A few more days of grief and woe
Comfort, ye ministers of grace
Hymnal: A Pocket hymn-book, designed as a constant companion for the pious #CCLXIX (1790) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Consolation Lyrics: 1 Comfort, ye ministers of grace,
Comfort the people of your Lord,
O lift ye up the fallen race,
And cheer them by the gospel-word.
2 Go, into every nation go,
Speak to their trembling hearts, and cry,
Glad tidings unto all we shew;
Jerusalem, thy God is nigh.
3 Hark! in the wilderness a cry,
A voice that loudly calls, Prepare!
Prepare your hearts, for God is nigh,
And means to make his entrance there!
4 The Lord your God shall quickly come;
Sinners, repent, the call obey:
Open your hearts to make him room;
Ye desart-souls, prepare his way.
5 The Lord shall clear his way thro' all;
Whate'er obstructs, obstructs in vain;
The vale shall rise, the mountain fall,
Crooked by strait, and rugged plain.
6 The glory of the Lord display'd
Shall all mankind together view;
And what his mouth and truth hath said,
His own almighty hand shall do. Languages: English
Comfort, ye ministers of grace
High on his everlasting throne
Hymnal: A Pocket hymn-book, designed as a constant companion for the pious #CCLXX (1790) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Consolation Lyrics: 1 High on his everlasting throne
The King of saints his work surveys,
Marks the dear souls he calls his own,
And smiles on the peculiar race.
2 He rests well-pleas'd their toils to see
Beneath his easy yoke they move,
With all their heart and strength agree
In the sweet labour of his love.
3 See where the servants of their God,
A busy multitude, appear,
For Jesus day and night employ'd,
His heritage they toil to clear.
4 The love of Christ their hearts constrains,
And strengthens their unwearied hands,
They spend their sweat, and blood, and pains,
To cultivate Immanuel's lands.
5 Jesus their toil delighted sees,
Their industry vouchsafes to crown,
He kindly gives the wish'd increase,
And sends the promis'd blessing down:
6 The sap of life, the Spirit's powers,
He rains incessant from above,
He all his gracious fulness showers,
To perfect their great work of love.
7 O multiply thy sower’s seed,
And fruit we every hour shall bear,
Throughout the world thy gospel spread,
Thine everlasting truth declare;
8 We all in perfect love renew'd
Shall know the greatness of thy power,
Stand in the temple of our God
As pillars, and go out no more. Languages: English
High on his everlasting throne
What God does, ever well is done!
Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymnal. 9th ed. #a408 (1895) Topics: The Walk of Godliness Cross and Consolation Lyrics: 1 What God does, ever well is done!
His will is just and holy;
As He directs my sands to run,
My spirit shall keep lowly.
He is my God; Though sore the rod,
His care doth e'er enfold me:
Then may He guide and hold me.
2 What God does, ever well is done!
In need He will not quit me.
In rightful path He still leads me on;
To Him then I submit me.
I'll walk His ways, And trust His grace
To lift what doth oppress me:
It rests with Him to bless me.
3 What God does, ever well is done!
He thinks but to befriend me;
As Healer mine, and Wondrous One,
He will not poison send me
Instead of cure. God's heart is pure.
Of doubt will I divest me,
And on His goodness rest me.
4 What God does, ever well is done!
And though the cup selected,
Seem to my mind too bitter drawn,
Yet will I not reject it.
God loveth me! I yet shall see
Sweet comfort for my grieving;
So I keep on believing.
5 What God does, ever well is done!
Of this shall none deprive me;
And though on pathway rough and lone,
Need, death, and mis'ry drive me,
God's arms will bear Me with fond care,
Till all my sorrow ceaseth;
Then do He, as He pleaseth. Languages: English
What God does, ever well is done!
Lord, as Thou wilt, deal Thou with me
Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymnal. 9th ed. #a409 (1895) Topics: The Walk of Godliness Cross and Consolation Lyrics: 1 Lord, as Thou wilt deal Thou with me,
No other wish I cherish;
In life and death I cling to Thee,
O Lord, let me not perish!
Let but Thy grace ne'er from me part,
Else as thou wilt, grant patient heart:
Thy will the best is ever.
2 Grant honor, truth, and self-control,
And love the Word to ponder;
From doctrines false preserve my soul:
And grant both here and yonder
What will conduce to blessed days;
Keep far all wrong and crooked ways
From all my life and doings.
3 When I, according to Thy will,
Shall leave this vale of sadness,
O let Thy grace my bosom fill,
That I may go with gladness;
My spirit I commend to Thee,
O Lord, a blessed end give me
Through Jesus Christ! Yea, Amen. Languages: English
Lord, as Thou wilt, deal Thou with me
Help, Savior! help in fear and need
Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymnal. 9th ed. #a410 (1895) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: The Walk of Godliness Cross and Consolation Lyrics: 1 Help, Savior! help in fear and need,
Have mercy, to my prayers give heed!
I know Thou lov'st me still as Thine,
Though 'gainst me the world and hell combine.
2 I trust in Thee, whom I adore;
If I have Thee, what need I more?
And, O Lord Jesus, Thou art mine:
And blest am I that I am Thine!
3 This sweet assurance bids my heart
Abide Thy time, till clouds shall part;
To Thee I'll trust me wholly then,
And cry: Lord, help me! Yea, Amen. Languages: English
Help, Savior! help in fear and need
Commit thy way, confiding
Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymnal. 9th ed. #a411 (1895) Topics: The Walk of Godliness Cross and Consolation Lyrics: 1 Commit thy way, confiding,
When trials here arise,
To Him whose hand is guiding
The tumults of the skies.
There clouds and tempests, raging,
Have each their path assigned;
Will God, for thee engaging,
No way of safety find?
2 Trust in the Lord! His favor
Will for thy wants provide;
Regard His word!--and ever
Thy work shall safe abide.
When sorrows here o'ertake thee,
And self-inflicted care,
Let not thy God forsake thee!
He listens for thy prayer.
3 Should Satan league his forces,
God's purpose to withstand,
Think not their rage and curses
Can stay His lifted hand!
When He makes known His pleasure,
The counsel of His will,
That, in its utmost measure,
Will He at last fulfill.
4 Hope on them, weak believer,
Hope on, and falter not!
He will thy soul deliver
From deeps of troubled thought.
Thy graces will He nourish,
With hope thy heart employ,
Till faith and hope shall flourish
And yield their fruits of joy.
5 Well blest, His grace receiving,
God owns thee for a son!
With joy, and with thanksgiving,
Behold the victor's crown!
Thy hand the palm-branch raises,--
God gives it thee to bear;--
Then sing aloud His praises,
Who has removed thy care.
6 The sorrows, Lord, that try us,
O bring them to an end!
With needed strength supply us!
Thy love to us commend!
That we, till death pursuing
Thy best, Thy chosen way,
May then, our life renewing,
Praise Thee in endless day. Languages: English
Commit thy way, confiding
Seems it in my anguish lone
Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymnal. 9th ed. #a412 (1895) Topics: The Walk of Godliness Cross and Consolation Lyrics: 1 Seems it in my anguish lone,
As though God forsook His own,
Yet I hold this knowledge fast,
God will surely help at last.
2 Though awhile it be delayed,
He denieth not His aid;
Though it come not oft with speed,
It will surely come in need.
3 As a father not too soon
Grants his child the longed-for boon,
So our God gives when He will;
Wait His pleasure and be still.
4 I can rest in thoughts of Him,
When all courage else grows dim,
For I know my soul shall prove
His is more than father's love.
5 Would the powers of ill affright,
I can smile at all their might;
Or the cross be pressing sore,
God, my God, lives evermore!
6 Man may hate me causelessly,
Man may plot to ruin me,
Foes my heart may piecer and rend:
God in heaven is still my Friend.
7 Earth may all her gifts deny,
Safe my treasure is on high;
And if heaven at last be mine,
All things else I can resign.
8 I renounce thee willingly,
World, I hate what pleases thee,
Baneful every gift of thine,
Only be my God still mine.
9 Ah Lord, if but Thee I have,
Nought of other good I crave,
Bright is even death's dark road,
If but Thou art there, my God. Languages: English
Seems it in my anguish lone
In God, my faithful God
Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymnal. 9th ed. #a413 (1895) Topics: The Walk of Godliness Cross and Consolation Lyrics: 1 In God, my faithful God,
I trust when dark my road;
Though many woes o’ertake me,
Yet He will not forsake me;
His love it is doth send them,
And when ’tis best will end them.
2 My sins assail me sore,
But I despair no more;
I build on Christ who loves me,
From this Rock nothing moves me,
Since I can all surrender
To Him, my soul’s Defender.
3 If death my portion be,
Then death is gain to me,
And Christ my Life for ever,
From whom death cannot sever;
Come when it may, He’ll shield me,
To Him I'll wholly yield me.
4 'So be it,' then I say,
With all my heart each day;
Guide us while here we wander,
Till safely landed yonder,
We too, dear Lord, adore Thee,
And sing for joy before Thee. Languages: English
In God, my faithful God
My faith securely buildeth
Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymnal. 9th ed. #a414 (1895) Topics: The Walk of Godliness Cross and Consolation Lyrics: 1 My faith securely buildeth
On Christ who shed His blood;
This, and this only, yieldeth
The true eternal good.
The life that my soul liveth,
Finds nothing on the earth;
What Christ, the Savior, giveth
Of all our love is worth.
2 No angel, nought that gladdens,
No throne nor majesty,
No love, nor aught that saddens,
No grief nor misery,
Nor aught that man discovers,
Now be it small or great,
From Thee, my heavenly Lover's
Embrace can separate.
3 My heart with joy is springing,
And sad I cannot be;
'Tis full of joy and singing,
The sunshine doth it see.
The Sun that looks with pleasure
On me is Christ my King;
The glory beyond measure
That waits me, makes me sing. Languages: English
My faith securely buildeth
