This reverent and subtly triumphant setting of the beloved hymn "How Great the Wisdom and the Love" invites singers and listeners alike to reflect on the infinite gift of the Savior’s Atonement. Eda Ashby’s inspired arrangement for SATB choir and organ captures both the majesty and the quiet wonder of this sacred truth.
Originally performed by the BYU–Idaho Choir in the April 2024 General Conference, this version beautifully balances power and tenderness—marked by expressive contours and reverent pauses that let the sacred words settle deeply in the heart.
Perfect for Easter or any worship service centered on the redeeming love of Jesus Christ, this anthem offers meaningful musical depth while remaining accessible to ward and stake choirs, with opportunities for an intermediate to skilled organist to add color and warmth throughout.
