“A Child Of The King” is arranged here as an easy piano solo with the hymn melody placed clearly in the right hand and simple left-hand support underneath. The score uses large notation, lyrics under the melody, and finger numbers throughout, making the arrangement direct and readable while still keeping the full hymn character.

Measures 1–10 present the first half of the hymn verse. The right hand carries the melody in mostly simple rhythms, including dotted-quarter motion and small stepwise figures. The left hand supports with long held notes, giving the arrangement a steady foundation without adding a complicated accompaniment pattern.

Measures 11–19 continue the verse and move toward the chorus. The right hand keeps the melody clear with short repeated-note patterns and small melodic turns, while the left hand continues to use mostly sustained bass notes. The texture stays very open, so the words and melody remain the main focus.

Measures 20–24 present the closing chorus phrase, “With Jesus, my Savior, I’m a child of the King.” The right hand finishes the hymn tune with a simple melodic line, while the left hand supports the final cadence with longer notes and a fuller final harmony. The ending is simple and settled, matching the easy piano style of the arrangement.

Interesting fact: “A Child of the King” has remained in many hymnals for well over a century. Hymnary lists the text with Harriet E. Buell as the author and shows it appearing across many different hymnals and church song collections. (Hymnary)
