Can anyone remember the hymns they sung at church or the songs they sung at school?

Hymns
This is the day
One about "though you cross the barren desert, you shall not die of thirst".
Saint La Salle our dearest father.

Songs
Baidin fhiliami (spelling of that last word is wrong)
Kelly from Killane
My favourite - The Wests Awake.


A miserable list I know but maybe it can kick start others peoples memory, mine fails me.


As a curious aside, I remember we would have song sheets that were reproduced in the days before photocopies using some technique that meant the words were in a purple colour and there was a god awful smell of ammonia on the paper. I believe the same reprographic technique was used by architects and draughtsmen.
