The Hymnary.org site suggest 3 tunes for "I Feel the Winds of God Today" - Kingsfold, Landas (Mount Vernon), and a Norwegian folk tune
if you go to this link: https://hymnary.org/search?qu=textAuthN ... gInstances
you should find an entry that gives the 3 possibilities
or just go to Hymnary.org and put in that first line I feel the winds of God today
The Norse version played on piano is not quite skippy enough but a lot closer to what I remember
Hope that helps
We sung it at a Quaker School in New Zealand NZ Friends School (long closed now) out of a green Presbyterian song book. It is the only hymn I loved enough to still sing.

'I feel the winds of God today' was our school hymn at St Denis & Cranley School, Edinburgh, sung with great spirit to the tune Petersham.

Was the Scottish tune you were thinking of called Landas?

The Strathroy video is the wrong tune, Kingsfold, not the Scottish one. I don't know the name of it chaslevy but I can sing it in my sleep as it was the school hymn for St Denis & Cranley, Edinburgh. I keep looking but like you, always find the Kingsfold version not the Scottish one. The Church of Scotland hymnbook should have the name of the tune, but sadly I don't have one.

Check out Youtube from the Strathroy United Church on June 3 2012 and you will hear I Feel the Winds of God Today by their choir. :)

This hymn is usually sung to Ralph Vaughan Williams' tune "Kingsfold". However, I remember singing it to an old Scottish tune which I remember, but whose name I have forgotten. Any help in finding the name or a recording of the hymn to that tune would be appreciated.
Thanks.
Charles
