The Day Is Surely Drawing Near
Author: B. Ringwaldt, 1532-99; P. A. Peter, 1832-1919 Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.8.7 Appears in 34 hymnals Hymnal Title: Evangelical Lutheran Hymnary Lyrics: 1 The day is surely drawing near
When God's Son, the Anointed,
Shall with great majesty appear
As Judge of all appointed.
All mirth and laughter then shall cease
When flames on flames will still increase,
As Scripture truly teacheth.
2 A trumpet loud shall then resound
And all the earth be shaken.
Then all who in their graves are found
Shall from their sleep awaken;
But all that live shall in that hour
By the Almighty's boundless pow'r
Be changed at His commanding.
3 A book is opened then to all,
A record truly telling
What each hath done, both great and small,
When he on earth was dwelling;
And ev'ry heart be clearly seen,
And all be known as they have been
In thoughts and words and actions.
4 Then woe to those who scorned the Lord
And sought but carnal pleasures,
Who here despised His precious Word
And loved their earthly treasures!
With shame and trembling they will stand
And at the Judge's stern command
To Satan be delivered.
5 O Jesus, who my debt didst pay
And for my sin wast smitten;
Within the Book of Life, O may
My name be also written!
I will not doubt; I trust in Thee,
From Satan Thou hast made me free
And from all condemnation.
6 Therefore my Intercessor be
And for Thy blood and merit
Declare my name from judgment free
With all who life inherit,
That I may see Thee face to face
With all Thy saints in that blest place
Which Thou for us hast purchased.
7 O Jesus Christ, do not delay,
But hasten our salvation;
We often tremble on our way
In fear and tribulation.
Then hear us when we cry to Thee;
Come, mighty Judge, and make us free
From ev'ry evil! Amen.

The Day Is Surely Drawing Near
Author: Bartholomaeus Ringwalt Hymnal: American Lutheran Hymnal #321 (1930) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.8.7 Hymnal Title: American Lutheran Hymnal Lyrics: 1 The day is surely drawing near
When Christ, the Lord's Anointed,
In might and glory shall appear,
As Judge of all appointed.
The time of mirth shall then expire,
When all shall be consumed by fire,
As Holy Scripture tells us.
2 The trump of God shall then resound,
And all the earth be shaken;
The dead who in thegraves are found
Shall then to life awaken,
And all who faithful here abide
Shall be transformed and glorified
By Christ's almighty working.
3 The Judge shall then a scroll unfold,
His records truly telling
What all have done, both young and old,
While in the body dwelling.
All secrets then shall be disclosed
And ev'ry hidden thought exposed
That was conceived in darkness.
4 Then woe to all who scorned the Lord
And sought but carnal pleasures,
Who loathed to hear His holy Word,
Enthralled by earthly treasures.
They shall not in the judgment stand,
But at the righteous King's command
With Satan have their portion.
5 Lord Jesus, Victor in the strife,
For my transgressions smitten,
O grant that in the book of life
My name be also written.
Nor will I doubt that I am free
From Satan's rule, O Lord, thro' Thee,
The Source of our salvation. Topics: The Christian Life Judgment Languages: English Tune Title: MONMOUTH

Will with great majesty appear,
As Judge of all appointed.
All mirth and laughter then shall cease,
When flames on flames will still increase,
As the Apostle teacheth.
2 A trumpet loud will then resound,
And the whole earth be shaken;
Then all who in their graves are found
Shall from their sleep awaken;
But all that live will in that hour,
By the Almighty's boundless power,
Be changed at His commanding.

4 Then woe to those who scorned the Lord,
And sought but carnal pleasures,
Who here despised His precious Word,
And loved their earthly treasures;
With shame and trembling they will stand,
And at the Judge's stern command
Must leave the Lord forever.
5 O may my name, dear Lord, be found,
Free from all condemnation,
For Thy death's sake, Thy pains and wounds,
In Thy book of salvation.
I will not doubt--I trust in Thee--
From Satan Thou hast made me free,
And from all condemnation.
6 Therefore my intercessor be,
And for Thy death and merit
Declare my name from judgment free,
With all who life inherit,
That I may see Thee face to face,
With all Thy saints, in that blest place,
Which Thou for us hast purchased.

O hasten our salvation!
We often tremble on our way
In fear and tribulation.

From every evil. Amen! Topics: Christ Intercession of; The Judgment; Eternal Punishment Languages: English Tune Title: LINDEMAN

Nicolaus Decius
1485 - 1541 Person Name: Nicolaus Decius, ca. 1485-1541 Hymnal Title: Ambassador Hymnal Attributed of "ALLEIN GOTT IN DER HÖH" in Ambassador Hymnal Decius, Nicolaus (Nicolaus a Curia or von Hofe, otherwise Hovesch, seems to have been a native of Hof, in Upper Franconia, Bavaria, and to have been originally called Tech. He became a monk, and was in 1519 Probst of the cloister at Steterburg, near Wolfenbüttel. Becoming favourable to the opinions of Luther, he left Steterburg in July, 1522, and went to Brunswick, where he was appointed a master in the St. Katherine and Egidien School. In 1523 he was invited by the burgesses of Stettin to labour there as an Evangelical preacher along with Paulus von Rhode. He became preacher at the Church of St. Nicholas; was probably instituted by the Town Council in 1526, when von Rhode was instituted to St. Jacob's; and at the visitation in 1535 was recognized as pastor of St. Nicholas'. He died suddenly at Stettin, March 21, 1541, with some suspicion of being poisoned by his enemies of the Roman Catholic faction (Koch, i. 419-421, 471, 472; ii. 483; Allg. Deutsche Biography, iii. 791-793).He seems to have been a popular preacher and a good musician. Three hymns are ascribed to him. These are versions of the “Sanctus," the "Gloria in excelsis," and the "Agnus Dei." The second and third are noted under these Latin first lines. He is also said to have composed or adapted the melodies set to them. [Rev. James Mearns, M.A.]
