I Want Jesus To Walk With Me
$29.95
African American spirituals are a rich part of our nation’s history – offering songs of hope for the oppressed as well as soulful hymns for the Church. “I Want Jesus to Walk With Me” is one such spiritual. While the text references many trials that must be endured, it maintains a sense of hope. It is a prayer to God to be with us throughout all our life, and with Jesus, we will overcome the trials.
The tune follows a similar pattern. Even though the melody is in a minor key, the repetitive form and quick tempo portray an upbeat thought, despite the trials that are being depicted.
