I love this hymn when we sing it at church! Well done on creating it @RandomCanadian:! Date, length and hooks all OK. I've just added quote marks for the title. QPQ done (even though not needed), No close paraphrasing. Picture licence fine. Good to go. A fine first nomination! The C of E God Save the Queen! (talk) 17:42, 1 June 2020 (UTC)
