A hymn is a song of praise to God (or gods, not necessarily Christian) which this song is not.
Many songs in our Christian hymnals have been replaced with newer ones, and most of those old songs (over three hundred years worth) are not sung anymore. Only the future knows the fate of this song.

More important than all of that is that we have peace on earth.
Flambeau dancers light the walkway to Jean Pierre's
There's a party tonight and all the girls are gonna be there
Sipping wormwood concoctions, drinking absinthe and talking trash
It's a red carpet, black tie, all night, celestial bash
I hope your enjoyin' the scen'ry,
I know that it's pretty up there.
We can go hikin on Tuesday,
with you I'd walk anywhere.
California has worn me quite thin,
I just can't wait to see you again.
Is it the answer or just a suggestion
Is love what we truly want or merely a protection
Is this music made to last or crumble like a shell
Is there heaven here on earth or is this really hell?
In the driftwood house you learn how to dream
Truth is stranger that fishin' it seems
Oh oh there's no earthly rules
And the people come to hear him say
Life's too short to live your way
Oh oh who's really fooling who
Invisible means are the key to support
Makes you a king in your own court
Oh oh what have you got to lose
Push the sadness from your heart
VERSE 2
When you walk into the room, Sickness starts to vanish
Every hopeless situation ceases to exist
And when you walk into the room, The dead begin to rise
'Cause there is resurrection life in all You do
Behold, God the Lord passed by! And a mighty wind rent the mountains around, brake in pieces the rocks, brake them before the Lord. But yet the Lord was not in the tempest. Behold, God the Lord passed by! And the sea was upheaved, and the earth was shaken. But yet the Lord was not in the earthquake. And after the earthquake there came a fire. But yet the Lord was not in the fire. And after the fire there came a still small voice. And in that still voice onward came the Lord.
Bilbo's specific walking-song was included as the second song of the song cycle by Donald Swann, where it was referred to as Upon the Hearth the Fire is Red.[2] It is also included as part of the CD that accompanied the latest edition.
