Hymn tune O master let me walk with thee

[radstockjeff]

I have recently come across a setting to this hymn which I had not heard before and wondered if anyone could enlighten me please.
The attached is an outline which I managed to fill in but bars 10, 11 and 12 are a little doubtful.

Try Googling it. There's a lot on line.

This video claims to be of the 1879 version of the hymn, although I cannot verify that myself.

This page says that Washington Gladden, who wrote the text of the hymn, said he wanted it to be set to Maryton.

Thank you for the replies. Yes I was aware that Maryton was the preferred tune but as with many hymns other tunes are used in different hymn collections.
The setting which I am looking for was used by The Melbourne Staff Band Singers in a recoding which I heard recently so I presume it may heve been a special S A arrangement.
Will keep trying.

Ah sorry I'd misunderstood you.

I managed to find the page on discogs which says which recording it may have been on. Unfortunately it doesn't give much more information.

The band you mention has a Facebook page. Perhaps you can message them and ask?

UPDATE:

I might actually have found it. When I found the album that it was on on discogs, I was able to find an image of the back of the album online.

It says it was 'Tune: Golden Slumbers, arrangement Norman Bearcroft.'

I can't find Golden Slumbers online. However I could find Golden Slippers by Norman Bearcroft. I wonder if they are the same?

OK, if you google Norman Bearcroft and Golden Slumbers a few versions do turn up, just nothing audio or video that I can share with you.

Thanks Stanwix England.
Definitely not Golden Slippers (Cornet solo)  but I will now search for Golden Slumbers.
Appreciate your helpful investigations.
