Asking in my capacity as a writer of new hymn texts...
Are there any tunes you feel are really great, but:
- you don't LOVE the text(s) commonly in use with them
- the good text you like has been popularly associated with some other tune, so it doesn't get sung enough any more
- the commonly associated text is oddly-specific somehow, so doesn't get sung often enough
- for any other reason, the tune could use a new text
?
