239 - Hark, the Glad Sound

LBW 35.

The text remains unchanged.

The previous 6-4 time signature has been reinterpreted as a more legible 3-4.

Quite apart from the hymn itself, one notices the distinctive choice of listing authorship information at the bottom of the page where the hymn first appears, not at the end of the hymn (on the facing page). A quick glance shows that this practice is continued throughout.
