[lit-ideas] Dykes/Hodges -- Hymn Tune?

I fail to remember if this, in recognised hymn-books, is listed with the  
kakophonic Ode-To-Joy, or has it got a shorter, memorable, more Latin  motto?

Edward Hodges should not be confused with John S. B. Hodges, another  
hymnodist.
 
I could never play this hymn when I'm in C. of E. -- it's too  Beethovianish, 
and circular in musical _sense_. But I enjoyed Yost's  parody.
 

Cheers,

JL
 
 
Words: Hen­ry J. van Dyke, 1907. Van Dyke wrote this hymn while  
stay­ing at the home of Har­ry A. Gar­field at Wil­liams  
Col­lege, Mass­a­chu­setts. It was first pub­lished in the  
Pres­by­ter­i­an Hymn­al in 1911. "These vers­es are  
sim­ple ex­press­ions of com­mon Christ­ian feel­ings  
and 
de­sires in this pre­sent time—hymns of to­day that may be sung  
to­ge­ther by peo­ple who know the thought of the age, and are not  
afraid that any truth of sci­ence will de­stroy re­li­gion, or  
any re­vo­lu­tion on earth over­throw the king­dom of  
hea­ven. There­fore this is a hymn of trust and joy and hope.
 

Music: Hymn to Joy, from the 9th Sym­pho­ny of Lud­wig van  
Beet­ho­ven; adapt­ed by Ed­ward Hodg­es, 1824
