Author: Arthur C. Coxe; W. Gustave Polack Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 160 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Savior, sprinkle many nations, Fruitful let Thy sorrows be; By Thy pains and consolations Draw the Gentiles unto Thee! Of Thy Cross the wondrous story, Be it to the nations told; Let them see Thee in Thy glory And Thy mercy manifold. 2 Let to mortals all be given Thee to know and life to gain, Thee, the very God of heaven, Thee, the Man for sinners slain. Speak Thou hope to ev'ry mortal Thro' the Gospel, sweet and blest; Lead them thro' Thy kingdom's portal To eternal peace and rest. 3 Great the need in ev'ry nation, Dense the darkness of sin's night; Let Thy Spirit bring salvation, Love's pure flame, and wisdom's light. Give the Word, Thy preachers strengthen With the prophets' pow'r of old, Help them Zion's cords to lengthen, All Thy wand'ring sheep to fold. Amen.

Erstgeborner vieler Brüder, Du bist unser, wir sind Dein. 2 In noch wenig Augenblicken Werden wir Dich kommen sehn, Wird mit freudigem Entzücken Dir die Braut entgegen gehn.

In the Name which Earth and Heaven

Author: John Ellerton Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 17 hymnals Lyrics: 1 In the name which earth and heaven Ever worship, praise, and fear, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, Shall a house be builded here, Here with prayer its deep foundations, In the faith of Christ, did lay, Trusting by His help to crown it, With the top-stone in its day. 2 Here as in their due succession Stone on stone the men did place. Thus, we pray, unseen, but surely, Jesus, build us up in grace, Till, as in these walls completed, We complete in Thee are found And to Thee, the one Foundation, Strong and living stones, are bound. 3 Fair shall be Thine earthly temple: Here the careless passer-by Shall bethink him, in its beauty, Of the holier house on high. Weary hearts and troubled spirits Here shall find a still retreat; Sinful souls shall bring their burden Here to the Absolver's feet. 4 Yet with truer, nobler beauty, Lord, we pray, this house adorn, Where Thy Bride, Thy Church redeemèd, Robes her for her marriage morn; Clothed in garments of salvation, Rich with gems of heavenly grace, Spouse of Christ, arrayed and waiting Till she may behold His face. 5 Here in due and solemn order Shall her ceaseless prayer arise; Here shall strains of holy gladness Lift her heart above the skies; Here the Word of Life be spoken; Here the child of God be sealed; Here the Bread of Heaven be broken, "Till He come," Himself revealed. 6 Praise to Thee, O Master Builder, Maker of the earth and skies; Praise to Thee, in whom Thy temple Fitly framed together, lies; Praise to Thee, eternal Spirit, Binding all that lives in one Till our earthly praise be ended And th'eternal song begun! Amen. Topics: Special Occasions Corner-Stone Laying Scripture: 2 Chronicles 6:20 Used With Tune: O DU LIEBE
