This Shawn Gingrich arrangement of the William Hays title is arranged for 3-6 octaves of handbells and is scored at a moderate tempo. The first verse is primarily straightforward with bass chords accompanying the melody. The second and third verses add plucking/malleting for an extra peppy feel. Shaking and full chords result in a triumphant ending. 61 measures. Key of Eb Major.
