Sing Praise to God Who Reigns Above
Author: Johann Jakob Schütz, 1640-1690 Hymnal: Hymnal and Order of Service #123 (1901) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.8.7 Hymnal Title: Hymnal and Order of Service Lyrics: 1 Sing praise to God who reigns above,
The God of all creation,
The God of power, the God of love,
The God of our salvation.
With healing balm my soul He fills,
And every faithless murmur stills:
To God all praise and glory!
2 The angel host, O King of kings,
Thy praise forever telling.
In earth and sky all living things
Beneath Thy shadow dwelling,
Adore the wisdom that could span,
And power which formed creation's plan;
To God all praise and glory!
3 I cried to God in my distress,
His mercy heard me calling;
My Saviour saw my helplessness,
And kept my feet from falling;
For this, Lord, praise and thanks to Thee!
Praise God Most High, praise God with me!
To God all praise and glory!
4 Thus all my gladsome way along,
I'll sing aloud Thy praises,
That men may hear the grateful song
My voice unwearied raises:
Be joyful in the Lord, my heart!
Both soul and body, bear your part!
To God all praise and glory!

Sing Praise to God Who Reigns Above
Dear Christians one and all Rejoice
Author: Martin Luther, 1483-1546 Hymnal: Hymnal and Order of Service #267b (1901) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.8.7 Hymnal Title: Hymnal and Order of Service Lyrics: 1 Dear Christians one and all rejoice,
With exultation springing,
And, with united heart and voice
And holy rapture singing,
Proclaim the wonders God hath done,
How His right arm the victory won;
Right dearly it hath cost Him.
2 Fast bound in Satan's chains I lay,
Death brooded darkly o'er me,
Sin was my torment night and day,
In sin my mother bore me;
Deeper and deeper still I fell,
Life had become a living hell,
So firmly sin possessed me.
3 My good works so imperfect were,
They had no power to aid me;
My will God's judgments could not bear,
Yea, prone to evil made me:
Grief drove me to despair, and I
Had nothing left me but to die;
To hell I fast was sinking.
4 Then God beheld my wretched state
With deep commiseration;
He thought upon His mercy great,
And willed my soul's salvation;
He turned to me a Father's heart;
Not small the cost! to heal my smart,
He gave His best and dearest.
5 He spoke to His beloved Son:
"'Tis time to have compassion;
Then go, bright Jewel of my crown,
And bring to man salvation:
From sin and sorrow set him free,
Slay bitter death for him, that he
May live with Thee forever."
6 The Son obeyed Him cheerfully,
And born of virgin mother,
Came down upon the earth to me,
That He might be my brother:
His mighty power doth work unseen,
He came in fashion poor and mean,
And took the devil captive.
7 He sweetly said: "Hold fast by Me,
I am thy Rock and Castle,
Thy Ransom I myself will be,
For thee I strive and wrestle:
For I am with thee, I am thine,
And evermore thou shalt be mine,
The foe shall not divide us."
8 "The foe shall shed my precious blood,
Me of my life bereaving:
All this I suffer for thy good,
Be steadfast and believing:
Life shall from death the victory win,
My innocence shall bear thy sin,
So art thou blest forever."
9 "Now to my Father I depart,
From earth to heaven ascending,
Thence heavenly wisdom to impart,
The Holy Spirit sending:
He shall in trouble comfort thee,
Teach thee to know and follow me,
And to the truth shall conduct thee.
10 "What I have done and taught, teach thou,
My ways forsake thou never,
So shall My kingdom flourish now,
And God be praised, forever:
Take heed lest men with base alloy
The heavenly treasure should destroy;
This counsel I bequeath thee." Topics: Faith and Justification Languages: English Tune Title: AF HIMLENS HÄR DEN HÖGSTES MAKT

Your Word, O Lord, Is Gentle Dew
Author: Catherine Winkworth, 1827-1878; Carl B. Garve, 1763-1841 Hymnal: Lutheran Book of Worship #232 (1978) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.8.7 Hymnal Title: Lutheran Book of Worship Lyrics: 1 Your Word, O Lord, is gentle dew
To suff'ring hearts that want it;
Oh, shed your heav'nly balm anew,
To all your garden grant it;
Refreshed by you, may every tree
Bud forth and blossom gaily
And fruit and seed bring daily.
2 Your Word is like a flaming sword,
A sharp and mighty arrow,
A wedge that cleaves the rock; that Word
Can pierce through heart and marrow.
Oh, send it forth o'er all the earth,
To purge unrighteous leaven
And cleanse all hearts for heaven.
3 Your Word, a wondrous star, supplies
True guidance when we need it;
It points to Christ and so makes wise
All simple hearts that heed it;
Let not its light e'er sink in night,
But keep it brightly burning,
And fill our deepest yearning. Topics: The Word; Epiphany 5; The Word Languages: English Tune Title: AF HIMLENS

O Precious Saviour, Heal and Bless
Author: Anna Hoppe Hymnal: The Hymnal and Order of Service #393 (1926) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.8.7 Hymnal Title: The Hymnal and Order of Service Lyrics: 1 O precious Saviour, heal and bless
The suff'rers in affliction.
Thou knowest, Lord, their helplessness;
Look down in benediction
Upon the sick who seek Thine aid,
Let them in faith, all unafraid,
Rest in Thy tender mercy.
2 "Remember them that are in bonds,"
Thy Word so gently pleadeth,
Thy mercy to our prayers responds,
Thy kindness intercedeth.
Fill us with love, Thou Love divine,
Toward all who in affliction pine,
Let us reflect Thy patience.
3 O dearest Lord, remember those
In bonds of dread diseases;
Incarnate God, Thy wisdom knows
The balsam that releases.
Thou Sufferer of Calvary,
Let these afflicted hide in Thee,
And in Thy wounds find healing.
