O living Bread from heaven
Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymn-book #422 (1893) Meter: 7.6 Lyrics: 1 O LIVING Bread from heaven,
How hast Thou fed Thy guest!
The gifts Thou now hast given
Have filled my heart with rest.
O wondrous Food of blessing!
O Cup that heals our woes!
My heart, this gift possessing,
In thankful song o'erflows.
2 My Lord, Thou here hast led me
Within Thy holiest place,
And there Thyself hast fed me
With treasures of Thy grace:
For Thou hast freely given
What earth could never buy,
The Bread of life from heaven,
That now I shall not die!
3 Thou givest all I wanted
The Food can death destroy;
And Thou hast freely granted
The Cup of endless joy,
Ah, Lord I do not merit
The favor Thou hast shown,
And all my soul and spirit
Bow down before Thy Throne!
4 Lord, grant me that, thus strengthened
With heavenly food, while here
My course on earth is lengthened,
I serve with holy fear:
And when Thou call'st my spirit
To leave this world below,
I enter, through Thy merit,
Where joys unmingled flow. Topics: Catechism Lord's Supper Languages: English
O living Bread from heaven
If God Himself be for me
Author: Richard Massie; Paul Gerhardt Hymnal: Church Book #424 (1890) Meter: 7.6 Lyrics: 1 If God Himself be for me,
I may a host defy;
For when I pray, before me
My foes confounded fly.
If Christ, the Head, befriend me,
If God be my support,
The mischief they intend me
Shall quickly come to naught.
2 I build on this foundation,
That Jesus and His Blood
Alone are my salvation,
My true, eternal good:
Without Him, all that pleases
Is valueless on earth:
The gifts I ow to Jesus
Alone my love are worth.
3 His Holy Spirit dwelleth
Within my willing heart,
Tames it when it rebelleth,
And soothes the keenest smart.
He crown His work with blessing,
And helpeth me to cry
"My Father!" without ceasing
To Him who reigns on high.
4 To mine His Spirit speaketh
Sweet words of soothing power,
How God to him that seeketh
For rest, hath rest in store.
How God Himself prepareth
My heritage and lot,
And though my body weareth,
My heaven shall fail me not. Topics: The Christian Life Trust; Easter Season, Fifth Sunday; Easter Season, Sixth Sunday; Whit-Sunday; Twenty First Sunday after Trinity Languages: English Tune Title: OLD 130TH PSALM
If God Himself be for me
In holy contemplation
Author: William Cowper Hymnal: Church Book #430 (1890) Meter: 7.6 Lyrics: 1 In holy contemplation
We sweetly now pursue
The theme of God's salvation,
And find it ever new.
Set free from present sorrow,
We cheerfully can say,
Let the unknown to-morrow
Bring with it what it may.
2 It can bring with it nothing,
But He will bear us through;
Who gives the lilies clothing
Will clothe His people too.
Beneath the spreading heavens
No creature but is fed;
And He who feeds the ravens
Will give His children bread.
3 Though vine nor fig tree neither
Their wonted fruit should bear;
Though all the field should wither,
Nor flocks nor herds be there:
Yet God the same abiding,
His praise shall tune my voice;
For while in Him confiding,
I cannot but rejoice. Topics: The Christian Life Trust in God and Providence Languages: English Tune Title: BENTLEY
In holy contemplation
The voice that breathed o'er Eden
Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymn-book #438 (1893) Meter: 7.6 Lyrics: 1 THE voice that breathed o’er Eden,
That earliest wedding day,
The primal wedding blessing,--
It hath not passed away.
2 Still in the pure espousal
Of Christian man and maid,
The Holy Thee are with us,
The threefold grace is said.
3 Be present, awful Father,
To give away this bride,
As Eve Thou gav'st to Adam
Out of His own pierced side.
4 Be present, Son of Mary,
To join their loving hands,
As Thou didst bind two natures
In Thine eternal bands.
5 Be present, Holiest Spirit,
To bless them as they kneel,
As Thou for Christ the Bridegroom
The heavenly spouse dost seal.
6 O spread Thy pure wings o’er them,
Let no ill power find place,
When onward to Thine altar
Their hallowed path they trace,
7 To cast their crowns before Thee
In perfect sacrifice,
Till to the home of gladness
With Christ’s own Bride they rise.

Hail to the Lord's anointed
Come, my soul and let us try
Author: Joseph Hart Hymnal: The Sacred Harp #448b (1991) Meter: 7.6 Languages: English Tune Title: THE GRIEVED SOUL
Come, my soul and let us try
A pilgrim and a stranger
Author: Paul Gerhardt; Jane Borthwick Hymnal: Church Book #453 (1890) Meter: 7.6 Lyrics: 1 A pilgrim and a stranger,
I journey here below:
Far distant is my country,
The home to which I go.
Here I must toil and travail,
Oft weary and opprest,
But there my God shall lead me
To everlasting rest.
2 There still my thoughts are dwelling,
'Tis there I long to be;
Come, Lord, and call thy servant
To blessedness with Thee!
Come, bid my toils be ended,
Let all my wanderings cease;
Call from the wayside lodging
To the sweet home of peace!
3 There I shall dwell for ever,
No more a stranger guest,
With all thy blood-bought children.
In everlasting rest:
The pilgrim toils forgotten,
The pilgrim conflicts o'er,
All earthly griefs behind us,
Eternal joys before! Topics: The Christian Life The Heavenly Spirit; Easter Season, Fourth Sunday; Twenty Fourth Sunday after Trinity; Twenty Seventh Sunday after Trinity Languages: English Tune Title: SALEM
A pilgrim and a stranger
Ah, this heart is void and chill
Author: Jane Borthwick; Charles John Spitta Hymnal: Church Book #455 (1890) Meter: 7.6 Lyrics: 1 Ah, this heart is void and chill,
'Mid earth's noisy thronging;
For the Father's mansions still
Earnestly is longing.
2 O to be at home, and gain
All for which we're sighing;
From all earthly want and pain
To be swiftly flying!
3 With this load of sin and care
Then no longer bending,
But with waiting angels there
On our Lord attending!
4 Ah, how blessed, blessed they
Who have rightly striven,
And rejoin eternally
With their Lord in heaven! Topics: The Christian Life The Heavenly Spirit; Easter Season, Fourth Sunday; Twenty Fourth Sunday after Trinity; Twenty Seventh Sunday after Trinity Languages: English Tune Title: BORTHWICK
