lutheranhymnsThis one is unusual because the title is actually the last line, rather than the first; almost everything has the title as the first line (which in some cases leads to a lot of near-duplicates. I did a long analysis of "where does the title show up in the lyrics" for my old blog...about a decade ago, it turns out. :o Time flies when you're being a nerd on the internet.
The rhyme scheme at the end is repetitive on the word level: "more/door/more," "need/indeed/need" etc, which doesn't really land for me. In addition, it ends with a "rest" (silent) measure, or rather 2/3 measure to make up for the pick-up note at the beginning. I feel like if it's silent, you don't really need to write it in. But maybe there's an instrumental part that goes there.
