Day is breaking, night is ended
Author: Kaspar Johannes Boye, 1791-1853; J. C. Aaberg Hymnal: Hymns and Hymnwriters of Denmark #105 (1945) Meter: 8.8.7.8.8.7 Lyrics:
Day is breaking, night is ended,
And the day of rest ascended
Upon church and countryside.
Like the day in brightness growing,
Grace from God is richer flowing;
Heaven’s portals open wide.
O what joy this day is bringing,
When the chiming bells are ringing,
Calling man to prayer and praise!
All the angel host rejoices
And with gladsome, mellow voices
Thanks the Lord for light and grace.
Sin and death with fear and sorrow
And the burden of tomorrow
Shall not weigh my heart with care.
Unto all in tribulation
Doth the Lord of our salvation
On this day His peace declare.
Be it hushed in solemn stillness,
Must I weep in grief or illness,
Or confess my guilt and shame,
It is blessed to be weeping
When the hungry heart is reaping
Grace and peace in Jesus’ name.
O Thou Fount of grace unbounded,
Who our wisdom hath confounded,
164
Whom but faith can comprehend!
In Thy love my soul reposes;
Heaven’s portal never closes
Till before Thy throne we stand.

At the Cross, Her Station Keeping
Hymnal: Lutheran Book of Worship #110 (1978) Meter: 8.8.7.8.8.7 Lyrics: 1 At the cross, her station keeping,
Stood the mournful mother weeping,
Close to Jesus to the last.
Through her heart, his sorrow sharing,
All his bitter anguish bearing,
Now at length the sword had passed.
2 Oh, how sad and sore distressed
Was that mother highly blessed
Of the sole-begotten one!
Oh, the depth of her affliction
As she saw the crucifixion
Of her dying, glorious Son!
3 Who, on Christ's dear mother gazing,
Pierced by anguish so amazing,
Born of woman, would not weep?
Who, on Christ's dear mother thinking,
Such a cup of sorrow drinking,
Would not share her sorrows deep?
4 For his people's sins chastised,
She beheld her Son despised,
Scourged, and crowned with thorns entwined;
Saw him then from judgment taken,
And in death by all forsaken,
Till his spirit he resigned.
5 Jesus, may her deep devotion
Stir in me the same emotion,
Source of love, redeemer true.
Let me thus, fresh ardor gaining
And a purer love attaining,
Consecrate my life to you. Topics: Holy Week; Holy Week Languages: English Tune Title: STABAT MATER

Christians, come, in sweetest measures
Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymn-book #121 (1918) Meter: 8.8.7.8.8.7 Lyrics: 1 Christians, come, in sweetest measures,
Sing of those who spread the treasures
In the holy Gospel shrined;
Blessed tidings of salvation,
Peace on earth their proclamation,
Love from God to lost mankind.
2 See the rivers four that gladden
With their streams the better Eden,
Planted by our Savior dear:
Christ the fountain, these the waters;
Drink, O Zion’s sons and daughters,
Drink, and find salvation here.
3 Here our souls, by Jesus sated,
More and more shall be translated
Earth’s temptations far above:
Freed from sin’s abhorred dominion,
Soaring on angelic pinion,
They shall reach the source of love.
4 Then shall thanks and praise ascending,
For Thy mercies without ending,
Rise to Thee, O Savior blest:
With Thy gracious aid defend us;
Let Thy guiding light attend us;
Bring us to Thy place of rest. Topics: God's Word Languages: English

I Sing the Birth
Author: B. Jonson, c. 1572-1637 Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymnary #130 (1996) Meter: 8.8.7.8.8.7 First Line: I sing the birth was born tonight Lyrics: 1 I sing the birth was born tonight,
The Author both of life and light:
The angels so did sound it;
And like the ravished shepherds said,
Who saw the light and were afraid,
Yet searched, and true they found it.
2 The Son of God, th'eternal King,
That did us all salvation bring,
And freed the world from danger,
He whom the whole world could not take,
The Lord which heav'n and earth did make,
Was now laid in a manger.
3 The Father's wisdom willed it so,
The Son's obedience knew no "No,"
Both wills were in one stature;
And, as that wisdom hath decreed,
The Word was now made flesh indeed,
And took on Him our nature.
4 What comfort by Him do we win,
Who made Himself the price of sin,
To make us heirs of glory!
To see this Babe, all innocence,
A martyr born in our defense--
Can man forget this story? Topics: Nativity of our Lord Languages: English

Holy Ghost, Who Intercedist

With the Lord for all we need,
Deign to hold with us communion
That with Thee in blessed union
In our life we may succeed.

Wiser e’en than Solomon.

To our sighs when shadows darken,
Guard us from the beasts of prey.
Rouse the careless, help the weary,
Bow the prideful, cheer the dreary,
Be our guest each passing day.

Ev'ry burden which us frightens,
Succor us from sin and shame.
Stir our hearts, inspire our vision,
Add Thy strength to our petition,
As we pray in Jesus’ name. Topics: Pentecost Languages: English Tune Title: [Holy Ghost, who intercedist]

From strength to strength renew you. Topics: The Church The People of God; The Life In Christ Conflict and Victory Languages: English Tune Title: ASCENDIT DEUS
