I was in touch with a few Swedish music enthusiasts, through You-tube and facebook... crazy who you'll meet... and they remember Gammal Fabodpsalm from their earliest childhood. Indeed it is mostly sung in community (church) choirs and they say that words exist, but that they have rarely heard the words.
Interestingly, a You-Tube search will bring up many wonderful renditions, including fantastic sopranos with organ or with choir, and they choose not to sing the lyrics.
It's just a beautiful tune. Now that my endurance is returning, I'll probably want to rework the MIDI accompaniment and re-record it at a slower, tempo. i guess I should give it a year to mature.
