Some metrical psalters include melodies or even harmonisations. The composition of metrical psalters was a large enterprise of the Protestant Reformation, especially in its Calvinist manifestation. Mostly used in reformed churches, and anabaptists. Some examples of psalters are: *[[Genevan Psalter]] *German Psalter "des Königlichen Propheten David" *Dutch Psalter Summary: Please note that all contributions to Christianpedia may be edited, altered, or removed by other contributors.
