Christ the Life of all the living
Author: Ernest Christopher Homburg; Miss Winkworth Hymnal: CBWM1872 #178 (1890) Meter: 8.7.7 Person Name: Ernest Christopher Homburg Lyrics: 1 Christ, the Life of all the living,
Christ, the Death of death our foe,
Who Thyself for me once giving
To the darkest depths of woe,
Patiently didst yield Thy breath
But to save my soul from death;
Thousand, thousand thanks shall be,
Dearest Jesus, unto Thee.
2 Thou, ah Thou, hast taken on Thee
Bitter strokes, a cruel rod;
Pain and scorn were heaped upon Thee,
0 Thou sinless Son of God.
Only thus for me to win
Rescue from the bonds of sin;
Thousand, thousand thanks shall be,
Dearest Jesus, unto Thee.
3 Thou didst bear the smiting only
That it might not fall on me;
Stoodest falsely charge and lonely,
that I might be safe and free;
Comfortless that I might know
Comfort from Thy boundless woe.
Thousand, thousand thanks shall be,
Dearest Jesus, unto Thee.
4 Then for all that wrought our pardon,
For Thy sorrows deep and sore,
For Thine anguish in the garden,
I will thank Thee evermore;
Thank Thee with my latest breath
For Thy sad and cruel death,
For that last and bitter cry:
Praise Thee evermore on high. Topics: Good Friday; Passion Week; Good Friday Languages: English Tune Title: JESU, MEINES LEBENS LEBEN

The darkness from our eyes.

Of never-dying love.

The secret Love of God.

To sanctify the soul,

Good Lord, remember me!

Till thou receive thy crown.

Gave to our world below,
To mortal want and labor born,
And more than mortal woe!
2 Incarnate Word, by every grief,
By each temptation tried,
Who lived to yield our ills relief,
And to redeem us died!
3 If gaily clothed and proudly fed,
In dangerous wealth we dwell,
Remind us of Thy manger bed
And lowly cottage cell.
4 If prest by poverty severe,
In anxious want we pine,
O may Thy Spirit whisper near,
How poor a lot was Thine!
5 Through fickle fortune's various scene,
From sin preserve us free;
Like us Thou hast a mourner been,
May we rejoice with Thee. Topics: Example and Teaching of Christ; Christmas Day; Seventeenth Sunday after Trinity Languages: English Tune Title: BURFORD
O Saviour, whom that holy morn
From Greenland's icy mountains
Author: Reginald Heber Hymnal: CBWM1872 #297 (1890) Meter: 7.6 Person Name: Reginald Heber Lyrics: 1 From Greenland's icy mountains,
From India's coral strand;
Where Afric's bright fountains
Roll down their golden sand;
From many an ancient river,
From many a palmy plain,
They call us to deliver
Their land from error's chain.
2 What though the spicy breezes
Blow soft o'er Ceylon's isle;
Though every prospect pleases,
And only man is vile:
In vain with lavish kindness
The gifts of God are strown:
The heathen, in his blindness,
Bows down to wood and stone.
3 Shall we, whose souls are lighted
With wisdom from on high,
Shall we to men benighted
The lamp of life deny?
Salvation! O salvation!
The joyful sound proclaim,
Till each remotest nation
Has learned Messiah's Name.
4 Waft, waft, ye winds, His story,
And you, ye waters, roll,
Till, like a sea of glory,
It spreads from pole to pole;
Till o'er our ransomed nature
The Lamb for sinners slain,
Redeemer, King, Creator,
In bliss returns to reign. Topics: The Church Missions Languages: English Tune Title: MISSIONARY HYMN

We seek Thy grace alone,

To keep us still Thine own! Topics: Children; Epiphany, First Sunday Languages: English Tune Title: HEBER

The souls now lost in error's maze,

Some dark delusion hurts and blinds.

To every wounded conscience given,
And let them also share Thy heaven.
4 O make the deaf to hear Thy Word,
And teach the dumb to speak, dear Lord,
Who dare not yet the faith avow,
Though secretly they hold it now.
5 Shine on the darkened and the cold,
Recall the wanderers to Thy fold,
Unite those now who walk apart,
Confirm the weak and doubting heart.

Such grace with wondering thanks adore,
And endless praise to Thee be given,
By all Thy Church in earth and heaven. Topics: Epiphany; Epiphany, Second Sunday; Epiphany, Sixth Sunday; Third Sunday after Trinity; Tenth Sunday after Trinity Languages: English Tune Title: HERR JESU CHRIST, MEIN'S LEBENS LICHT

And gladly, as Thou blessest us,
To Thee our first fruits give.

And homes are bare and cold,
And lambs, for whom the Shepherd bled,
Are straying from the fold!

To find a balm for woe,
To tend the lone and fatherless
Is angels' work below.

The lost to God to bring,
To teach the way of life and peace,--

Though dim our faith may be;

We do it unto Thee. Topics: The Christian Life Benevolence; Thirteenth Sunday after Trinity Languages: English Tune Title: POTSDAM

Be Thou my soul's sure Hiding-place,
In this my gracious day:

The riches of Thy grace. Topics: Death and Eternity Judgment; Advent, Second Sunday; Twenty Sixth Sunday after Trinity; Twenty Seventh Sunday after Trinity Languages: English Tune Title: ACH! WAS SOLL ICH SÜNDER MACHEN

Christ has burst His prison,
And from three days’ sleep in death,
As a sun, has risen.
3 All the winter of our sins,
Long and dark, is flying
From His Light, to whom we give
Thanks and praise undying.
4 Neither might the gates of death,
Nor the tomb’s dark portal,
Nor the watchers, nor the seal,
Hold Thee as a mortal:
5 But to-day amidst the twelve,
Thou didst stand, bestowing
That thy peace, which evermore
Passeth human knowing. Topics: Easter; Easter Sunday Languages: English Tune Title: EASTER
