Tune Information

• Name: TIDINGS
• Composer: James Walch (1875)
• Meter: 11.10.11.10 with refrain
• Key: B♭ Major
• Notes: When singing all the stanzas, the refrain should be sung only after sts. 2, 4, and 6. Odd- and evennumbered stanzas may be sung antiphonally by two different groups, with all joining on the refrain. It is intentional that 104C and 103B are set to the same tune. There is a close connection between these two psalms, which are both framed by the exclamation “Bless the Lord, O my soul.”
