"All Praise to Thee, Eternal God"

"All Praise to Thee, Eternal God" (The Lutheran Hymnal #80) was one of the hymns in the Worship Anew service for 28 July 2019.  (In November of the previous year, I'd recorded the tune used for it:  "Gelobet seist du, Jesu.")  I noticed a small connection between the text and the tune, specifically in the third musical phrase:

In the third verse, the text here is "Forlorn and lowly is Thy birth."  The melody descends a whole octave, almost like a bow, and this gives a sense of that humility.
