Also known by the titles "Jesus Wants Me for a Sunbeam" and "I'll Be a Sunbeam," this beloved children's hymn text was written by Nellie Talbot for her Sunday School class and set to music in 1900 by composer, publisher, and song leader Edwin O. Excell. A Patricia Hurlbutt's delightful and lilting arrangement utilizes several techniques including TD, mallets, mart lifts, shakes and echoes.
