Nearer My God to Thee, harp
Nearer My God to Thee, harp
The traditional hymn tune, "Bethany" by Lowell Mason is a common setting for the well-loved hymn, NEARER MY GOD TO THEE. The lyrics were written by Sarah Flower Adams in 1841.
I have created this early intermediate harp arrangement to be played on 28 strings or larger (lowest note is F). Your score includes includes a BONUS version in G Major with the lowest note G.
In this relaxing arrangement you will use the flowing 1-5-8-9-10 patterns in the left hand to accompany the right hand melody, which has fingering suggestions and brackets included.
The video below features the Marini Made 28-string bass LAP harp in the key of F Major.
