The song “The Parting Glass” was popularized in the 1960’s by Irish balladeer Tommy Makem, although as both a discrete tune and a descendant of (Scottish) airs, it appears to have been considerably older.

The version in abc notation below is a march-time setting. The American shape-note hymns “Clamanda,” printed in The Sacred Harp and other shape-note hymnals, and “Social Band” in Southern Harmony, are both similar in parts. “Clamanda,” (see notation) is printed in Jackson’s Spiritual Folk-Songs of Early America (1953), wherein he states that the English folk-song “Just as the Tide was Flowing” has an almost identical tune, as does an Christmas carol beginning “Come all ye faithful Christians, That dwell within this land…”
