Dispute Information:

We are fully within our rights to use the hymn, "Be Thou My Vision" as it was first seen in The Church Hymnary in 1927 it is older than the date considered to be public domain of 1929 in the United States of America where we are located and where this "Mass with Father Dave" was filmed.  Any claim to this hymn as a cover song by entities foreign or domestic are invalid as no recording was used in its performance--the musicians of the Church of St. Martha performed this hymn.  Any claim to the lyrics/text or music/melody by entities foreign or domestic is also invalid as all were published prior to the date necessary to be considered a work of public domain in the United States of America.  The text was published between 1905 and 1912 and the music/melody was published in 1927.  Thus, the text is also well within the date of 1930 for a work to be considered public domain in the United States of America where this Mass with Father Dave was filmed and the hymn performed.  We are fully within our rights to use this public domain hymn.
