Just a Closer Walk with Thee--a Christian camp meeting song by Folk Song Piano Solo - Digital Sheet Music

By Folk Song

Grandma says, "Swing it, Sister!" whenever she hears Just a Closer Walk with Thee.  This arrangement is an intermediate version of the familiar ragtime/New Orleans style gospel song, and it does, indeed, need a little swing! Practice hint:  play hands separately a time or two.  You'll find the left hand is really quite easy, so practice that right hand to get the rhythmic swing going. Also, the quarter note is set at 72 beats per minutes, but if you use a metronome, start off by counting 8th notes at 144. It's much easier to feel that beat then add your swing and go to town!   (Key of C, no key change, approximately 1:50 minutes but it can go faster or slower, 4 pages)
