Oh, Seek The Lord Today!
Author: H. A. Brorson Meter: 6.7.6.7.6.6.6.6 Appears in 7 hymnals Hymnal Title: Hymnal for Church and Home Lyrics: 1 Oh, seek the Lord today!
Today He hath salvation.
Approach Him while He may
Still hear thy supplication.
Repent and seek His grace,
His call to thee doth sound;
Oh, turn to Him thy face
While yet He may be found.
2 Behold the sun of grace
So brightly on thee shineth;
Oh, take with Christ thy place
While He to thee inclineth.
Perchance His summons may
Ere long be sent to thee;
Oh, turn to Him today,
Let Him thy solace be.
3 There is salvation still
For hearts contritely crying
To Him whose gracious will
Is now to save the dying.
His grace doth beckon thee
To seek thy Savior blest;
Oh, hasten, swiftly flee
Unto His blessed rest.

The child sweet comfort gaineth,
So, shielding thee from harm,
The Lord thy heart sustaineth,
Oh, seek that sweet repose,
Come unto Him and stay;
Thy Savior now is close,
Oh, come to Him today. Topics: Call and Repentance Used With Tune: [Oh, seek the Lord today]

Friedrich Layritz
1808 - 1859 Person Name: F. Layritz Hymnal Title: American Lutheran Hymnal Mod. by of "GRATITUDE" in American Lutheran Hymnal Friedrich (also: Fridrich) Christoph Ludwig Eduard Layriz (also: Layritz, Lairitz, * January 30 1808 in Nemmersdorf, today part of Goldkronach, † March 18 1859 in Unterschwaningen ) was a German Lutheran pastor and Hymnologist.
Friedrich Layriz came from a Franconian family, went to school in Bayreuth and studied Protestant theology at the universities of Leipzig and Erlangen. In Erlangen, he was influenced by the Erlanger theology to Christian Krafft and Georg Karl von Raumer. He was pastor from 1837 to 1842 he provided the second Parochial ministry in the St. St. John's Church in Hirschlach, then from 1842 as pin preacher in St. Georgen (Bayreuth). In 1846 he was named after a literary quarrel with the priest Elias Sittig to the future Bavarian Hymns transferred to Unterschwaningen.
Layriz' importance lies in the collection and rediscovery of Lutheran chorales from the time before the Enlightenment theology, which were widely heavily revised or completely forgotten, and their original polyrhythmic melodies. In 1844 he published the programmatic core of the German hymn of Luther to Gellert with 450 hymns, the major influence on the song book design in Bavaria (1854), Germany and should have in the German-speaking Lutherans in North America. The collection and subsequently by Layriz published chorale books were certainly not historical-critical editions, but for practical use. Therefore, there are also additions and alterations by Layriz therein, such as the until now sung in Protestant churches verses 3 and 4 of "Es ist ein Ros sprung" (EC 30).
In the area of liturgy Layriz worked. He conducted research on the service in the Age of Reformation and was responsible for the musical aspect of the liturgy of Wilhelm Lohe.
