Thread Name: Origins: martyr's hymn as mentioned in Rowan Tree
Subject: Rowan Tree
In the song 'The Rowan Tree', there is a line:

'How sweet was then my mither's voice in the martyr's psalm'

Does anyone know what the 'martyr's psalm' was. My father, sadly now dead, searched and searched for the meaning without success.
