Problems form an important part of our lives. They are placed in our path for us to overcome them, not to be overcome by them. We must master them, not let them master us.

Hymn Text:<\/h1>\n

\u201cHermanos, Venid<\/a>\u201d by Jos\u00e9 V. Estrada G. was initially published in 1912 and continued to be published up through the 1942 hymnbook.\u00a0 It was intended to be sung to the tune of Latter-day Saint Psalmody<\/em><\/a>, 254<\/a>, which was OMEGA by John Tullidge (\u201cWe\u2019ll Sing the Songs of Zion\u201d).\u00a0 It was also published in the 1942 hymnal, though set to a tune by George Careless called SUPPLICATION (“O God, The Eternal Father”).\u00a0 In the Latter-day Saint Psalmody<\/em>, SUPPLICATION is the next page over from OMEGA, so it is possible that either there was a typo in the older hymnals or that both tunes were used interchangeably for the hymn and the latter won out later on (both tunes work for the text).<\/p>\n

New Music:<\/h1>\n

For some reason, with the trumpets and announcements of the King coming, the text linked to martial imagery in my mind, which in turn connected to military marches from eastern Europe.\u00a0 The music I wrote seems to draw on that background in what came to mind while writing for this hymn.<\/p>\n
