Abide, O dearest Jesus

Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymn-book #9 (1918) Meter: 7.6 Lyrics: 1 Abide, O dearest Jesus, Among us with Thy grace, That Satan may not harm us, Nor we to sin give place. 2 Abide, O dear Redeemer, Among us with Thy Word, And thus now and hereafter True peace and joy afford. 3 Abide with heavenly brightness Among us, precious Light; Thy truth direct, and keep us From error's gloomy night. 4 Abide with richest blessings Among us, bounteous Lord; Let us in grace and wisdom Grow daily through Thy Word. 5 Abide with Thy protection Among us, Lord our strength; Lest world and Satan fell us, And overcome at length. 6 Abide, O faithful Savior, Among us with Thy love, Grant steadfastness, and help us To reach our home above.

A great and mighty wonder

Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymn-book #16 (1893) Meter: 7.6 Lyrics: 1 A great and mighty wonder Our Christmas Festal brings: On earth, a lowly Infant, Behold the King of kings! 2 The Word is made incarnate, Descending from on high; And cherubim sing anthems To shepherds, from the sky. 3 And we with them triumphant, Repeat the hymn again: "To God on high be glory, And peace on earth to men!" 4 While thus they sing your Monarch, Those bright angelic bands, Rejoice, ye vales and mountains! Ye oceans, clap your hands! 5 Since all He comes to ransom, By all be He adored, The Infant born in Bethlehem, The Saviour and the Lord! 6 And idol forms shall perish, And error shall decay, And Christ shall wield His scepter, Our Lord and God for aye.

I am a great complainer, that bears the name of Christ

Hymnal: The Southern Harmony, and Musical Companion (New ed. thoroughly rev. and much enl.) #18 (1854) Meter: 7.6 Lyrics: 1. I am a great complainer, that bears the name of Christ; Come, all ye Zion mourners, and listen to my cries: I've many sore temptations, and sorrows to my soul; I feel my faith declining, and my affections cold. 2. O Lord of life and glory, my sins to me reveal, And by thy love and power, my sin sick soul be healed; I thought my warfare over, no trouble I should see; But now I'm like the lonely dove, that mourns on the wavering tree. 3. I wish it was with me now, as in the days of old, When the glorious light of Jesus was flowing in my soul; But now I am distressed, and no relief can find, With a hard deceitful heart, and a wretched wandering mind. 4. It is great pride and passion, beset me on my way, So I am filled with folly, and so neglect to pray; While others run rejoicing, and seem to lose no time, I am so weak I stumble, and so I'm left behind. 5. I read that peace and happiness meet Christians in their way, That bear their cross with meekness, and don't neglect to pray But I, a thousand objects beset me in my way So I am filled with folly, and so neglect to pray.

While yet the morn is breaking

Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymn-book #21 (1918) Meter: 7.6 Lyrics: 1 While yet the morn is breaking, I thank my God once more, Beneath whose care awakening, I find the night is o'er; I thank Him that He calls me To life and health anew; I know whate'er befalls me, His care will still be true. 2 Guardian of Israel, hear me, Watch o'er me through the day, In all I do be near me: For others, too, I pray; To Thee I would commend them, Our Church, our school, our land, Direct them and defend them, When dangers are at hand. 3 O gracious Lord, direct us, Thy doctrine pure defend, From heresies protect us, And for Thy Word contend, That we may praise Thee ever, O God, with one accord, Saying: The Lord our Savior Be evermore adored! 4 O grant us peace and gladness, Give us our daily bread, Shield us from grief and sadness, On us Thy blessings shed; Grant that our whole behavior In truth and righteousness May praise Thee, Lord our Savior, Whose holy name we bless. 5 And gently grant Thy blessing, That we may do Thy will, No more Thy ways transgressing, Our proper task fulfill; With Peter's full affiance Let down our nets again; If Thou art our Reliance, Our toil will not be vain. 6 With craftiness unceasing Strives Satan to restrain What in Thy sight is pleasing And for Thy Church is gain; Yet vain is his endeavor, For Thou, O Christ our Lord, Dost rule all things forever By Thine almighty Word. 7 Thou art the Vine, -- O nourish The branches graft in Thee, And let them grow and flourish A fair and fruitful tree; Thy Spirit pour within us, And let His gifts of grace To such good actions win us, That best may show Thy praise.

My inmost heart now raises

Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymn-book #22 (1918) Meter: 7.6 Lyrics: 1 My inmost heart now raises, In this fair morning hour, A song of thankful praises To Thine almighty power. O God, upon Thy throne! To honor and adore Thee, I bring my praise before Thee, Through Christ, Thine only Son. 2 For Thou from me hast warded All perils of the night; From every harm hast guarded My soul till morning's light: Humbly to Thee I cry, O Savior, have compassion, And pardon my transgression; Have mercy, Lord most high! 3 And shield me from all evil, O gracious God, this day, From sin, and from the Devil, From shame and from dismay, From fire's consuming breath, From water's devastation, From need and consternation, From evil, sudden death. 4 My life, my soul--defend them! My wife, child, goods, and home,-- to Thy hand I commend them, From Thee these blessings come; Thy bounteous hand bestows My household and my treasures, My parents, friends, and pleasures; My cup with good o'erflows. 5 Let not Thine angel leave me, While here on earth I stay, Lest Satan's arts deceive me, And lead my soul astray! Then keep Thine angel near At night and each new morrow, Lest soul and body sorrow, And faltering cost me dear. 6 God shall do my advising, Whose might with wisdom blends; May He bless rest and rising, My efforts, means, and ends! To God, forever blessed, Will I with mine confide me, And suffer Him to guide me As seemeth to Him best. 7 Amen! I say, not fearing That God rejects my prayer; I doubt not He is hearing And granting me His care. So I put forth my hands, And look not long behind me, But ply the task assigned me By God, as He commands. Topics: Morning Languages: English
