Subject: RE: A song dilemma (frozen logger cleanup for school)
Charmion, it does, and that is an excellent example.
It's also an example of a hymn where two slightly different versions are current:
His reign shall stretch from shore to shore
Till moons shall wax and wane no more / Till suns shall rise and set no more.
In this case it's not obvious which is the original and which the changed version (although I could no doubt find out), nor why it was thought necessary to make the change.
