Last year, I noticed a small feature in "Sing Praise to God, the Highest Good," specifically in the line "With healing balm our souls He fills" in the first verse. It's sung to this phrase from the tune "Lobt Gott den Herren, ihr":
"Fills" is sung to a dotted half note that takes up the entire measure. Musically, then, there's a representation of that "fill[ing]."
In looking over the hymn again in order to write this post, I also discovered a merism in the second verse: "By morning glow or evening shade / His eye is never sleeping." A merism is a rhetorical device in which two ends of a range are named as a way to refer to the entirety, so here, while "morning" and "evening" are what are mentioned specifically, the idea includes all of the time between them too.
