No evidence found of any notability, the sources given are passing mentions or not independent, and no sources seem to have given indepth attention to this hymn. Fram (talk) 08:59, 8 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: This is - unlike many of Bone's songs - one that is still in a current prominent hymnal, and gets sung. I'd simply say let's redirect it to Cantate! if it had not been set by composers, see DNB. I'll try to find more sources. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 10:54, 8 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to Cantate! as per comment by Gerda Arendt. The article appears not to meet notability criteria at WP:NSONG - I cannot find any sources of which the song is the primary subject, most web results are simply the song's lyrics. If more sources can be found, the article could be kept, though. Redtree21 (talk) 12:35, 8 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

redirect hard to source per Redtree21, but Gerda Arendt is right, it is still prominent enough to be kept FortunateSons (talk) 21:04, 8 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to Cantate! per the above. It might be worth merging a line, but not more. Unless someone can find more or better sources than are in the article at the moment (I couldn't) there aren't enough to support an article. Eluchil404 (talk) 01:51, 15 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
