Author: Sarah Flower Adams; Erhardt Friedrich Wunderlich Hymnal: Voices Together #658 (2020) Meter: 6.4.6.4.6.6.4 Scripture: Luke 9:23 Lyrics: 1 Nearer, my God, to thee, nearer to thee! E’en though it be a cross that raiseth me; still all my song shall be, nearer, my God, to thee, nearer, my God, to thee, nearer to thee! 2 Though like the wanderer, the sun gone down, darkness be over me, my rest a stone; yet in my dreams I’d be nearer, my God, to thee, nearer, my God, to thee, nearer to thee! 3 There let the way appear steps unto heav’n; all that thou sendest me in mercy giv’n; angels to beckon me nearer, my God, to thee, nearer, my God, to thee, nearer to thee! 4 Then, with my waking thoughts bright with thy praise, out of my stony griefs, Bethel I’ll raise; so by my woes to be nearer, my God, to thee, nearer, my God, to thee, nearer to thee! 5 Or if on joyful wing, cleaving the sky, sun, moon, and stars forgot, upward I fly, still all my song shall be, nearer, my God, to thee, nearer, my God, to thee, nearer to thee! 1 Näher, mein Gott, zu dir, näher zu dir! Drückt mich auch Kummer hier, drohet man mir, soll doch trotz Kreuz und Pein, dies meine Losung sein: Näher, mein Gott, zu dir! Näher zu dir! 2 Bricht mir, wie Jakob dort, Nacht auch herein, find ich zum Ruheort nur einen Stein, ist auch im Traume hier mein Sehnen für und für: … 3 Geht auch die schmale Bahn aufwärts gar steil, führt sie doch himmelan zu unserm Heil. Engel, so licht und schön, winken aus selgen Höhn. … 4 Ist dann die Nacht vorbei, leuchtet die Sonn, weih ich mich dir aufs Neu vor deinem Thron, baue mein Bethel dir und jauchz mit Freuden hier: … 5 Ist mir auch ganz verhüllt dein Weg allhier, wird nur mein Wunsch erfüllt: näher zu dir!

"The wondrous Cross"

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Laudes Domini #206 (1888) Scripture: Luke 9:23 First Line: When I survey the wondrous cross Lyrics: 1 When I survey the wondrous cross, On which the Prince of glory died, My richest gain I count but loss, And pour contempt on all my pride. 2 Forbid it, Lord! that I should boast, Save in the death of Christ, my God; All the vain things that charm me most I sacrifice them to his blood. 3 See, from his head, his hands, his feet, Sorrow and love flow mingled down; Did e'er such love and sorrow meet, Or thorns compose so rich a crown? 4 His dying crimson, like a robe, Spreads o'er his body on the tree; Then I am dead to all the globe, And all the globe is dead to me. 5 Were the whole realm of nature mine, That were a present far too small; Love so amazing, so divine, Demands my soul, my life, my all.

Let all His faithful serve Him Against unnumbered foes; Let courage rise with danger And strength to strength oppose. 3 Stand up, stand up for Jesus; Stand in His strength alone. The arm of flesh will fail you, Ye dare not trust your own. Put on the Gospel armor; Each piece put on with prayer. Where duty calls or danger, Be never wanting there. 4 Stand up, stand up for Jesus; The strife will not be long; This day the din of battle, The next the victor's song. The soldiers, overcoming, Their crown of life shall see And with the King of Glory Shall reign eternally. Topics: The Church Militant; Mission and Witness Languages: English Tune Title: WEBB
