This tune is perfect for noter playing- very traditional- is it a hymn?

Jim your dulcimer here has the most wonderful slide-y sliver tone... like water flowing over rocks.

  the best description of certain kinds of dulcimer playing I've ever heard-there's a song or tune in there"water flowing over rocks".

Jim, somehow I missed this back in '17-- and really enjoyed hearing this in '19!  Your posting got me doing a little looking and found this link:

Sounds very similar to 'Drover's Reel'  aka 'McCarty'  ...

Thanks @Bill-S and @Nick-Sherwood it's been a while since I've played that tune. Jogged my memory again.

 Thanks, Lisa. I don't believe it is a hymn.
