Product Description
This easy level arrangement of What a Friend We Have in Jesus is written for Flute, with chord symbols and full lyrics included in the score, making it ideal for beginner and early-intermediate players, teachers, churches, and educational settings. The hymn was written by Joseph M. Scriven (1855) with music by Charles C. Converse, and is one of the most beloved Christian hymns worldwide.
In this arrangement, the flute carries the complete main melody in a comfortable register, using simple rhythms and stepwise melodic motion that support breath control, tone development, and expressive phrasing. The chord symbols reinforce harmonic understanding and allow optional accompaniment by piano, guitar, or ensemble. The calm and devotional character of the hymn is fully preserved, making it suitable for solo performance, worship services, teaching, and church repertoire study.
