We had never sung Stephen Dean's eschatological hymn before - I think it is one of his strongest pieces - and it fitted with the readings about the end times. We have done the Huijbers before - and I am always struck by its simplicity and effectiveness - on paper it is a mundane idea, descending chords and a 3 part echo but it works.
