With a nice opportunity to feature a lyric soloist, this paring of the beautiful BEACH SPRING hymn tune and the beloved What a Friend We Have in Jesus text is a gem from start to finish. Excellent part-writing supported by an elegant piano accompaniment make this a fine choice for worship service or concert for almost any experienced youth or adult choir. This piece should be in your library.
The Bottom Line
Pros
A twist from the expected, this paring of a familiar text and an unexpected, but equally familiar tune make this a winner.
