Is this hymn I've retained below the one that goes (if memory serves) "I
will sing of my Redeemer and His wondrous love to me"? I think of it as
Gospel music from my childhood. Key of Ab, going up to a high Eb toward the
end of the refrain.
The first line's melody notes (in 9/8 meter with 3 pickup notes) are:
Eb-Ab-Bb|C - C - C-Bb-Ab| Bb - Bb - Eb-G-Bb|Db---etc.
I should Google this to determine its origin, but I thought I'd try this
approach. And it gives me the excuse to ask how one, in phonetic English,
pronounces Fy Ngnaredwr .
Good to hear from you, Rick.
