This arrangement is a transcription of my 2018 recording of the traditional spiritual, "Give Me Jesus."

My original recording of the arrangement with lyrics is available at https://youtu.be/vC1FTN-x97w. Visit my youtube channel, http://www.youtube.com/RickBetts, for this and other songs.

An early transcription of this melody can be found online in the mid-1800s book, "The Story of the Jubilee Singers, with Their Songs" (song #17). There may be earlier versions available that I am unaware of. As with most spirituals and folk songs, there are many variations on this simple and beautiful tune and lyrics, and no single "right" way to play it or sing it; there are especially lots of opportunities for creativity in the syncopation and melismatic embellishment of the melody. The song has seen a rise in familiarity in recent years with popular recordings by Jeremy Camp, Fernando Ortega, Danny Gokey, Vince Gill, and others. I hope you enjoy playing my arrangement, and I encourage you to listen to other versions of the song for ideas to incorporate into your interpretation.
