Interpretation notes:

• The hymn uses a gentle melodic contour and a 9/8 meter. 

• The first two lines stay within a narrow range between E-flat and B-flat, with 'I must tell Jesus' moving from low E-flat to the fifth degree. 

• Line 3 begins on the highest note of the hymn, high E-flat, and repeated E-flat notes highlight the phrase 'I must tell Jesus.' 

• The accidentals add harmonic contrast near the end of the hymn.
