    I am preparing my fifth novel for publication and have a question I hope you can answer. In my novel, a character quotes the second verse of “I am His and He is Mine” , (music by James Mountain.)

    Do you know if this hymn is in public domain, or should I get copyright permission? If so, from whom?

    Thank you so much.

      Glad for an easy question for a change. (I get some dandies!) An Irishman named George Robinson wrote the hymn in 1876. The song is long in the public domain. Copy at will! And all the best with the novel.
