I am reminded today of a translation I did in the early 80s for an international peace conference at the Stockholm Concert Hall of this psalm, which was sung in four part harmony by children of Adolf Fredrik's Music School. If anyone out there happens to have a recording, I'd be grateful.
Freedom is God's open hand
To be sought in every land
By one who knows to hold it
By one who knows to hold it.
God has given soul and mind
Better free than chains that bind
With freedom cometh honor
With freedom cometh honor
