Description: Volume 3 of The Congregational Harmonist (consisting of numbers 17-24) was advertised on p12 of No. 1 of The Musical World, on 18 March 1836. No. 28 of The Congregational Harmonist was advertised on p128 of No. 48, Vol. 4, of The Musical World, on 10 February 1837. Bearing these dates in mind, it seems likely that no. 27 of The Congregational Harmonist was published during 1836.

This setting is attributed 'T. Clark' in The Congregational Harmonist, where it is marked with a crossed circle, a symbol used in that book to indicate 'originals' (i.e. tunes not previously published).

Variants of the same text (beginning 'Come, we that love the Lord' or 'Come, ye that love the Lord') were set to at least three other tunes by Thomas Clark, including:

  • Sunderland, in A Sett of Psalm and Hymn Tunes, London: [1805]
  • Wormley, in Clark's Sixth Set of Hymn Tunes, London: [c1811]
  • Morley, in An Eighth Set of Psalm & Hymn Tunes, London: [c1817]
