I see you counted more “Amen”s in the King James at 1197 than I found. So much the better!

Be assured i did not do the counting, but used the E-Sword.net King James Concordance module, but which often leaves out the primary rendering.

I didn't physically count them either but just used Blue Letter Bible to get a count of the number of verses containing the English rendering "Amen."

And of course I strongly agree with boatbums that parsing out the phrases which are rooted in Scripture is indeed a tremendous amount of work. I'm so glad you took on the project for that side of the challenge. It was quite informative. Again, thank you!

The challenge would have been straight forward if only actual Scripture quotes (cited passages) were to be counted.

I cannot imagine the amount of work it would entail to find all the Scriptural sources backing up this well known sermon and the song I linked earlier. LOLOL!
