==General information==

The tune known today as ''Old hundredth'' is generally attributed to [[Louis Bourgeois|Loys Bourgeois]] and appeared in the second edition of the [[Genevan Psalter]] as a setting for Psalm 134. In English speaking countries it is most closely associated with the singing of the Doxology and [[William Kethe]]'s text ''All people that on earth do dwell'', made famous by [[Ralph Vaughan Williams]] setting for the coronation of Queen Elizabeth II in 1953.
