Music has a way of healing people. James Leith  Macbeth Bain knew that. 
Born in Scotland in 1840, he was known to his friends as simply Brother James. He was a musician, poet, a mystic, and had a great interest in healing. In 1906 he published a book called “The Brotherhood of Healing.” 
His song Brother James Air was first published in 1915 as part of a New Year’s greeting. He founded the Brotherhood of Healers, where he and his fellow healers would often sing to their patients during healing sessions. He spent the latter years of his life working with the underprivileged in Liverpool, England. 
So, do YOU have a need for healing (and do you believe in miracles?)  Do you believe it’s possible to heal, especially during a pandemic? 
For example, do you believe you can listen to a song one night, then sit down and play it the next night without any sheet music? 🎹
Well, it’s possible, even in a pandemic. And the process has a healing element to it. 
I listened to the Tabernacle Choir at Temple Square‘s beautiful rendition of “Brother James’s Air” last night. Recognizing that my son is named James, and the beautiful way the Choir and Orchestra at Temple Square performed it, it just stuck in my mind.
Given that I had no sheet music—and I probably couldn’t play it if I did—the process I used to help organize the song was simple:
1. I used dots to outline the melody first.
2. I drew vertical lines do identify the various segments.
3. I labeled each segment.
4. I grouped the segments together into 5 repeatable sections.
5. I then laid out the sections in order at the bottom of the page. (That was a quick reminder to me of what was coming next while I played.)
It took me probably 60 attempts to record the song until I finally got it right. Sometimes my mind would wander and I would forget what chord came next, sometimes I would accidentally hit a wrong note, and sometimes I would inadvertently skip a whole section. In each case, I had to start over. 60 times. But I’m glad I did...
In total, I probably spent four hours on this project. I would guess 3 1/2 of those hours were the repeated attempts to try and play it right.
Do you believe in miracles? In my case, they tend to happen with a little bit of inspiration and an awful lot of perspiration. But they happen. Thank God! 🙏
I hope you enjoy this arrangement.🎶
