Our beloved Island of St.Maarten was hit HARD by Hurricane Irma. Irma was a Cat 5, and the eye went straight over the top of the island. Widespread devastation was the result. I was really worried for the members of the LDS branch, but every single one of them survived the storm.
The hymn, Be Still, My Soul, often played through my mind when we lived in St.Maarten. Those were difficult and wondrous times. Everyone should experience living in the middle of the ocean, far away from your loved ones and from your comfort zone. It forces you to grow A LOT.
After Irma hit, I knew it was time to write an arrangement of this hymn. I dedicated this arrangement to St. Maarten and to our island friends. My heart was right there with them as they worried when Irma approached, and now all the trials they are facing in trying to recover from the storm's aftermath.
