EINS IST NOT
One Thing Only, Lord, Is Needful
Author: H. Brueckner; J. H. Schroeder Meter: 8.7.8.7.12.12.11.11 Appears in 1 hymnal Hymnal Title: American Lutheran Hymnal Lyrics: 1 One thing only, Lord, is needful;
Teach Thou me but this to know.
All things else, tho' fair appearing,
Prove a heavy yoke of woe.
Beneath it the heart, with its pining and fretting,
Finds naught of true pleasure, new failures regretting.
But one thing is needful, that must I possess;
This one thing for all things assures me redress.
2 O how Mary's heart was longing
For contentment pure and sweet
When, aglow with true devotion,
She reclined at Jesus' feet!
Her soul, to the Master in ecstasy turning,
No longer in vain for salvation was yearning;
Her being was wholly to Jesus inclined,
Thus finding the one thing for which she had pined.
3 Even so would I in rapture,
Dearest Jesus, cling to Thee;
Grant that I, to Thee united,
May Thy faithful member be.
Tho' many return to the world and its pleasure,
In love Thy communion I ever shall treasure.
Thy Word is both spirit and life to me, Lord.
Nor is there a blessing Thou dost not afford.
4 Naught have I to win God's favor,
Naught but Thee, my highest Good;
Thou my rescue hast effected
By the shedding of Thy blood.
True righteousness, Jesus, the fruit of Thy merit,
My soul, if it trust but in Thee, doth inherit;
The robes of salvation most surely are mine,
And in them my faith will for evermore shine.
5 Therefore, O my faithful Master,
Thou my One and All shalt be;
Prove my heat's intent most closely,
From dissembling purge Thou me.
Lest I with the wicked my lot should be casting,
Lead Thou me, O Lord, in the way everlasting.
This one thing is needful, all others are vain;
I count them as loss, that I Jesus may gain. Topics: The Christian Life Consecration Used With Tune: ONE THING NEEDFUL

In 1876 he entered the Presbyterian ministry as Pastor at Auburn, New York. In 1878 he removed to Ithaca, N. Y.; in 1883 to Holyoke, Massachusetts, and in 1885 to Chicago, Illinois. He received his degree of D.D. from Hamilton College in 1889. He has edited Christian Chorals, 1885 ; New Alleluia, 1880-86; and Church Song, 1889. He was also joint editor with H. P. Main of The Church Praise Book, 1882. He has also published Hymns and Verses, 1883, and Song of Miriam, and Other Hymns and Verses,

In addition to these original hymns Dr. Stryker has several translations from the German which are in common use. One of his hymns, No. 513, "Now I lay me down to sleep" (Child's Evening hymn), in Church Song, 1889 (dated 1884), begins with a stanza by another hand. In the same work there are also several of his tunes. Dr. Stryker's hymns are massive and rugged, full of dogmatism and fire, but they lack unity and purity of rhythm. In some instances words stand for thoughts, and exclamations for ideas. Nevertheless a few will live.

Small Church Music
Editors: Johann Heinrich Schro Description:
The SmallChurchMusic site was launched in 2006, growing out of the requests from those struggling
to provide suitable music for their services and meetings. Rev. Clyde McLennan was ordained in mid
1960’s and was a pastor in many small Australian country areas, and therefore was acutely aware of
this music problem. Having also been trained as a Pipe Organist, recordings on site (which are a subset
of the smallchurchmusic.com site) are all actually played by Clyde, and also include piano and piano
with organ versions. All recordings are in MP3 format.
Churches all around the world use the recordings, with downloads averaging over 60,000 per
month.
The recordings normally have an introduction, several verses and a slowdown on the last verse.
Users are encouraged to use software: Audacity (http://www.audacityteam.org) or Song Surgeon (http://songsurgeon.com) (see http://scm-audacity.weebly.com for more information) to adjust the MP3 number of verses, tempo
and pitch to suit their local needs.
