Should this be played on a bass or contrabass tuba?

Did you know that "All Glory, Laud and Honor" can be sung to the tune of "Gee, Officer Krupke" from West Side Story?

I asked my teacher, and he said that this is not the official hymn of the TNFJ.

Actually, the following tunes work just as well:
Amazing Grace
They Call the Wind Mariah
O Susanna
The theme to 'Gilligan's Island'
(And my personnal favorite) Boris the Spider (by The Who)
