Surrender Medley LeiEz Music

I was revisiting the arrangement I had undertaken for I surrender all in my song “Surrendering All” with the thought to include it in the men’s group repertoire this year. As I usually sing lead for the group, I needed to make sure that the song is in my comfortable vocal range. The original arrangement of that song had one note above that range, so I made a change to that part of the arrangement. Then realizing that as the song has a large range, and the first part would be too low for sopranos, I thought I needed to put in a descant version of the first two lines. I ended up writing a whole new song and put that song in a medley with the original arrangement excluding the bridge from Surrendering All. This song includes lyrics from the Public Domain Hymn I Surrender All.
