God’s Own Child, I Gladly Say It
John A. Behnke's arrangement of the beloved hymn is set to the tune BACHOFEN and is scored for 3–5 octave handbells.
John A. Behnke’s arrangement of the beloved hymn is set to the tune BACHOFEN and is scored for 3–5 octave handbells. A motive of two martellato chords on beats three and four runs throughout the piece and emphasizes the power of Baptism in our lives, while the addition of the tune JESU, MEINE FREUDE is a wonderful C-minor surprise in the middle as it interacts with the original theme. Level II.
