This hymn tune is early American, composer unknown. The text for There's a Wideness.... has been set to several other melodies, most notably Wellesley but I found this version in the Evangelical Lutheran Church hymnal (ELW 588) and was attracted by the pentatonic folk melody. This setting incorporates Coplanesque harmonies and some bluegrass-like violins. The tune is also sometimes known as Lord Revive Us.
