Now with joy my heart is bounding

Author: Paul Gerhardt; John Kelly Hymnal: Paul Gerhardt's Spiritual Songs #5 (1867) Meter: 8.3.3.6.8.3.3.6 Lyrics: Now with joy my heart is bounding, With delight Angels bright Praises forth are sounding. Hark! hark! how the choirs of Heaven, Through the sky Raise the cry, Christ to you is given! He who’s mighty to deliver, Goes that He Earth may free From all woes for ever. God is man, man to deliver, His dear Son Now is one With our blood for ever. God in us must now take pleasure, For He gives Whom He loves Far beyond all measure. To redeem us He hath given His own Son From the throne Of His might in Heaven. Who Himself and Kingdom ever, Giveth free, Oh! could He Drive us from Him?—never! Will not God’s own Son now bless us? He who loves And removes All things that distress us! Had our human nature ever By the Lord Been abhorr’d, He had been man never. Had our Lord delighted ever In our grief, He relief Would have brought us never. All transgression He assumeth, That we’ve done ’Neath the sun, And our Lamb becometh. As our Lamb His life is given, So that we, From death free, May have peace and Heaven! Now He’s in the manger lying, Me and thee Calleth He, In sweet accents crying, “Banish, brethren, what’s distressing, All your ills, All that falls, I bring times of blessing.” Come, and let us now go thither, Let us all, Great and small. Flock in crowds together. Love Him who with deep love burneth, See the light He so bright Kindly on us turneth. Ye who sink in deepest anguish, Look ye here, Joy is near, Grieve no more, nor languish. Cleave to Him and He will bring you To the place, By His grace, Where no pain will wring you. All ye hearts, oppress’d with sorrow, Ye who feel Sin’s sore ill And conviction’s arrow, Courage now! for One is living Who hath skill You to heal, All your pain relieving. All ye poor ones and distressèd, Come—come ye Take—’tis free, Of His store so blessèd. Here do all good gifts flow over, Here is gold Stores untold! Here your hearts recover! Gracious Saviour! deign to hear me, And let me Hang on thee, Undisturb’d stay near Thee. Of my life Thou art the Giver, I through Thee Joyfully Live contented ever. Guilt no longer can distress me, Son of God! Thou my load Bearest to release me. Stain in me Thou findest never, I am clean, All my sin Is remov’d for ever. For Thy sake I’m clean all over, Thou dost me Graciously With fair raiment cover. To my heart’s throne I will raise thee, Glory mine! Flow’r divine! Let me love and praise Thee. Diligently I’ll preserve Thee, To the skies To Thee rise, Here live for and serve Thee. With Thee I at last shall wander, Joyfully, Endlessly, And in glory yonder! Languages: English

A Song of Christian Joy

Author: Paul Gerhardt; John Kelly Hymnal: Paul Gerhardt's Spiritual Songs #45 (1867) Meter: 8.3.3.6.8.3.3.6 First Line: Why should sorrow ever grieve me? Lyrics: Why should sorrow ever grieve me? Christ is near, What can here E’er of Him deprive me? Who can rob me of my heaven That God’s Son, As mine own, To my faith hath given? Naked was I and unswathèd When on earth At my birth My first breath I breathèd. Naked hence shall I betake me, When I go From earth’s woe, And my breath forsake me. Nought—not e’en the life I’m living, Is mine own, God alone All to me is giving. Must I then His own restore Him? Though bereft Of each gift Still shall I adore Him. Though a heavy cross I’m bearing, And my heart Feels the smart, Shall I be despairing? God can help me, who doth send it, He doth know All my woe And how best to end it. God oft gives me days of gladness, Shall I grieve If He give Seasons too of sadness? God is good, and tempers ever Every hurt, Me desert Wholly can He never, Though united world and devil, All their pow’r Can no more Do than mock and cavil. Let derision now employ them, Christ e’en here Will appear And ’fore all destroy them. True believers shrinking never, Where they dwell Should reveal Their true colours ever. When approaching death would scare them, Still should they Patient stay And with courage bear them. Death can never kill us even, But relief From all grief To us then is given. It doth close life’s mournful story, Make a way That we may Pass to heav’nly glory. There I’ll reap enduring pleasure, After woe Here below Suffer’d in large measure. Lasting good we find here never, All the earth Deemeth worth Vanisheth for ever. What is all this life possesseth? But a hand Fall of sand That the heart distresseth. Noble gifts that pall me never, Christ so free There gives me To enjoy for ever. Shepherd! Lord! joy’s fountain ever, Thou art mine, I am Thine, No one can us sever. I am Thine, because Thou gavest Life and blood For my good, By Thy death me savest. Thou’rt mine, for I love and own Thee, Ne’er shall I, Light of joy, From my heart dethrone Thee. Let me, let me soon behold Thee Face to face, Thy embrace May it soon enfold me! Languages: English

All My Heart This Night Rejoices

Author: Paul Gerhardt; Catherine Winkworth Hymnal: The Lutheran Hymnal #77 (1941) Meter: 8.3.3.6.8.3.3.6 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 Conqueror 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 Should He who Himself imparted Aught withhold From the fold, Leave us broken-hearted? Should the Son of God not love us, Who, to cheer Suff'rers here, Left His throne above us? 5 If our blessed Lord and Maker Hated men, Would He then Be of flesh partaker? If He in our woe delighted, Would He bear All the care Of our race benighted? 6 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, Meet for glory renders. 7 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." 8 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. 9 Ye whose anguish knew no measure, Weep no more; See the door To celestial pleasure. Cling to Him, for He will guide you Where no cross, Pain, or loss Can again betide you. 10 Hither come, ye heavy-hearted, Who for sin, Deep within, Long and sore have smarted. For the poisoned wounds you're feeling Help is near, One is here Mighty for their healing. 11 Hither come, ye poor and wretched; Know His will Is to fill Every hand outstretched. Here are riches without measure; Here forget All regret, Fill your hearts with treasure. 12 Let me in my arms receive Thee; On Thy breast Let me rest, Savior, ne'er to leave Thee. Since Thou hast Thyself presented Now to me, I shall be Evermore contented. 13 Guilt no longer can distress me; Son of God, Thou my load Bearest to release me. Stain in me Thou findest never; I am clean, All my sin Is removed forever. 14 I am pure, in Thee believing, From Thy store Evermore Righteous robes receiving. In my heart I will enfold Thee, Treasure rare, Let me there, Loving, ever hold Thee. 15 Dearest Lord, Thee will I cherish. Though my breath Fail in death, Yet I shall not perish, But with Thee abide forever There on high, In that joy Which can vanish never. Amen.
