Holy, Holy, Holy! Lord God Almighty
Portrait of Reginald Heber, c.1822
- ... that the tune for "Holy, Holy, Holy! Lord God Almighty", composed by John Bacchus Dykes on a text by Reginald Heber (pictured), bears resemblances with a 16th-century Lutheran chorale, Wachet auf, ruft uns die Stimme by Philipp Nicolai?
- ALT1:... that "Holy, Holy, Holy! Lord God Almighty", written by future Anglican bishop Reginald Heber (pictured), was first published when hymn singing was prohibited in Church of England liturgy?
- Reviewed: Temple Memorial Park
- Comment: Shortlist this for June 7th (Trinity Sunday, for which this hymn was written...)
5x expanded by RandomCanadian (talk). Self-nominated at 18:45, 18 May 2020 (UTC).
This article is a five-fold expansion and is new enough and long enough. The hook facts are cited inline, the article is neutral, and I was unable to identify any copyright issues. A QPQ needs to be done and then this will be ready to go. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 06:30, 19 May 2020 (UTC)
- The QPQ was not strictly necessary as this is only my second nomination; but it has been done. Re. my initial comment about the suggested date: I assume that's ok? RandomCanadian (talk | contribs) 14:44, 19 May 2020 (UTC)
Approving ALT1 only, because I couldn't find the hook fact in the source given for ALT0. I will move this to the special holding area to appear on June 7th. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 15:26, 19 May 2020 (UTC)
- @Cwmhiraeth: It's in the section "Tune" at the linked reference (beginning with "The tune NICAEA is named after the Council of Nicaea (A.D. 325) at which church leaders [...]") Thanks, RandomCanadian (talk | contribs) 16:40, 19 May 2020 (UTC)
- I am looking at your #3 reference and still don't see it, although by clicking "Go to tune page >" there is a bit more. Anyway, ALT1 is a more interesting hook, in my opinion. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 17:35, 19 May 2020 (UTC)
- It's there when you click "Go to tune page >" but you have to scroll down a bit. In any case, if you think ALT1 is better, I see no problem with that. Cheers, RandomCanadian (talk | contribs) 23:40, 19 May 2020 (UTC)
