Four versions of this double chant are known. Three are found in the Cambridge University Library archive:
- The earliest version (undated) appears to be the double chant for Psalm 75. ATBB & organ in A major.
- Then we have double chant for Psalm 75. SATBrB & organ in D major and the version for SATBrB & organ in E flat major. These versions might be assumed to date from the period 1982-1989 when the Gonville & Caius College Choir added a soprano line.
The chant is also published as Psalm 102 in the St. Paul's Psalter (Scott, 1997) in B flat major. That version is not found in the CUL archive.
The St Paul's Psalm 102 version features in a live BBC radio broadcast from St Paul’s Cathedral London, 20 December 1978, with the choir of St Paul’s Cathedral, directed by Barry Rose, and Christopher Dearnley (organ), now published on YouTube by the "Archive of Recorded Church Music". Psalm 102 is at 3:20.
