The
above
is
one
the
oldest
American
tunes.
Some
claim
it
is
an
English
tune,
older
than
any
of
the
American
composers
of
Billings
and
others.
It
was
in
the
first
"Sacred
Harp"
by
White
and
King
1844
and
in
all
revisions
up
to
1869,
also
"Missouri
Harmony"
and
in
other
American
publications.
None
of
these
books
gives
any
idea
of
the
author
of
the
music.
The
hymn
was
composed
by
Isaac
Watts,
1707
under
title
"The
Blessing
of
Gospel
Times."
The
hymn
has
six
verses,
See
other
sketches
of
Isaac
Watts,
one
of
the
greatest
hymn
writers
of
the
world.
