[Dialogue] Psalm

[Karenbueno]

The way I remember it,  Terry Wright, my husband at the time, was suffering from some sort of psychosis.  In the 70s we knew little about mental disease compared to today.  I read Psalm 13 from a traditional translation, and it just sang itself to "500 miles". "Lord I'm one, lord, I'm two, lord I'm three hundred miles..."  (change to " How long, O Lord, will you quite forget me, How long will you turn your face from me?")  It spoke to the grief I was experiencing when my talented, intelligent, educated husband became an unknown self.  So I sang it to some others and it "got into history".

Thank you for your inspiration. What is the story for how this came about?

We (Pat and I) sang psalm 13 to the tune 500 miles this sunday in church.  People were addressed.  Who came up with this genius version?_______________________________________________
