Brian Moss - I Greet Thee Who My Sure Redeemer Art

Little is known about the story of I Greet Thee, Who My Sure Redeemer Art." This hymn has been attributed to John Calvin, from the Strasbourg Psalter of 1545. One of the primary reasons for not attributing it to Calvin is that the hymn is not found in any of the later psalters. Plus, the basis of the hymn does not come from any Psalm text [because Calvin in his latter life stressed the regulative principle in worship restricting worship to the Psalms]. But, regardless of the hymnwriter, it is a solid hymn that has much to say to today's culture. The words are traditionally sung to the tune TOULON, the tune for Psalm 124 in the Genevan Psalter.

Sound wasn't working for me on this. Too bad, because I like what you have to say about the hymn and its origins.
