We love the hymn tune, Thaxted. It was written by Gustav Holst and is the theme from Jupiter (The Planets). The tune was used to set patriotic hymns until Ralph Vaughn Williams included the theme as the tune, Thaxted, in his Songs of Praise. This is Wren’s hymn of Comfort for today.

O God beyond all praising, we worship you today and sing the love amazing that songs cannot repay; for we can only wonder at every gift you send, at blessings without number and mercies without end: we lift our hearts before you and wait upon your word, we honor and adore you, our great and mighty Lord.
