Author: Johann Heermann Appears in 16 hymnals Scripture: Luke 19 First Line: Du weinest für Jerusalem Lyrics: 1 Du weinest für Jerusalem, Herr Jesu! heiße Zähren, bezeugst, es sei Dir angenehm, wann Sünder sich bekehren.

Dies tröstet mich in aller Frist, Herr Jesu Christ, in Noth Du auch gewesen bist. 4 Du zählst die Thränen groß und klein; ich weiß sie sind gezählet, und ob sie nicht zu zählen sein, dennoch Dir keine fehlet: So oft vor Dir sie regen sich, so oft sie auch bewegen Dich, daß Du Dich mein erbarmen mußt. Dir ist bewußt mein Creuz, drum hilfst Du mir mit Lust. 5 Wer jetzo säet Thränen aus, hält in Geduld Gott stille, den nimmst Du zu Dir in Dein Haus, da Freud' und Lust die Fülle, ja solche Freude, die kein Mann mit seiner Zung' aussprechen kann; da wird mein jetzig Creuz und Leid sein lauter Freud, und wahr'n in alle Ewigkeit. 6 Für diese Thränen dank ich dir, daß du die Freudenkrone, Herr Christ, dadurch erworben mir bei dir im Himmelsthrone. Wenn du mich holen wirst hinauf zu deiner Auserwählten Hauf: dann will ich recht lobsingen dir, o höchste Zier, für deine Thränen für und für.

Rejoice, ye long dejected, Here comes the Morning Star! The Lord will give you joy; Tho' troubles now distress you, With comfort He will bless you, E’en death He will destroy. 4 Arise, ye poor and needy!

For, lo, He means it well; Then willing bear the crosses That He Himself imposes, Nor let your courage fail. 6 O rich the gifts Thou bringest, Thyself made poor and weak! O Love beyond expression, That thus can sinners seek! For this, O Lord, will we Our joyous tribute bring Thee And glad hosannas sing Thee, And ever grateful be. Amen.
