Jesus Lives, and So Shall I

Author: Christian F. Gellert; John Dunmore Lang Hymnal: HTLG2017 #173 (2017) Meter: 7.8.7.8.7.7 Person Name: Christian F. Gellert Lyrics: 1 Jesus lives, and so shall I; Death, thy sting is gone forever! He who deigned for me to die lives, the bands of death to sever. He shall raise me with the just: Jesus is my Hope and Trust. 2 Jesus lives, and reigns supreme, and, His kingdom still remaining, I shall also be with Him, ever living, ever reigning. God has promised: be it must: Jesus is my Hope and Trust. 3 Jesus lives, and God extends grace to each returning sinner; rebels He receives as friends and exalts to highest honor. God is True as He is Just; Jesus is my Hope and Trust. 4 Jesus lives, and by His grace, vict'ry o'er my passions giving, I will cleanse my heart and ways, ever to His glory living. Me He raises from the dust; Jesus is my Hope and Trust. 5 Jesus lives! I know full well nought from Him my heart can sever, life nor death nor pow'rs of hell, joy nor grief, henceforth forever. None of all His saints is lost; Jesus is my Hope and Trust. 6 Jesus lives, and death is now but my entrance into glory. Courage, then, my soul, for thou hast a crown of life before thee; thou shalt find thy hopes were just; Jesus is the Christian's Trust.

Jesus, Thy Boundless Love to Me

Author: Paul Gerhardt; John Wesley Hymnal: HTLG2017 #71 (2017) Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Person Name: Paul Gerhardt Lyrics: 1 Jesus, Thy boundless love to me, no thought can reach, no tongue declare; O knit my thankful heart to Thee, and reign without a rival there. Thine wholly, Thine alone, I am; be Thou my Rod and Staff and Guide. 2 O grant that nothing in my soul may dwell, but Thy pure love alone! O may Thy love possess my whole, my Joy, my Treasure, and my Crown. All coldness from my heart remove; my ev'ry act, word, thought, be love. 3 O love, how cheering is thy ray! All pain before thy presence flies; care, anguish, sorrow, melt away, where'er thy healing beams arise. O Jesus, nothing may I see, nothing desire or seek, but Thee. 4 This love unwearied I pursue and dauntlessly to Thee aspire. O may Thy love my hope renew, burn in my soul like heav'nly fire. And day and night, be all my care to guard this sacred treasure there. Topics: Revelation and Adoration Languages: English Tune Title: RYBURN

O Lord, How Shall I Meet You

Author: Paul Gerhardt; Catherine Winkworth Hymnal: HTLG2017 #100 (2017) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Person Name: Paul Gerhardt Lyrics: 1 O Lord, how shall I meet You, how welcome You aright? Your people long to greet You, my Hope, my heart’s Delight! O, kindle, Lord most holy, Your lamp within my breast to do in spirit lowly all that may please You best. 2 Love caused Your incarnation; love brought You down to me. Your thirst for my salvation procured my liberty. O, love beyond all telling, that led You to embrace in love, all love excelling, our lost and fallen race. 3 Rejoice, then, you sad-hearted, who sit in deepest gloom, who mourn your joys departed and tremble at your doom. Despair not; He is near you, there, standing at the door, who best can help and cheer you and bids you weep no more. 4 Sin's debt, that fearful burden, let not your soul distress; your guilt the Lord will pardon and cover by His grace. He comes, for men procuring the peace of sin forgiv'n, for all God's sons securing their heritage in heav'n. 5 He comes to judge the nations, a terror to His foes, a light of consolations and blessed hope to those who love the Lord's appearing. O glorious Sun, now come, send forth Your beams most cheering and guide us safely home. Topics: Jesus Christ Advent Languages: English Tune Title: WIE SOLL ICH DICH EMPFANGEN

All My Heart This Night Rejoices

Author: Paul Gerhardt; Catherine Winkworth Hymnal: HTLG2017 #130 (2017) Meter: 8.3.3.6.7.3.3.6 Person Name: Paul Gerhardt Lyrics: 1 All my heart this night rejoices as I hear far and near sweetest angel voices. "Christ is born," their choirs are singing till the air ev'rywhere now with joy is ringing. 2 Forth today the Conqu'ror goeth, who the foe, sin and woe, death and hell, o'erthroweth. God is man, man to deliver; His dear Son now is one with our blood forever. 3 Shall we still dread God's displeasure, who, to save, freely gave His most cherished Treasure? To redeem us, He hath given His own Son from the throne of His might in heaven. 4 He becomes the Lamb that taketh sin away and for aye full atonement maketh. For our life His own He tenders; and our race, by His grace, fit for glory renders. 5 Hark! a voice from yonder manger, soft and sweet, doth entreat, "Flee from woe and danger; brethren, from all ills that grieve you you are freed; all you need I will surely give you." 6 Come, then, banish all your sadness, one and all, great and small; come with songs of gladness. Love Him who with love is glowing; hail the star, near and far light and joy bestowing. 7 Dearest Lord, Thee will I cherish. Though my breath fail in death, yet I shall not perish, but with Thee abide for ever there on high, in that joy which can vanish never.

Give to the Winds Thy Fears

Author: Paul Gerhardt; John Wesley Hymnal: HTLG2017 #314 (2017) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Person Name: Paul Gerhardt Lyrics: 1 Give to the winds thy fears, hope and be undismayed; God hears thy sighs and counts thy tears; God shall lift up thy head. 2 Through waves and clouds and storms, He gently clears the way; wait thou His time, so shall this night soon end in joyous day. 3 Still heavy is thy heart, still sink thy spirits down? Cast off the weight, let fear depart, and ev'ry care be gone. 4 What though thou rulest not, yet heav'n, and earth, and hell proclaim, God sitteth on the throne, and ruleth all things well. 5 Leave to His sov'reign sway to choose and to command, so shalt thou wond'ring own His way, how wise, how strong His hand! 6 Far, far above thy thought His counsel shall appear, when fully He the work hath wrought, that caused thy needless fear. 7 Thou seest our weakness, Lord, our hearts are known to Thee; O lift Thou up the sinking heart, confirm the feeble knee. 8 Let us in life, in death, Thy steadfast truth declare, and publish with our latest breath Thy love and guardian care.

The Duteous Day Now Closeth

Author: Paul Gerhardt; Robert S. Bridges Hymnal: HTLG2017 #342 (2017) Meter: 7.7.6.7.7.8 Person Name: Paul Gerhardt Lyrics: 1 The duteous day now closeth, each flow'r and tree reposeth, shade creeps o’er wild and wood; let us, as night is falling, on God our Maker calling, give thanks to Him, the Giver good. 2 Now all the heav'nly splendor breaks forth in starlight tender from myriad worlds unknown; and man, the marvel seeing, forgets his selfish being, for joy of beauty not his own. 3 His care he drowneth yonder, lost in th'abyss of wonder; to heav'n his soul doth steal; this life he disesteemeth, the day it is that dreameth, that doth from truth his vision seal. 4 Awhile his mortal blindness may miss God’s loving-kindness and grope in faithless strife; but when life’s day is over shall death’s fair night discover the fields of everlasting life.

O Master, Let Me Walk With Thee

Author: Washington Gladden Hymnal: HTLG2017 #249 (2017) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Person Name: Washington Gladden Lyrics: 1 O Master, let me walk with Thee in lowly paths of service free; tell me Thy secret; help me bear the strain of toil, the fret of care. 2 Help me the slow of heart to move by some clear, winning word of love; teach me the wayward feet to stay, and guide them in the homeward way. 3 Teach me Thy patience, still with Thee in closer, dearer company, in work that keeps faith sweet and strong, in trust that triumphs over wrong. 4 In hope that sends a shining ray far down the future's broad'ning way; in peace that only Thou canst give, with Thee, O Master, let me live.

The Spacious Heavens Declare

Hymnal: HTLG2017 #49 (2017) Meter: 6.6.6.6.8.8 Person Name: John Goss First Line: The spacious heav'ns declare Lyrics: 1 The spacious heav'ns declare the glory of our God, the firmament displays His handiwork abroad; day unto day proclaims His might, and night His wisdom tells to night. 2 Aloud they do not speak, they utter forth no word, nor into language break - their voice is never heard; yet through the world the truth they bear and their Creator's pow'r declare. 3 The clouds of heav'n are spread, a tent to hold the sun, and like a bridegroom fair comes forth the mighty one, rejoicing in his strength and grace to run his wondrous daily race. 4 His daily going forth is from the end of heav'n; the firmament to him is for his circuit giv'n; his journey reaches to its ends, and ev'rywhere his heat extends.

O Worship the King

Author: Robert Grant Hymnal: HTLG2017 #29 (2017) Meter: 10.10.11.11 Person Name: Robert Grant First Line: O worship the King, all-glorious above Lyrics: 1 O worship the King, all glorious above, and gratefully sing His pow'r and His love; our Shield and Defender, the Ancient of Days, pavilioned in splendor, and girded with praise. 2 O tell of His might, O sing of His grace, whose robe is the light, whose canopy space. His chariots of wrath the deep thunderclouds form, and dark is His path on the wings of the storm. 3 The earth with its store of wonders untold, almighty, Thy pow'r hath founded of old; established it fast by a changeless decree, and round it hath cast, like a mantle, the sea. 4 Thy bountiful care, what tongue can recite? It breathes in the air, it shines in the light, it streams from the hills, it descends to the plain, and sweetly distills in the dew and the rain. 5 Frail children of dust, and feeble as frail, in Thee do we trust, nor find Thee to fail; Thy mercies how tender! how firm to the end! Our Maker, Defender, Redeemer, and Friend. Topics: Revelation and Adoration Languages: English Tune Title: LYONS
