one that informed my arrangement was written in 1875 by Samuel Francis. Francis’ text speaks of the love of God as an ocean that is all around us, free and deep and always moving. Recorded on From This Place.
