Kevin Mayhem — sorry, Mayhew— playing fast and loose with the hymns again I see. Deeply grieving? Well yes, there will be much grief, but the original words are “deeply wailing” and that’s what I sang and shall continue to sing!
Think Jonah! Think Moby Dick!! Think whatever you will, friends, but the tune of this hymn simply lends itself to deeply wailing in the deepest of wailing tones; and deep oceanic wailing there shall certainly be!!!
