Review:
"Be Thou My Vision" is a quiet, yet captivating arrangement by Dan R. Edwards of the Irish tune SLANE for 2–3 octave handbells, featuring clever interplay between the melody and original material reminiscent of the land of its origin. This hymn is a common favorite and its tune is also found in the Lutheran Service Book with “Christ Be My Leader” and “Lord of All Hopefulness.” 75 measures. Key of G Major.
