ALL GOOD GIFTS from the musical GODSPELL. VOCAL SOLO in the KEY OF G (for Alto Voice) with piano accompaniment. This is a pop contemporary arrangement of the song from the beloved popular 1970s musical. The arrangement is similar in style to the original with a more modern take to it. The hymn is predominantly used as a hymn to give thanks to God for the harvest and it has also been used in the United States as a hymn for Thanksgiving. In 1862 in England, Jane Montgomery Campbell translated the original German poem by Matthias Clauduis into English. She translated Wir pflÑŒgen und wir streuen into English as We Plough the Fields and Scatter. The hymn was later published in Charles Bere's Garland of Songs and Children's Chorale Book. And Stephen Schwartz used these lyrics for his setting that was used in GODSPELL. GODSPELL was made into a motion picture in 1973 and has had several revivals in NYC and around the world, the most recent Broadway revival was in 2011. 

This arrangement is available in the KEY of A (for Mezzo Soprano or Bass Voice), KEY of C (for Soprano or Baritone), KEY of D (for Tenor Voice), KEY of G (for Alto Voice).
