Just my personal preference, but I would not use reed tone throughout the entire hymn; it is just too tiring. Maybe on the third verse or even just the last half of the third verse, would I add a trumpet stop. If you are only adding reeds in the pedal, that would be great on the final verse, but even then I wouldn't do it for the entire hymn.
Looking at my markings in my hymnal, what I have used in the past is: verse 1) principal chorus up to 2'; verse 2) add to the principal chorus to make it fuller--more 8's and 4's; verse 3) add a mixture. That is a somewhat understated registration, but I'm not sure the organ needs to compete with the congregation. Another possibility would be to have a principal chorus to mixture on verse 1; take off the mixture and add 8's and 4's for verse 2; bring the mixture back on for verse 3 with a trumpet added at "then conquer we must...".

Oh, and would you talk more about the adjusting of the volume at the amps, etc.? There was another thread here about such options. I'm very curious.
