Subject: RE: As Jacob with travel was weary
Thanks, Masato. Is the OBC tune substantially the one I MID2TXTed?
Incidentally, I have found it online described as a Christmas carol. Is there any evidence it has ever so been used, or is this just the result of somebody not realizing (or not believing) that there can be any other kinds of carols?
Also, anybody know what text(s) used this tune before the Methodists got hold of it?
