To mourn our sin, and from it turn
In faith to Thee and to Thy Son
And Holy Spirit, Three in One.

For needed help from day to day
That as Thy children we may live,
Whom Thou in baptism did receive.
4. Lord, when we fall and sin doth stain,
Absolve and lift us up again;
And thro’ the sacrament increase
Our faith till we depart in peace. Used With Tune: HERR JESU CHRIST, MEIN'S

Lord Jesus Christ, my life, my light
Author: M. Behm Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 34 hymnals Matching Instances: 3 Lyrics: 1 Lord Jesus Christ, my life, my light,
My strength by day, my trust by night,
On earth I’m but a passing guest,
And sorely with my sins oppressed.
2 Far off I see my fatherland,
Where through Thy grace I hope to stand.
But ere I reach that paradise,
A weary way before me lies.
3 My heart sinks at the journey’s length,
My wasted flesh has little strength,
Only my soul still cries in me,
Lord, fetch me home, take me to Thee!
4 O let Thy sufferings give me power
To meet the last and darkest hour;
Thy cross the staff whereon I lean,
My couch the grave where thou hast been.
5 Since Thou hast died, the pure, the just,
I take my homeward way in trust,
The gates of heaven, Lord, open wide,
When here I may no more abide.
6 And when the last great day is come,
And Thou, our Judge, shalt speak the doom,
Let me with joy behold the light,
And set me then upon Thy right.
7 Renew this wasted flesh of mine,
That like the sun it there may shine,
Among the angels pure and bright,
Yea, like Thyself in glorious light.
8 Ah, then I’ll have my heart’s desire,
When singing with the angels’ choir,
Among the ransomed of Thy grace,
For ever I behold Thy face! Topics: The Last Things Preparation for Death; The Last Things Preparation for Death Used With Tune: [Lord Jesus Christ, my life, my light]

We Bid Thee Welcome in the Name
Author: James Montgomery Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 135 hymnals Matching Instances: 3 Lyrics: 1 We bid thee welcome in the name
Of Jesus, our exalted Head.
Come as a servant,- so He came,
And we receive thee in His stead.
2 Come as a shepherd; guard and keep
This fold from hell and world and sin;
Nourish the lambs and feed the sheep;
The wounded heal, the lost bring in.
3 Come as a teacher sent from God,
Charged His whole counsel to declare.
Lift o’er our ranks the prophet’s rod
While we uphold thy hands with prayer.
4 Come as a messenger of peace,
Filled with the Spirit, fired with love.
Live to behold our large increase
And die to meet us all above.
Amen. Topics: The Church Ministry Scripture: 1 Corinthians 4:1-2 Used With Tune: HERR JESU CHRIST, MEIN'S
