Product Description

Heres a fresh medium-voice arrangement of the classic gospel song written by bass-baritone George Beverly Shea. It is appropriate for any setting where sacred music is welcomed. This arrangement is also available on this site for high voice. Shea wrote the tune for Id Rather Have Jesus at age 23. Hed been offered a well-paying job as a singer on NBCs Your Hit Parade, and he was struggling with whether to choose a secular singing career or to stick with singing in churches and on Christian radio. He turned down the job offer, stuck with sacred music, and eventually took a role as the main vocalist with the Billy Graham Evangelistic Crusades. Id Rather Have Jesus became his signature tune. It was featured on his first release from RCA records, and because of his role with Billy Graham, it is thought that he sang live before more people than anyone else in history.

This product was created by a member of ArrangeMe, Hal Leonard's global self-publishing community of independent composers, arrangers, and songwriters.
