Overview

A New Metrical Version of the Psalms of David, by Basil Woodd, presents a fresh rendering of the Psalms alongside select hymns tailored for use within the United Church of England and Ireland. Published in 1821, this collection offers a metrical interpretation of the Psalms, making them accessible for congregational singing and personal devotion. Woodd's work aims to enhance the worship experience by providing a version of the Psalms that resonates with contemporary musical sensibilities while remaining faithful to the original texts. This edition includes an appendix featuring additional Psalms and hymns chosen to complement the liturgical calendar and specific services of the Church. The book serves as a valuable resource for clergy, choir directors, and laypersons seeking to enrich their understanding and practice of sacred music. The enduring appeal of the Psalms, combined with Woodd's metrical skill, makes this collection a significant contribution to the tradition of English hymnody.
