Not in Anger, Mighty God

Author: J. G. Albinus, 1624-79; C. Winkworth, 1827-78 Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymnary #454 (1996) Meter: 7.6.7.6.3.3.6.6 Lyrics: 1 Not in anger, mighty God, Not in anger smite us. We must perish if Thy rod Justly should requite us. We are naught; Sin hath brought, Lord, Thy wrath upon us. Yet have mercy on us! 2 Show me now a Father's love And His tender patience. Heal my wounded soul; remove These too sore temptations. I am weak; Father, speak Thou of peace and gladness; Comfort Thou my sadness. 3 Weary am I of my pain, Weary with my sorrow, Sighing still for help in vain, Longing for the morrow. Why wilt Thou Tarry now! Wilt Thou friendless leave me And of hope bereave me? 4 Hence ye foes, He comes in grace; God hath deigned to hear me. I may come before His face, He is inly near me. He o'erthrows All my foes, Death and hell are vanquished In whose bonds I languished. 5 Father, hymns to Thee we raise Here and once in heaven, And the Son and Spirit praise, Who our bonds have riven. Evermore We adore Thee whose love hath stirred us And whose pity heard us. Topics: Humility: Pharisee and Publican; Trinity 11 Languages: English Tune Title: STRAF MICH NICHT

Cast me not in wrath away

Author: Johann Georg Albinus; Rev. Emanuel Cronenwett Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran hymnal #235 (1908) Lyrics: 1 Cast me not in wrath away, Stay Thy hot displeasure! God of grace, why wilt Thou slay? Mete not with just measure! I am frail: O, prevail Thou for me, atone me, Lamb of God, and own me. 2 In the pit who thinks of Thee? Who will there adore Thee? In Thy mercy save Thou me! That, for aye, before Thee, I may raise: Grateful praise For the grace that spared me, When sin death prepared me. 3 Father! let me taste Thy love, And Thy grace, dear Savior; Blessed Comforter above, Hallow my behavior: Be Thou mine: And I Thine With the oil of gladness Soothe Thou all my sadness. 4 Praise, O Father, be for aye Thine on earth, in heaven; And like praises be alway, Savior, to Thee given. Holy Dove, God of love, Thou hast heard;--I bless Thee! Praise for aye address Thee. Topics: The Catechism Repentance Languages: English Tune Title: NASSAU (Straf mich nicht in deinem Zorn)

Rise, My Soul, to Watch and Pray

Author: J. B. Freystein, 1671-1718; C. Winkworth, 1827-78 Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymnary #253 (1996) Meter: 7.6.7.6.3.3.6.6 Lyrics: 1 Rise, my soul, to watch and pray; From thy sleep awaken! Be not by the evil day Unawares o'ertaken. For the foe, Well we know, Oft his harvest reapeth While the Christian sleepeth. 2 Watch against the devil's snares Lest asleep he find thee; For indeed no pains he spares To deceive and blind thee. Satan's prey Oft are they Who secure are sleeping And no watch are keeping. 3 Watch! Let not the wicked world With its pow'r defeat thee. Watch lest with her pomp unfurled She betray and cheat thee. Watch and see Lest there be Faithless friends to charm thee, Who but seek to harm thee. 4 Watch against thyself, my soul, Lest with grace thou trifle; Let not self thy thoughts control Nor God's mercy stifle. Pride and sin Lurk within All thy hopes to scatter; Heed not when they flatter. 5 But while watching, also pray To the Lord unceasing. He will free thee, be thy Stay, Strength and faith increasing. O Lord, bless In distress And let nothing swerve me From the will to serve Thee. 6 Therefore let us watch and pray, Knowing He will hear us As we see from day to day Dangers ever near us, And the end Doth impend-- Our redemption neareth When the Lord appeareth.

Up, my soul, gird thee with pow'r

Author: Johann Burchard Freystein; Rev. Emanuel Cronenwett Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran hymnal #396 (1908) Lyrics: 1 Up, my soul, gird thee with power, Watch! to prayer betake thee; Lest the sudden evil hour Unawares o'ertake thee. Satan's prey Soon are they, Who, with best endeavor, Watch not, pray not, ever. 2 But first rouse thee, and awake From secure indiff'rence; Else will follow in its wake Woe without deliv'rance. Take thou heed! Utter need, Death in sins might find thee, Ere thou look behind thee. 3 Wake, arouse! else can the Lord Not enlighten, ground thee; Nor thou see the quickening Word Shine in splendor round thee. God demands Eyes and hands Open for the offers, He so richly proffers. 4 With thy watching mingle prayer; Grace but rids from slumber. God rids thee from slothful care And the weights that cumber; Else will still Mind and will Lukewarm praises tender, And cold service render. 5 God will have it that we ask, And it shall be given; Who pray alway, alway bask In the grace of heaven. Ere they plead Will He heed, Strengthen, keep, defend them, And deliv'rance send them. 6 Cheer thee then, my soul! all must Work for good, and bless us, If we but in prayerful trust To God's Son address us; And He will Richly fill, And His Spirit send us, Who to Him commend us. 7 Let us watch then, pray, with heed, God will prove our Hearer; For the hour of utmost need Constantly draws nearer. Saints will cheer, Sinners fear, When the trumpet calleth, Earth in ruins falleth.

Rise, My Soul, To Watch And Pray

Author: Anna Hoppe Hymnal: American Lutheran Hymnal #243 (1930) Meter: 7.6.7.6.3.3.6.6 Lyrics: 1 Rise, my soul, to watch and pray, From Thy sleep awaken; Be not by the evil day Unawares o'ertaken; Lest the foe Bring thee low In his base endeavor, Be thou watchful ever. 2 Wield the Spirit's trusty sword, Bid the foe defiance; In the armor of the Lord Place thy firm reliance. Human strength Fails at length, And will naught avail thee When hell's hosts assail thee. 3 Jesus, Who Thy blood hast shed For my soul's salvation, Who hast crushed the serpent's head, Stay me in temptation; Calm my fears, Dry my tears, Be my shield and tower In the evil hour. 4 Thou Who art the Prince of Life And from death hast freed me, Help me conquer in the strife; As my Captain lead me, Till at last I have passed Thro' the golden portal Unto life immortal.

Russell Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #9636 Meter: 7.6.7.6.8.8.6.6 Lyrics: 1 O do not against me, Lord, Thy displeasure cherish; Give me not my just reward; Leave me not to perish.

Cheer my face—with Thy grace; Oil of consolation, Gladness and salvation. 3 O my foe, depart from me; God hath heard my crying: Him I seek, from fear set free, To His presence flying. Hence dismay—hence away: All my sorrow ceaseth; God my heart releaseth. 4 Holy Father! endless praise Here and in high Heaven, All shall to Thy glory raise, Praise to Christ be given Praise to Thee—ever be, Holy Ghost who hearest, And Thy suppliants cheerest.
