Christ Has No Body Now but Yours
Dear Lamb! thy humbled State we sing
Appears in 4 hymnals Scripture: Acts 8:33 Lyrics: 1 Dear Lamb! thy humbled State we sing,
Thy name, thy Wounds and Blood we praise;
We own thee, Infant God, our King,
And to thy Throne our Hearts we raise.
2 Dear holy Child, we sing the Birth
Of him conceiv'd in Holiness;
Where God our Maker took our Earth,
Our Curse and all our Helplessness.
3 Thy first Blood-shedding hath us seal'd,
In Peace and Covenant with God,
From fleshly Filth and Shame, now heal'd
By holy Circumcision-Blood.
4 Thou God of Love, yet growing Youth,
Subject to Creature-Parents Thou;
Thy humble Steps, eternal Truth,
Make us admire, and, wond'ring, bow.
5 Poor Man, despised Nazarene,
With sweating Brow thou earn'dst thy Bread;
Great God! thy Glories were unseen,
And from the Eyes of Mortals hid.
6 Humbled in Poverty and Pain,
Temptation sore, Contempt and Scorn,
That Curse of ours for to sustain,
Was the eternal Father born.
7 Empty'd of all, but tort'ring Smart;
His Honour and his Judgment lost:
Deep, unknown Sorrows fill'd his Heart,
His Soul with fierce Temptations tost.
8 By this, the everlasting Grace,
And Nature-Love of God appears;
By this we see the Father's Face,
Where lost are all our Sins and Fears.
Dear Lamb! thy humbled State we sing
In Water We Grow
Author: Brian Wren, 1936- Meter: 10.10.11.11 Appears in 4 hymnals Scripture: Acts 8:38 First Line: In water we grow, secure in the womb Lyrics: 1 In water we grow, secure in the womb,
and speechlessly know love's safety and room.
Baptizing and blessing, we publish for good
the freeing, caressing safekeeping of God.
2 In water we wash: the dirt of each day,
its trouble and rush are carried away.
In Christ recreated by love's cleansing art,
self will and self hatred dissolve and depart.
3 In water we dive, and cannot draw breath,
then surface alive, rebounding from death.
Our old self goes under, in Christ dead and drowned.
We rise, washed in wonder, by love clad and crowned.
4 In water we dwell, for by its deep flow
through bloodstream and cell, we live, think, and grow.
Praise God, love outflowing, whose well of new birth
baptizes our knowing, and waters the earth. Used With Tune: STANLEY BEACH

Is all the bliss, we know. Topics: Hymns, adapted to Particular Parts of Public Worship

Mach' Dir in unsern Herzen
Appears in 3 hymnals Scripture: Acts 8:4-17 Lyrics: Chor:
O heiliger Geist! sei heut und allezeit mit uns.
Gemeine:
1 Mach' Dir in unsern Herzen,
eig'ne und ewige Wohnung:
Tilg' alle Sünd' und Schmerzen,
geuß auf uns aus Deine Salbung.
2 O heiliger Geist!
erleucht' heut unser' Sinnen:
Gieb, was du uns heiß'st,
so mög'n wir Gut's beginnen.
3 O Du Liebhaber aller Frommen,
Du Tröster der Elenden:
Du wollest uns auch zu Hülf' kommen,
Dein'n Willen zu vollenden.
4 Du reinigst der Gläubigen Gemüth
von Irrthum, Sünden und Thorheit:
Mach' rein unser Herz durch Deine Güt',
und leit' uns in alle Wahrheit;
5 Auf daß von uns hie der wahre Heiland,
recht werde erkannt:
Den allein sehen die reinen
Herzen im wahren Glauben.
6 Die Propheten han durch Dein' Macht,
die Zukunft Christi längst verkündigt und an Tag gebracht.
Die Apostel hast Du gestärkt, daß sie durch ihre Predigt
offenbart haben Christi Werk.
7 Durch Dich ist das tröstlich' Evangelium
ausgebreit't, und erbaut das Christenthum:
Mit Wunder und Zeichenkräftig bewähret,
und schnell, als ein Platzregen gemehret.
8 Du bist der Heils-Bronn, das rein Wasser,
welches fleußt vom Gnaden-Thron:
Du erfrisch'st das Herz, erweichst es,
und schreibst drein Dein neu Gesetz.
9 Du sammlest allhie Christi Gemein,
von der Welt aus allen Zungen in Ein:
Du giebst ihnen Lieb' zu Christi Lehr',
schaffst auch, das sie leben zu Gottes Ehr'.
10 Darum bitten wir demüthiglich:
O erhör' uns heut heiliger Geist gnädiglich:
Denn ohn' Dich ist unser Thun umsonst,
und ohn' Deine Hülf' kommt niemand zu Gottes Gunst.
11 Du, durch den alle Heiligen sind bekehrt,
durch des Gaben sie auch sind gelehrt,
im Glauben gestärkt und des Heils gewährt:
Du stärk' uns auch im Glauben und Zuversicht,
und thu' Hülf', wenn der feind uns ansicht,
mach uns völlig vor Gottes Angesicht.
12 Und leit' uns zu der ewigen Klraheit.
Amen.
