Aymlysis. — This, as well as the next preceding song, is a praise 

 song in which new words have been inserted. It is based on the 

 second five-toned scale and is minor in tonality, but the proportion of 

 minor thirds is smaller than in many major songs, 44 per cent of the 

 intervals being minor thirds. The rhythmic unit is the same as the 

 first unit in the next preceding song. 



1 This word was shortened by the singer.
