    a Scottish lady came in yesterday and sang the 23rd Psalms to the tune of Amazing Grace.
    I never knew you could do that. She said she had a tape of it.
    Anybody ever heard it?

    I sang Numbers 1:26 to the tune of Bringing in the Sheeves while mowing my yard a couple days ago.

    Have you heard the Blind Boys of Alabama singing the 23rd Psalm to George Clinton’s You and Your Folks?


    Since Psalm 23 as set out in the Scottish Psalter is in Common Metre it can in theory be sung to any tune in that metre - eight beats followed by six beats, then eight and six again. Suitable tunes would include Tallis' 'Ordinal', 'Amazing Grace', Jeremiah Clark's 'St Magnus' and others. Most music copies of hymn books have a metrical index, it's quite illuminating sometimes to look through this.

    Why could you not do it? Hell if I wanted to? I could sing the Hymn to Satan (poem) to the tune of Amazing Grace..
