Author: Reginald Heber Hymnal: Common Service Book of the Lutheran Church #85 (1917) Hymnal Title: Common Service Book of the Lutheran Church Lyrics: 1 Lord of mercy and of might,
Of mankind the Life and Light,
Maker, Teacher, Infinite:
Jesus, hear and save!
2 Strong Creator, Saviour mild,
Humbled to a mortal child,
Captive, beaten, bound, reviled:
Jesus, hear and save!
3 Throned above celestial things,
Borne aloft on angels' wings,
Lord of lords, and King of kings:
Jesus, hear and save!
4 Soon to come to earth again,
Judge of angels and of men,
Hear us now, and hear us then:
Jesus, hear and save!
Amen. Topics: The Church Year Lent: Litany Hymns Languages: English Tune Title: IRENE
