St. Anthony Chorale
-
This may be a very long shot, but perhaps one of you will pity me. I'm looking for a secular hymn to put to the tune of Brahm's Haydn Variations (apparently now attributed to Pleyel) that would be even more inoffensive than "We your people praise thee"; I've struck out looking for 66 65. 447. 445 in Unitarian hymnals (though I couldn't help noticing W ZLOBIE LEZY comes darn close) and this doesnt really fit the bill either. Btw, has this been set to German words?

The tune you refer to is also the Alma Mater for Northwestern University. I do have it in my computer at church. Send me a message at smc2003@bellsouth.net
