Ah, Holy Jesus

Author: Johann Heerman; Robert S. Bridges Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #67 Meter: 11.11.11.5 Hymnal Title: The Cyber Hymnal First Line: Ah, holy Jesus, how hast Thou offended Lyrics: 1. Ah, holy Jesus, how hast Thou offended, That man to judge Thee hath in hate pretended? By foes derided, by Thine own rejected, O most afflicted. 2. Who was the guilty? Who brought this upon Thee? Alas, my treason, Jesus, hath undone Thee. ’Twas I, Lord, Jesus, I it was denied Thee! I crucified Thee. 3. Lo, the Good Shepherd for the sheep is offered; The slave hath sinned, and the Son hath suffered; For man’s atonement, while he nothing heedeth, God intercedeth. 4. For me, kind Jesus, was Thy incarnation, Thy mortal sorrow, and Thy life’s oblation; Thy death of anguish and Thy bitter passion, For my salvation. 5. Therefore, kind Jesus, since I cannot pay Thee, I do adore Thee, and will ever pray Thee, Think on Thy pity and Thy love unswerving, Not my deserving.

O Dearest Jesus

Author: Johann Heerman; Catherine Winkworth Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #4772 Meter: 11.11.11.5 Hymnal Title: The Cyber Hymnal First Line: O dearest Jesus, what law hast Thou broken Lyrics: 1. O dearest Jesus, what law hast Thou broken That such sharp sentence should on Thee be spoken? Of what great crime hast Thou to make confession— What dark transgression? 2. They crown Thy head with thorns, they smite, they scourge Thee; With cruel mockings to the cross they urge Thee; They give Thee gall to drink, they still decry Thee; They crucify Thee. 3. Whence come these sorrows, whence this mortal anguish? It is my sins for which Thou, Lord, must languish; Yea, all the wrath, the woe, Thou dost inherit, This I do merit. 4. What punishment so strange is suffered yonder! The Shepherd dies for sheep that loved to wander; The Master pays the debt His servants owe Him, Who would not know Him. 5. The sinless Son of God must die in sadness; The sinful child of man may live in gladness; Man forfeited his life and is acquitted— God is committed. 6. There was no spot in me by sin untainted; Sick with sin’s poison, all my heart had fainted; My heavy guilt to hell had well-nigh brought me, Such woe it wrought me. 7. O wondrous love, whose depth no heart hath sounded, That brought Thee here, by foes and thieves surrounded! All worldly pleasures, heedless, I was trying While Thou wert dying. 8. O mighty King, no time can dim Thy glory! How shall I spread abroad Thy wondrous story? How shall I find some worthy gifts to proffer? What dare I offer? 9. For vainly doth our human wisdom ponder— Thy woes, Thy mercy, still transcend our wonder. Oh, how should I do aught that could delight Thee! Can I requite Thee? 10. Yet unrequited, Lord, I would not leave Thee; I will renounce whate’er doth vex or grieve Thee And quench with thoughts of Thee and prayers most lowly All fires unholy. 11. But since my strength will nevermore suffice me To crucify desires that still entice me, To all good deeds, oh, let Thy Spirit win me And reign within me! 12. I’ll think upon Thy mercy without ceasing, That earth’s vain joys to me no more be pleasing; To do Thy will shall be my sole endeavor Henceforth forever. 13. Whate’er of earthly good this life may grant me, I’ll risk for Thee; no shame, no cross, shall daunt me; I shall not fear what man can do to harm me Nor death alarm me. 14. But worthless is my sacrifice, I own it; Yet, Lord, for love’s sake Thou wilt not disown it; Thou wilt accept my gift in Thy great meekness Nor shame my weakness. 15. And when, dear Lord, before Thy throne in Heaven To me the crown of joy at last is given, Where sweetest hymns Thy saints forever raise Thee, I, too, shall praise Thee.

Author: Johann Heermann; Catherine Winkworth Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #5121 Meter: 11.11.11.5 Hymnal Title: The Cyber Hymnal First Line: O Lord, our Father, shall we be confounded Lyrics: 1. O Lord, our Father, shall we be confounded Who, though by trials and woes surrounded, On Thee alone for help are still relying, To Thee are crying? 2. Lord, put to shame Thy foes who breathe defiance And vainly make their might their sole reliance; In mercy turn to us, the poor and stricken, Our hope to quicken. 3. Be Thou our helper and our strong defender; Speak to our foes and cause them to surrender. Yea, long before their plans have been completed, They are defeated. 4. ’Tis vain to trust in man; for Thou, Lord, only Art the defense and comfort of the lonely. With Thee to lead, the battle shall be glorious And we victorious. 5. Thou art our hero, all our foes subduing; Save Thou Thy little flock they are pursuing. We seek Thy help; for Jesus’ sake be near us. Great Helper, hear us! Languages: English Tune Title: HERZLIEBSTER JESU

When The Fierce North Wind

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #8875 Meter: 11.11.11.5 Hymnal Title: The Cyber Hymnal First Line: When the fierce north wind with his airy forces Lyrics: 1 When the fierce north wind with his airy forces Rears up the Baltic to a foaming fury; And flame of lightning, with a storm of hail comes Rushing amain down. 2 How the poor sailors stand amazed and tremble! While the hoarse thunder, like a bloody trumpet, Roars a loud onset to the gaping water Quick to devour them. 3 Such shall the noise be, and the wild disorder, If things eternal may be like these earthly; Such the dire terror when the great archangel Shakes all creation. 4 Tears the strong pillars of the vault of Heaven, Breaks up old marble, the repose of princes; See the graves open, and the bones arising, Flames all around them! 5 Hark, the shrill outcries of the guilty wretches! Lively bright horror, and amazing anguish; Stare through their eyelids, while the living worm lies Gnawing within them. 6 Thoughts, like old vultures, prey upon their heart strings, And the smart twinges, when their eye beholds the Lofty Judge frowning, and a flood of vengeance Rolling afore Him. 7 Hopeless immortals! how they scream and shiver While devils push them to the pit wide yawning, Hideous and gloomy, to receive them headlong Down to the center. 8 Stop here, my fancy: all away, ye horrid Doleful ideas, come, now arise to Jesus; How he sits Godlike! And the saints around Him Throned, yet adoring! 9 O may I sit there when He comes triumphant, Dooming the nations! Then ascend to glory, While our hosannas all along the passage Shout the Redeemer.

What Law, Beloved Jesu

Author: Johann Heerman; Arthur T. Russell Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #9664 Meter: 11.11.11.5 Hymnal Title: The Cyber Hymnal First Line: What law, beloved Jesu, hast Thou broken? Lyrics: 1 What law, belovèd Jesu, hast Thou broken? Why have Thy foes such cruel judgment spoken? What is Thy crime? for what do they disdain Thee? Why thus arraign Thee? 2 What laid on Thee the griefs Thy soul endurèd? Ah! Lord, my guilt Thy stripes and wounds procurèd; My sad desert, whose sins my God have grievèd, Thou has receivèd. 3 How great, how wonderful is this correction, The Shepherd’s death becomes His sheep’s protection! The servant’s sin to Heav’n for vengeance crieth; His good Lord dieth! 4 To reach Thy grace in vain all thought ascendeth; Above my praise Thy mercy far exendeth! Thy deeds of love surpass our utmost measure Of work and treasure. Languages: English Tune Title: HERZLIEBSTER JESU

From The Recesses Of A Lowly Spirit

Author: John Bowring Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #10497 Meter: 11.11.11.5 Hymnal Title: The Cyber Hymnal Lyrics: 1 From the recesses of a lowly spirit, Our humble prayer ascends; O Father! hear it, Upsoaring on the wings of awe and meekness; Forgive its weakness! 2 I know, I feel, how mean and how unworthy The trembling sacrifice I pour before Thee; What can I offer in Thy presence holy, But sin and folly? 3 For in Thy sight—who every bosom viewest, Cold are our warmest vows, and vain our truest; Thoughts of a hurrying hour; our lips repeat them, Our hearts forget them. 4 We see Thy hand—it leads us, it supports us: We hear Thy voice—it counsels and it courts us: And then we turn away—and still Thy kindness Pardons our blindness. 5 And still Thy rain descends, Thy sun is glowing, Fruits ripen round, flowers are beneath us blowing And, as if man were some deserving creature, Joys cover nature. 6 O how long-suffering, Lord! but Thou delightest To win with love the wandering—Thou invitest, By smiles of mercy—not by frowns or terrors, Man from his errors. 7 Father and Savior! plant within that bosom The seeds of holiness—and bid them blossom In fragrance and in beauty bright and vernal, And spring eternal. 8 Then place them in Thine everlasting gardens, Where angels walk, and seraphs are the wardens; Where every flower that creeps thro’ death’s dark portal, Becomes immortal.

Herzliebster Jesu

Author: Johann Heerman Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #13511 Meter: 11.11.11.5 Hymnal Title: The Cyber Hymnal First Line: Herzliebster Jesu, was hast du verbrochen Lyrics: 1 Herzliebster Jesu, was hast du verbrochen, Daß man ein solch scharf Urteil hat gesprochen? Was ist die Schuld? In was für Missetaten Bist du geraten? 2 Du wirst verspeit, geschlagen und verhöhnet, Gegeißelt und mit Dornen scharf gekrönet, Mit Essig, als man dich ans Kreuz gehenket, Wirst du getränket. 3 Was ist die Ursach’ aller solcher Plagen? Ach, meine Sünden haben dich geschlagen! Ich, ach Herr Jesu, habe dies verschuldet, Was du erduldet. 4 Wie wunderbarlich ist doch diese Strafe! Der gute Hirte leidet für die Schafe, Die Schuld bezahlt der Herre, der Gerechte, Für seine Knechte. 5 Der Fromme stirbt, so recht und richtig wandelt; Der Böse lebt, so wider Gott misshandelt; Der Mensch verwirkt den Tod und ist entgangen, Gott wird gefangen. 6 Ich war von Fuß auf voller Schand’ und Sünden, Bis zu dem Scheitel war nichts Gut’s zu finden; Dafür hätt’ ich dort in der Hölle müßen Ewiglich büßen. 7 O große Lieb’, o Lieb’ ohn’ alle Maße, Die dich gebracht auf diese Marterstraße! Ich lebte mit der Welt in Lust und Freuden, Und du mußt leiden. 8 Ach, großer König, groß zu allen Zeiten, Wie kann ich g’nugsam solche Treu’ ausbreiten! Kein menschlich Herze mag sich dies ausdenken, Was dir zu schenken. 9 Ich kann’s mit meinen Sinnen nicht erreichen, Mit was doch dein Erbarmen zu vergleichen; Wie kann ich dir denn deine Liebestaten Im Werk erstatten? 10 Doch ist noch etwas, das dir angenehme: Wenn ich des Fleisches Lüste dämpf’ und zähme, Daß sie aufs neu’ mein Herze nicht entzünden Mit alten Sünden. 11 Weil aber dies nicht steht in eignen Kräften, Dem Kreuze die Begierden anzuheften, So gib mir deinen Geist, der mich regiere, Zum Guten führe! 12 Alsdann so werd’ ich deine Huld betrachten, Aus Lieb’ zu dir die Welt für nichts erachten. Ich werde mich bemühen, deinen Willen Stets zu erfüllen. 13 Ich werde dir zu Ehren alles wagen, Kein Kreuz nicht achten, keine Schmach noch Plagen, Nichts von Verfolgung, nichts von Todesschmerzen Nehmen zu Herzen. 14 Dies alles, ob’s für schlecht zwar ist zu schätzen, Wirst du es doch nicht gar beiseite setzen. In Gnaden wirst du dies von mir annehmen, Mich nicht beschämen. 15 Wenn dort, Herr Jesu, wird vor deinem Throne Auf meinem Haupte stehn die Ehrenkrone, Da will ich dir, wenn alles wird wohl klingen, Lob und Dank singen.

Christ, le seul juste, rachetant nos crimes, S’offre en victime. 2 Il intercède jusqu’à l’agonie, Quand on le juge, quand on le renie, Quand on le frappe, quand on l’abandonne: "Père, pardonne!" 3 Oh! saint exemple qui nous humilie! Oh! sacrifice qui nous rend la vie! Christ est le gage de la délivrance, Notre espérance. 4 Toi qui nous sauves, qui nous rends au Père, Que son royaume vienne sur la terre! Qu’il s’établisse parmi ceux qui l’aiment, Comme au ciel même! Languages: French Tune Title: HERZLIEBSTER JESU
