Lord of Our Life
Author: Matthäus Apelles von Löwenstern, 1594-1648; Philip Pusey, 1799-1855 Meter: 11.11.11.5 Appears in 220 hymnals First Line: Lord of our life and God of our salvation Lyrics: 1 Lord of our life and God of our salvation,
Star of our night and Hope of ev'ry nation:
Hear and receive Your Church's supplication,
Lord God Almighty.
2 See round Your ark the hungry billows curling;
See how Your foes their banners are unfurling
And with great spite their fiery darts are hurling,
O Lord, preserve us.
3 Lord, be our light when worldly darkness veils us;
Lord, be our shield when earthly armor fails us;
And in the day when hell itself assails us,
Grant us Your peace, Lord:
4 Peace in our hearts, where sinful thoughts are raging,
Peace in Your Church, our troubled souls assuaging,
Peace when the world its endless war is waging,
Peace in Your heaven.

Lord of Our Life
Ah, holy Jesus, how hast thou offended
Author: Johann Heermann Meter: 11.11.11.5 Appears in 135 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Ah, holy Jesus, how hast thou offended,
That man to judge thee have in hate pretended?
By foes derided, by thine own rejected,
O most afflicted.
2 Who was the guilty? who brought this upon thee?
Alas, my treason, Jesus, hath undone thee.
'Twas I, Lord Jesus, I it was denied thee:
I crucified thee.
3 Lo, the good Shepherd for the sheep is offered:
The slave hath sinned, and the Son hath suffered.
For man's atonement, while we nothing heedeth,
God intercedeth.
4 For me, kind Jesus, was thine incarnation,
Thy mortal sorrow, and thy life's oblation:
Thy death of anguish and thy bitter passion,
For my salvation.
5 Therefore, kind Jesus, since I cannot pay thee,
I do adore thee, and will ever pray thee
Think on thy pity and thy love unswerving,
Not my deserving.
Amen. Topics: Christ, The Lord Jesus; Christ Shepherd; Christ Substitute; Christ Suffering of; Confession of Sin; Imputation, of Sin; Incarnation; Sickness Scripture: Isaiah 53:4 Used With Tune: ISTE CONFESSOR Text Sources: Yattendon Hymnal, 1899, Tr.

He Whose Confession God of Old Accepted
Author: Anonymous; Laurence Housman Meter: 11.11.11.5 Appears in 8 hymnals First Line: He, whose confession God of old accepted Lyrics: 1. He, whose confession God of old accepted,
Whom through the ages all now hold in honor,
Gaining his guerdon this day came to enter
Heaven’s high portal.
2. God-fearing, watchful, pure of mind and body,
Holy and humble, thus did all men find him,
While, through his members, to the life immortal
Mortal life called him.
3. Thus to the weary, from the life enshrinèd,
Potent in virtue, flowed humane compassion;
Sick and sore laden, howsoever burdened,
There they found healing.
4. So now in chorus, giving God the glory,
Raise we our anthem gladly to his honor,
That in fair kinship we may all be sharers
Here and hereafter.
5. Honor and glory, power and salvation,
Be in the highest unto Him who reigneth
Changeless in Heaven over earthly changes
Triune, eternal. Used With Tune: ISTE CONFESSOR Text Sources: The English Hymnal (London: Oxford University Press, 1906), number 188
