I learned this when I was younger, played it on the guitar and sang. Was looking for it to sing for church at Christmas! So happy musicnotes.com had the original version! Always happy with my purchases from this website!

Most of the work is done by the soloist. Accompaniment is written as it should be and needs no improvisation. Be sure to assign to a capable soloist in order to get the most effectiveness.

If you have a good accompanist with you, they can drop the melody from the piano part. It would be nice to have the music without the melody in the accompany line.

The original words have been modified for current usage, otherwise are as MacGimsey wrote them. There are no missing verses. Additional verses have been added by others.

The sheet music downloaded was not the full version. There was no way to tell before buying it. Now I have to go to a music store and try to find this before Christmas Eve.

This is not the same as the sheet music version of this solo. It is quite a bit shorter, and lacks the original performance notes which inform the soloists interpretation.

The whole middle section, indeed the climax of the piece, is omitted. The original version (from memory): "The world treat you mean, Lord; treat me mean, too. But thats how things are down here; we dont know who you are. You have told us, Lord; we are trying. Master you have shown us how, even when you were dying. Just seems like we cant do right, look how we treated you. But please sir, forgive us, Lord, we didnt know twas you." Very disappointed.
