Lo, God to heaven ascendeth!
Author: G.W. Sacer Hymnal: The Lutheran Hymnary #367 (1913) Meter: 7.6.7.6.6.7.7.6 Topics: The Church Year Ascension; The Church Year Ascension Lyrics: 1 Lo, God to heaven ascendeth!
Throughout its regions vast,
With shouts triumphant blendeth
The trumpet's thrilling blast:
Sing praise to Christ, the Lord,
Sing praise with exultation!
King of each heathen nation!
The God of hosts adored.
2 With joy is heaven resounding,
Christ's glad return to see;
Behold the saints surrounding
The Lord who set them free:
Bright myriads thronging come;
The cherub-band rejoices,
And loud seraphic voices
Welcome Messiah home.
3 No more the way is hidden,
Since Christ, our Head, arose;
No more to man forbidden,
The road to heaven that goes;
Our Lord is gone before,
Yet here He will not leave us,
But soon in heaven receive us:
He opens wide the door.
4 Christ is our place preparing.
To heaven we, too, shall rise,
And, joys angelic sharing,
Be where our treasure lies:
There may each heart be found,
Where Jesus Christ has entered!
There let our hopes be centered,
Our course still heavenward bound!
5 May we, His servants, thither
In heart and mind ascend,
And let us sing together,--
We seek Thee, Christ, our friend,
Thee, God's anointed Son,
Our life, and way to heaven,
To whom all power is given,
Our joy, and hope, and crown. Tune Title: [Lo, God to heaven ascendeth]
Lo, God to heaven ascendeth!
Thou art gone up on high
Author: Emma L. Toke Hymnal: The Lutheran Hymnary #368 (1913) Topics: The Church Year Sixth Sunday after Easter; The Church Year Ascension Lyrics: 1 Thou art gone up on high
To mansions in the skies;
And round Thy throne unceasingly
The songs of praise arise:
But we are lingering here,
With sin and care oppressed;
Lord, send Thy promised Comforter,
And lead us to Thy rest.
2 Thou art gone up on high;
But Thou didst first come down,
Through earth's most bitter misery,
To pass unto Thy crown;
And girt with griefs and fears
Our onward course must be;
But only let that path of tears
Lead us at last to Thee.
3 Thou art gone up on high;
But Thou shalt come again,
With all the bright ones of the sky
Attendant in Thy train.
O by Thy saving power,
So make us live and die,
That we may stand in that dread hour
At Thy right hand on high. Tune Title: [Thou art gone up on high]
Thou art gone up on high
Jesus, and shall it ever be
Author: J. Grigg Hymnal: The Lutheran Hymnary #369 (1913) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: The Church Year Sixth Sunday after Easter; The Church Year Sixth Sunday after Easter Lyrics: 1 Jesus, and shall it ever be,
A mortal man ashamed of Thee?
Ashamed of Thee, whom angels praise,
Whose glories shine through endless days?
2 Ashamed of Jesus! sooner far
Let evening blush to own a star:
He sheds the beams of light divine
O'er this benighted soul of mine.
3 Ashamed of Jesus! just as soon
Let midnight be ashamed of noon;
'Tis midnight with my soul, till He,
Bright morning star, bid darkness flee.
4 Ashamed of Jesus, that dear Friend
On whom my hopes of heaven depend!
No, when I blush, be this my shame,
That I no more revere His name.
5 Ashamed of Jesus! yes, I may
When I've no guilt to wash away,
No tear to wipe, no good to crave,
No fears to quell, no soul to save.
6 Till then, nor is my boasting vain,
Till then I boast a Savior slain;
And O may this my glory be,
That Christ is not ashamed of me.
Tune Title: [Jesus, and it shall ever be]
Jesus, and shall it ever be
Just as I am, without one plea
Author: Charlotte Elliott, 1789 - 1871 Hymnal: Service Book and Hymnal of the Lutheran Church in America #370a (1958) Topics: The Church Year Lent; The Church Year Good Friday Lyrics: 1 Just as I am, without one plea,
But that thy Blood was shed for me,
And that thou bidd'st me come to thee,
O Lamb of God, I come, I come.
2 Just as I am, and waiting not
To rid my soul of one dark blot,
To thee, whose Blood can cleanse each spot,
O Lamb of God, I come, I come.
3 Just as I am, though tossed about
With many a conflict, many a doubt,
Fightings and fears within, without,
O Lamb of God, I come, I come.
4 Just as I am, poor, wretched, blind;
Sight, riches, healing of the mind,
Yea, all I need, in thee to find,
O Lamb of God, I come.
5 Just as I am, thou wilt receive,
Wilt welcome, pardon, cleanse, relieve;
Because thy promise I believe,
O Lamb of God, I come.
6 Just as I am; thy love unknown
Has broken every barrier down;
Now to be thine, yea, thine alone,
O Lamb of God, I come.

Just as I am, without one plea
Whate'er my God ordains is right
Author: S. Rodigast Hymnal: The Lutheran Hymnary #370 (1913) Meter: 8.7.8.7.4.4.8.8 Topics: The Church Year Sixth Sunday after Easter; The Church Year Sixth Sunday after Easter Lyrics: 1 Whate’er my God ordains is right:
Holy His will abideth;
I will be still whate’er He doth;
And follow where He guideth.
He is my God;
Though dark my road,
He holds me that I shall not fall,
Wherefore to Him I leave it all.
2 Whate’er my God ordains is right:
He never will deceive me;
He leads me by the proper path:
I know He will not leave me,
And take, content,
What He hath sent;
His hand can turn my griefs away,
And patiently I wait His day.
3 Whate’er my God ordains is right:
Though now this cup in drinking
May bitter seem to my faint heart,
I take it, all unshrinking.
Tears pass away
With dawn of day;
Sweet comfort yet shall fill my heart,
And pain and sorrow shall depart.
4 Whate’er my God ordains is right:
Here shall my stand be taken;
Though sorrow, need, or death be mine,
Yet I am not forsaken;
My Father’s care
Is round me there;
He holds me that I shall not fall,
And so to Him I leave it all. Tune Title: [Whate'er my God ordains is right]

Just as I am, without one plea
In the hour of trial
Author: J. Montgomery Hymnal: The Lutheran Hymnary #371 (1913) Topics: The Church Year Sixth Sunday after Easter; The Church Year Sixth Sunday after Easter Lyrics: 1 In the hour of trial,
Jesus, plead for me,
Lest by base denial
I depart from Thee;
When Thou seest me waver,
With a look recall,
Nor for fear or favor
Suffer me to fall.
2 With forbidden pleasures
Would this vain world charm;
Or its sordid treasures
Spread to work me harm;
Bring to my remembrance
Sad Gethsemane,
Or, in darker semblance,
Cross-crowned Calvary.
3 Should Thy mercy send me
Sorrow, toil, and woe;
Or should pain attend me
On my path below;
Grant that I may never
Fail Thy hand to see;
Grant that I may ever
Cast my care on Thee.
4 When my last hour cometh,
Fraught with strife and pain,
When my dust returneth
To the dust again;
On Thy truth relying,
Through that mortal strife,
Jesus, take me, dying,
To eternal life.
Tune Title: [In the our of trial]
In the hour of trial
O Jesus, I have promised
Author: J. E. Bode Hymnal: The Lutheran Hymnary #372 (1913) Topics: The Church Year Sixth Sunday after Easter; The Church Year Sixth Sunday after Easter Lyrics: 1 O Jesus, I have promised
To serve Thee to the end;
Be Thou forever near me,
My Master and my Friend!
I shall not fear the battle
If Thou art by my side,
Nor wander from the pathway
If Thou wilt be my guide.
2 O let me feel Thee near me--
The world is ever near;
I see the sights that dazzle,
The tempting sounds I hear.
My foes are ever near me,
Around me and within;
But Jesus, draw Thou nearer,
And shield my soul from sin.
3 O let me hear Thee speaking
In accents clear and still,
Above the storms of passion,
The murmurs of self-will.
O speak to reassure me,
To hasten or control;
O speak, and make me listen,
Thou Guardian of my soul!
4 O Jesus, Thou hast promised
To all who follow Thee
That where Thou art in glory
There shall Thy servant be;
And, Jesus, I have promised
To serve Thee to the end;
O give me grace to follow,
My Master and my Friend!
5 O let me see Thy footmarks,
And in them plant mine own;
My hope to follow duly
Is in Thy strength alone.
O guide me, call me, draw me,
Uphold me to the end;
And then in heaven receive me,
My Savior and my Friend!
Tune Title: [O Jesus, I have promised]
O Jesus, I have promised
O Christ, our hope, our hearts' desire
Author: Anon. Hymnal: The Lutheran Hymnary #373 (1913) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: The Church Year Sixth Sunday after Easter; The Church Year Sixth Sunday after Easter Lyrics: 1 O Christ, our hope, our hearts' desire,
Redemption's only spring!
Creator of the world art Thou,
Its Savior and its King,
Its Savior and its King.
2 How vast the mercy and the love
Which laid our sins on Thee,
And led Thee to a cruel death,
To set Thy people free,
To set Thy people free!
3 But now the bands of death are burst,
The ransom has been paid;
And Thou art on Thy Father's throne,
In glorious robes arrayed,
In glorious robes arrayed.
4 O may Thy mighty love prevail
Our sinful souls to spare!
O may we come before Thy throne
And find acceptance there,
And find acceptance there!
5 O Christ, be Thou our present joy,
Our future great reward;
Our only glory may it be
To glory in the Lord,
To glory in the Lord!
Tune Title: [O Christ, our hope, our hearts' desire]
O Christ, our hope, our hearts' desire
There is a fountain filled with blood
Author: William Cowper, 1731 - 1800 Hymnal: Service Book and Hymnal of the Lutheran Church in America #373 (1958) Topics: The Church Year Holy Week; The Church Year Good Friday Lyrics: 1 There is a fountain filled with blood
Drawn from Immanuel's veins;
And sinners, plunged beneath that flood,
Lose all their guilty stains.
2 The dying thief rejoiced to see
That fountain in his day;
And there have I, as vile as he,
Washed all my sins away.
3 Dear dying Lamb, thy precious Blood
Shall never lose its power
Till all the ransomed Church of God
Be saved, to sin no more.
4 E'er since, by faith, I saw the stream
Thy flowing wounds supply,
Redeeming love has been my theme,
And shall be till I die.
5 Then in a nobler, sweeter song,
I'll sing thy power to save,
When this poor lisping, stammering tongue
Lies silent in the grave. Languages: English Tune Title: EVAN
