for SATB and organ
This is a majestic setting of the popular hymn 'O God beyond all praising' to Holst's tune 'Thaxted', which is adapted from a theme in 'Jupiter' from The Planets. Wilberg's beautiful treatment of the first three-note figure of the famous tune builds gradually into a rich, soaring four-part texture.
