Dick Wisan HYMNS and Folk Tunes? (94* d) RE: HYMNS and Folk Tunes? 11 Nov 98


A few weeks ago, I was caught in an interclickal stop on the TV by a choir singing something with a wonderful tune. Very failiar tune. Then I got it.. last line of every verse was "To revive us again".

Tune was "Hallelujah I'm a Bum" (& yes, they Hallelujaed in the Hymn, too). The "Hallelujay" and "to revive us again" suggest to me that it was a hymn first. Anybody know? Anybody know the words to the hymn version?
