Composer: Jeremiah Ingalls
Lyricist: Anonymous
Number of voices: 3vv Voicing: STB
Genre: Sacred Meter: 66. 63. 66. 66. 63

First published: 1805 in Ingalls' The Christian Harmony, pp. 47-48, for three voices: Treble-Tenor-Bass
Description: This is a folk hymn (Jackson 1953a, no. 142), based on a 17th-century ballad, Captain Kidd. Considerably revised by Alexander Johnson in 1818, rewritten in A minor for four voices; this revision forms the basis for the three-voice Captain Kidd in Southern Harmony, p. 50. Words by an unknown author, before 1800; nine stanzas in Ingalls 1805. Porter and Garst (1979) found more than twenty tunes in this unusual meter, including the present one.
