All glory be to God on high

To us no harm shall now come nigh, The feud at last is ended?

O death, where is thy cruel sting?

Author: Georg Weissel; Justus Gesenius Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran hymnal #80 (1908) Lyrics: 1 O death! where is thy cruel sting? O grave! where is thy power? What harm to us can Satan bring Though threatening to devour? Thanks be to God! of glorious might, Who conquered for us in this fight Through Jesus Christ our Captain. 2 How fiercely the arch-serpent raged, When Christ his might contested? Yet Christ, though all hell's hosts engaged, Their prowess from them wrested. And though the serpent pricked His heel, Yet was he made its weight to feel; His hear is bruised forever. 3 And now Christ comes to life again, And breaks death's chain asunder; He binds the foe, takes hell amain, And wrests from him his plunder. No power an stay the Victor's march, He enters the triumphal arch:-- All must succumb before Him. 4 A death to death, to hell a pest, Christ is become by dying; Still Satan rages without rest With murd'rous will and lying. And since he cannot come with might, He turns accuser, day and night; But judged, he stands rejected. 5 The Lord's right hand, His holy arm, The victory retaineth; No might of foes can Him disarm, The glory His remaineth. Now sin and Satan, death and hell, Are ousted from their citadel; Their wrath is fierce, yet pow'rless. 6 The Christ of God, God's Son was dead; But lo, He ever liveth! As He arose, our living Head, So life to us He giveth. Now, who believes on Jesus' Word From death and grave shall be restored, And live, e'en though he dieth. 7 He who with Christ arises here By faith and daily sorrow, The second death need never fear: Heaven's his eternal morrow. Death's swallowed up in victory And life and immortality Are brought to light by Jesus. 8 Forgiveness, peace, joy, righteousness, On earth and there in heaven-- These are the Easter-spoils that bless The hearts to Jesus given. So we, His heirs, wait patiently Until our bodies fashioned by Like His own glorious body. 9 The ancient dragon, with his brood, Is hurled to degradation; They lay a mock, with scorn subdued, When Christ rose with salvation. The gain of our triumphant Head Is ours, His members; hence we dread No more the serpent's power. 10 O Death! where is thy cruel sting? O grave! where is thy power? What harm to us can Satan bring Though threatening to devour? Thanks be to God! of glorious might, Who conquered for us in this fight Through Jesus Christ our Captain.

Had God not come,may Israel say

Author: Dr. Martin Luther; Richard Massie Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran hymnal #145 (1908) Lyrics: 1 Had God not come, may Israel say, Had God not come to aid us, Our enemies on that sad day Would surely have dismayed us; A remnant now, and handful small, Held in contempt and scorn by all, Who cruelly oppress us. 2 Their furious wrath, did God permit, Would quickly have consumed us, And in the deep and yawning pit With life and limb entombed us; Like men o'er whom dark waters roll, The streams had gone e'en o'er our soul, And mightily o'erwhelmed us. 3 Thanks be to God, who from the pit Snatched us, when it was gaping: Our souls, like birds that break the net, To the blue sky escaping; The snare is broken—we are free! The Lord our Helper praised be, The God of earth and heaven. Topics: The Church Year Reformation Languages: English Tune Title: DECIUS (Allein Gott in der Hoch sei Ehr)

The mouth of fools doth God confess

Author: Dr. Martin Luther; Richard Massie Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran hymnal #146 (1908) Lyrics: 1 The mouth of fools doth God confess, But while their lips draw nigh Him Their heart is full of wickedness, And all their deeds deny Him. Corrupt are they, and ev'ry one Abominable deeds hath done; There is not one well-doer. 2 The Lord looked from His high tower On all mankind below Him To see if any owned His power, Who truly sought to know Him; Who all their understanding bent To search His holy Word, intent To do His will in earnest. 3 But none there was who walked with God, For all aside had slidden, Delusive paths of folly trod, And followed lusts forbidden; Not one there was who practiced good, Though many deemed, in haughty mood, Their deeds to God were pleasing. 4 How long, by folly blindly led, Will ye oppress the needy And eat my people up like bread? So fierce are ye and greedy! In God they put no trust at all, Nor will on Him in trouble call, But be their own providers. 5 Therefore their heart is never still, A falling leaf dismays them, God is with him who doth His will, Who trusts Him and obeys Him; But ye the poor man's hope despise, And mock him when he humbly cries That God is his sure comfort. 6 Who shall to Israel’s outcast race From Zion bring salvation? God will Himself at length show grace, And loose the captive nation; That will He do by Christ their King; Let Jacob then be glad and sing And Israel be joyful.
