This is an arrangement of the song "Happy Birthday Jesus" written by Carol Cymbala, conductor of the famous Brooklyn Tabernacle Choir. The simplicity of the words for this tune are echoed in the brief statement of "My Jesus I Love Thee" and paired with the melody of "Thou dids´t leave Thy throne"
No 334 Song arrangement - Thou Shalt Know Him
by Mark Sirett, trs Andreas Ålöv
This is a transcription of Mark Sirett´s beautiful vocal piece for SATB Choir. It plays on the very human expectation of Jesus as the conqering warrior king and turns it on its head with the following words:
Thou shalt know Him when he comes
Not by any din of drums,
Nor His manners, nor His airs,
nor by any thing he wears"
