#880: O God beyond All Praising

This is a somewhat better-known text to the (excellent) "Jupiter" melody; the "splendor"/"surrender" rhyme is neat, although some of the other feminine rhymes are stretches. The best-known lyrics to this melody might be neither of these; there's a British patriotic song called "I Vow To Thee, My Country" about the honor and duty of serving one's country that's probably a little too pro-war for this volume, even though there's a second verse about "but my real home country is heaven, where my ultimate loyalties are, and no war."
