A lot of feminine rhymes that are masculine ones in disguise, though special shoutouts to "unswerving" and "undeserving." Not just for the "double negative," as it were, but because "swerve" as a one-syllable verb is pretty rare in a hymnal context, so the conjugation is justified.

Time signature is in 6/4, but a lot of phrases start in the middle of a long measure. So sometimes you'll see a note appear as sharp early in a measure, then natural again in the next phrase because we haven't started a new measure to "reset" the original key signature. I'm not sure if the different stresses are really that noticeable, it might have been easier just to arrange it in 3/4 so you're starting a new measure twice as often :p
