During the course of them submitting the proposal Salt Lake as a city was really opposed to it. Salt Lake Airport was opposed because they said it’s not the right place for development. They’d be getting noise complaints, etc. and they didn’t want it in their flight path.” After two meetings the Salt Lake County Commission denied it, he said. “There’s never been an application to North Salt Lake. The owners of Cross E Ranch were disappointed. We’d been talking to them about zoning and utilities that would protect Salt Lake County denies their farmland.

  • Come, Thou Fount of Every Blessing: American Folk Hymns and Spirituals
    INTRODUCTION COME, THOU FOUNT OF EVERY BLESSING: AMERICAN FOLK HYMNS AND SPIRITUALS Eloquent, straightforward, and full of homespun vigor, the American folk hymn of the early nineteenth century reflected the robust enthusiasm and hardiness so characteristic of life on the frontier. Simple religious texts, easily learned, were set to popular melodies drawn from folk songs, ballads, and dances of the day, creating a lively hymn tradition that flourished in the camp meet- ings and revivalist gatherings of the “Second Great Awakening.” It was truly a music of the people. Similarly, the African-American spiritual—a close cousin of the folk hymn—expressed the pro- found emotions of the slave experience while drawing on the same musical sources and religious ideals that formed the American folk hymn. Other sacred song traditions also grew from these same roots. The musical worship of the early Mormon Church, for example, often included newly- penned texts sung to popular tunes of the day, and one of the most beloved LDS hymns, “Come, Come, Ye Saints,” is itself an authentic American folk hymn. This recording honors the enduring vitality of these folk hymns and spirituals and their ability to anchor the soul in faith. From the sturdy strains of “Saints Bound for Heaven” and the fervent entreaty of “I Want Jesus to Walk with Me” to one of the most popular folk hymns of all time, “Amazing Grace,” these songs and hymns gave comfort, hope, and confidence to the early American pioneers of two hundred years ago. Their power and simplicity still inspire us today. TRACKS & LYRICS No.1 SAINTS BOUND FOR HEAVEN Our bondage it shall end by and by.

    Right-click and select “Change Picture… from the menu. Select Press Release your image and then delete this text. Former Utah Governor Michael Leavitt Called as New President of The Tabernacle Choir at Temple Square SALT LAKE CITY – The First Presidency of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints has called former Utah governor Michael O. Leavitt as the new president of The Tabernacle Choir at Temple Square. Leavitt will be joined by his wife, Jacalyn, in fulfilling this new role. Leavitt replaces Ron Jarrett, who has served as president of the Choir since August 2012. Bishop Gérald Caussé, the adviser to the Choir, made the announcement to the Choir organization via Zoom today at 10:30 a.m. Reacting to the call he received to become the new Choir president, Leavitt said, “The pleasant surprise has been replaced by gratitude and great optimism. This will be a lovely experience for Jackie and me.” Leavitt is a seasoned leader. He was elected to three terms as governor of Utah and then served twice in the cabinet of President George W. Bush. He was the 10th administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency (2003-2005) and the 20th secretary of Health and Human Services (2005-2009). Among other endeavors since concluding his public service, Leavitt organized Leavitt Partners, a business that advises clients in the health care sector. Jackie Leavitt is a former teacher and served as the first lady of Utah, where she advocated for families and children. She is also an accomplished musician. As president of the Choir, Leavitt hopes to couple his leadership experience with the Choir’s renowned music, which he says has always been a personal conduit for spiritual connection with God.
