I'm working on indexing Alton Howard's Songs of Faith and Praise (SFP1994) and have come across an unusual item. #924 is the standard “Just As I Am” paired with WOODWORTH (JUST AS I AM in that hymnal), but directly after “Just As I Am” and before #925 is a second hymn. It has the heading “Worthy Is the Lamb (sung to the tune of ”Just As I Am")" The tune is not reprinted for this second hymn, and no number is given for this hymn. 
How should this hymn be treated? Should it be given a number like “924b”?

Number #924 as #924a and “Worthy is the Lamb” as 924b. You may add the tune WOODWORTH to “Worthy Is the Lamb” since the hymnal indicates that it should be sung with this tune, or just add a note.
