Be Thou But Near

Review:      Give special attention to dynamics on this tune , which is one of Bach's loveliest, as it builds to a climax in the middle then ends quietly as it began. The treble clef rings mostly in octaves. The quarter note = 63 for the tempo, and choirs should strive for musical expression. A total of 75 measures, this piece is arranged in C Major.
