The tune was adapted from that of the Italian song, O Sole Mio, recorded in 1916 by famous by opera star Enrico Caruso. William Emmanuel Booth-Clibborn, the grandson of William Booth, the founder of the Salvation Army, is the lyricist. Down from His Glory is likely more of a solo (and in this case a moving choral selection than a congregational hymn), but it speaks effectively of the Saviour’s willing condescension. The Orchestral Score and SATB/Piano are available on separate posts. (Please contact marilyn@mtmusicministries.com for further information.) ASCAP
