There are some melodies that take you back to the 1,000 times you heard it, and this is one. We’ll learn two solos for the classic hymn “Near the Cross,” one in waltz time and one in 4/4.

Can you teach There Is Something About That Name?
Hi, I’m fairly new to the guitar but I’ve taken in person banjo lessons for several months with someone in our area. I’m now signed up with Banjo Ben lessons and I love it all! I’m trying to do Jesus keep me near the cross on guitar with Banjo Ben finger picking and I’ve been practicing it for a couple weeks! I’ve finally made it to measure 19 yay!!! But I can’t figure out what he means by a 16th note pull off on measure 19.
I have rewinded and slowed him doing it over and over and can’t see what he’s doing. I would appreciate anyones help. Please be patient as I haven’t been doing guitar lessons long at all. I’ve practiced my chords and learned most and have them pretty smooth and was surprised with lots of practice that I could do this song because it’s hard for me being new!!! But sooo beautiful … would appreciate any help 
Thanks!
