This index lists the tune name given to each hymn in the
hymnbook. Traditionally a hymn tune is somewhat independent of
any particular text.
Texts and tunes of the same meter may be interchanged. For this
reason, each tune in the hymnbook has its own name, separate
from the title of the text.
The tune name—usually a single word or short phrase—may come
from a family name, a place, or a word relating to the text for
which it was created.
