Wonderful variety and expressiveness characterize this arrangement of the well-known hymn. It begins in majestic E-flat Major with the bass bells playing the melody. Then it moves to a contrasting c minor and next to C Major with just chimes playing. Finally it modulates to an F Major with moving eighth notes that build in intensity to the finish. 87 measures.
