The song's popularity may come from the works of the composer and arranger, Noah F. Ryder:
1939,"Modern Spiritual Arrangement Series for Mixed Voices," Handy Bros. Music Co., NY
Title used is "My Lord Is So High."
His arrangements are much used by choirs and choral groups.

Or, more recently: Moses Hogan, choral director (Arrangements at Amazon).
Title used is "My God Is So High."

Willie Pickens, jazz pianist made a fine arrangement of the song; "Jazz Spirit," vol. 1.
