We had a brief discussion about whether Michael Joncas' melody for the Dudley Smith text Spirit of God within me is a good tune. Down Ampney (the tune of Come down, O love divine is obviously a model with a similar flattened seventh. I think it has greater rhythmic flexibility but my stumbling block is always the last 3 notes — 3 repeated high D flats. Not that high but not that comfortable for a hymn tune.
