"I Know My Faith Is Founded"
I wrote about a small feature in "I Know My Faith Is Founded" about a year ago
, but when it was one of the hymns on Worship Anew last month (
5 October, Seventeenth Sunday after Pentecost
), I noticed something else.
The fourth line of the first verse is "Unmoved I stand on His sure Word," sung to this musical phrase from the tune "Nun lob, mein' Seel'":
The words "Unmoved I stand" are all sung to the same pitch, and this musical constancy matches the meaning.
