Oops, did not quite thoroughly read everything.

Evening Hymn by West is a different tune than Evening Shade by Jenks. Both do use the same words. Evening Hymn has been reprinted in the Northern Harmony & is lovely.

I haven't heard Jean's version either, so I don't know which tune hers might have been based on. Of course, it could be a different tune entirely since the whole idea of the tuneless books was to use any tune in the correct meter that fit.

Getting back to Liland's original question. toadfrog linked to 2 sites with the same 7 extra verses & those same were posted in an earlier thread here. Does anyone know what the 'source' of that particular combination of added verses is?

Jean, your 6 for Amazing Grace are Newton's originals & the 7th is a pretty much universal addition now. I'm curious as to how far it might go back in oral tradition. 1909 is the earliest date I know of for it's being in print with Amazing Grace.
