Description: Published in Ingalls' Christian Harmony, 1805, pp. 76-77, for three voices: Treble-Tenor-Bass. A folk hymn (Jackson 1953b, no. 346). See David Music (1995) for a discussion of the history of this tune. Words by an anonymous author, first published 1793, sometimes attributed to George Askins (died 1816), unlikely since he emigated to the United States in 1801 (Richard Hulan, in Steel and Hulan 2010). Most often (as in Ingalls 1805) it appears with three stanzas.
