This Andante is taken from the violin concerto by Felix Mendelssohn. The piece begins simply, but soon builds in emotional intensity. The handbell arranger accomplished this through added more bells and increasing the dynamic. Bell changes will need some work as will sixteenth-note rhythms, but all well work the effort of the finished work. 91 measures in length, this arrangement is set in C Major.

An optional three, full octaves of handchimes are intermingled with the bells in this original work inspired by Christ's prayer in Gethsemane. The chimes are optional, but extra effort should be made to include them, as they add so much to the contemplative nature of the work. The gamut of Christ's emotions is portrayed through quiet, building, and strong passages. Finally, in the last ten measures, one can almost hear Jesus say, Thy will be done. 81 measures.
