Description: This setting was published as tune 212 on p159 of Thomas Clark's book The Congregational Harmonist, Book 2, No. 9, London: [1828-1836]. The tune is attributed 'T. Clark' in The Congregational Harmonist, and is marked with a crossed circle, a symbol used in that book to indicate 'originals' (i.e. tunes not previously published).
The same text was previously set by Clark to a different tune in his collection A Fifth Set of Psalm Tunes, London: [c1813].
