"Words by Charles Wesley, 1749, ''Hymns and Sacred Poems'', Volume 2, Hymn 188, entitled ''The True Use of Music'', with seven stanzas. Jackson points out the aptness of these words, "rationalizing the use of popular secular tunes in the religious environment," for Ingalls' tune was clearly derived from some (unknown) secular song. Ingalls changed the first two words, from ''Listed into'' to ''Enlisted in''."
