Sometimes when you do research you find stuff that is cool. And sometimes, you find stuff that is really cool. The band The Lonesome Sisters put out a self-titled album in 2006, which includes the song “over the sea” They note:

Chorus Lyrics written by Mrs. L. Matilda Fletcher, found in an 1871 hymnal.

Too cool or what? And the song itself, is lovely.
