Oh, Blest the House

Where Jesus Christ is All-in-All!
For if he were not dwelling there,
How dark and poor and void it were!
2 Oh, blest that house where faith is found,
And all in charity abound
To trust their God and serve him still
And do in all his holy will!
3 Oh, blest that house; it prospers well!
In peace and joy the parents dwell,
And in their children's lives is shown
How richly God can bless his own.
4 Then here will I and mine today
A solemn cov'nant make and say:
Though all the world forsake his Word,
My house and I will serve the Lord. Topics: Commitment; Community in Christ; Family Languages: English Tune Title: WO GOTT ZUM HAUS
Oh, Blest the House
The Star Proclaims the King Is Here
Author: Coelius Sedulius, 5th cent.; John Mason Neale, 1818-66 Hymnal: Lutheran Service Book #399 (2006) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Hymnal Title: Lutheran Service Book Lyrics: 1 The star proclaims the King is here;
But, Herod, why this senseless fear?
For He who offers heav'nly birth
Seeks not the kingdoms of this earth.
2 The eastern sages saw from far
And followed on His guiding star;
And, led by light, to light they trod
And by their gifts confessed their God.
3 Within the Jordan's sacred flood
The heav'nly Lamb in meekness stood
That He, of whom no sin was known,
Might cleanse His people from their own.
4 And oh, what miracle divine,
When water reddened into wine!
He spoke the word, and forth it flowed
In streams that nature ne'er bestowed.
5 For this Thy glad epiphany
All glory, Jesus, be to Thee,
Whom with the Father we adore,
And Holy Spirit evermore. Scripture: Matthew 2:1-12 Languages: English Tune Title: WO GOTT ZUM HAUS

Where Jesus Christ is all in all!
A home that is not wholly His--
How sad and poor and dark it is!
2 Oh, blest that house where faith is found
And all in hope and love abound;
They trust their God and serve Him still
And do in all His holy will!
3 Oh, blest the parents who give heed
Unto their children's foremost need
And weary not of care or cost.
May none to them and heav'n be lost!
4 Oh, blest that house; it prospers well.
In peace and joy the parents dwell,
And in their children's lives is shown
How richly God can bless His own.
5 Then here will I and mine today
A solemn promise make and say:
Though all the world forsake His Word,
I and my house will serve the Lord!

We Have a Sure Prophetic Word
Author: Emanuel Cronenwett, 1841-1931 Hymnal: Lutheran Worship #340 (1982) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Hymnal Title: Lutheran Worship Lyrics: 1 We have a sure prophetic Word
By inspiration of the Lord;
And though assailed on ev'ry hand,
Jehovah's Word shall ever stand.
2 By pow'rs of empire banned and burned,
By pagan pride rejected, spurned,
The Word still stands, the Christian's trust,
While haughty empires lie in dust.
3 See, what the Word in times of old
Of future days and deeds foretold
Is all fulfilled while ages roll,
As traced on the prophetic scroll.
4 Abiding, steadfast, firm, and sure
The teachings of the Word endure.
Blest he who trusts this steadfast Word;
His anchor holds in Christ, the Lord. Topics: The Word of God Languages: English Tune Title: WO GOTT SUM HAUS

Is God withdrawing? all the Cost
Hymnal: Psalmodia Germanica #60 (1732) Hymnal Title: Psalmodia Germanica Lyrics: I. Is God withdrawing? all the Cost
And Pains that built the House are lost.
If God the City doth not keep,
The watchful Guards as well may sleep.
II. What if you rise before the Sun,
And work and toil when Day is done,
Careful and sparing eat your Bread,
To shun that Poverty you dread.
III. 'Tis all in vain, till God has blest:
He can make Rich, yet give us Rest;
Children and Friends are Blessings too,
If God our Sov'reign makes them so.
IV. Happy the Man to whom he sends
Obedient Children, faithful Friends.
How sweet our daily Comforts prove
When they are season'd with his Love!
V. To Father, Son, and Holy Ghost,
The God, whom Heav'n's triumphant Host,
And suff'ring Saints on Earth adore,
Be Glory now and evermore. Topics: Divine Providence Languages: English Tune Title: [Is God withdrawing? all the Cost]
