"Hymns of Evan Stephens"
Evan Stephens believed that nature and divinity are inseparable and that the natural world in which we live is by itself a testament of the Almighty. Brother Stephens's hymns gush with sweet melodies and lyrics about love for his home in Utah, about his unwavering faith, and about his hope for the future. He served as director of the Mormon Tabernacle Choir for 26 years and eventually penned "Utah, We Love Thee," the official state song since 1937. Ref. Source 4
