Description

Also known by the titles “Jesus Wants Me for a Sunbeam” and “I’ll Be a Sunbeam,” this beloved children’s hymn text was written by Nellie Talbot for her Sunday School class and set to music in 1900 by composer, publisher, and song leader Edwin O. Excell. Patricia Hurlbutt’s delightful and lilting arrangement utilizes several techniques including TD, mallets, mart lifts, shakes and echoes.
