William Billings (b. Boston, October 7, 1746 – d. Boston, September 26, 1800) was an American choral composer, and is widely regarded as the father of American choral music.  Originally a tanner by trade, and lacking formal training in music, Billings created what is now recognized as a uniquely American style. 

This piece features the tuba and was adapted from the Sacred Harp, 3rd ed. 1860
