God in Christ on us bestows;
Jesus bought our peace with God

in our welcomes and farewells;
and through God's baptismal pow'r
peace surrounds our dying hour.
Peace be with you, full and free,
now and through eternity. Topics: Comfort, Rest; Hope, Assurance; Easter; Comfort, Rest; Easter; Hope, Assurance; Lament; Sending; Welcome Used With Tune: FRED TIL BOD

Hallelujah! Jesus Lives!
Author: Carl B. Garve; Jane L. Borthwick Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Appears in 13 hymnals First Line: Hallelujah! Jesus lives Lyrics: 1. Hallelujah! Jesus lives!
He is now the Living One;
From the gloomy halls of death
Christ, the conqueror, has gone,
Bright forerunner to the skies
Of His people, yet to rise.
2. Jesus lives! Why do you weep?
Why that sad and mournful sigh?
He who died our Brother here
Lives our Brother still on high.
Lives forever to bestow
Blessings on His church below.
3. Jesus lives! And thus, my soul,
Life eternal waits for you;
Joined to Him, your living head,
Where He is, you shall be, too;
With the Lord, at His right hand,
As a victor you shall stand.
4. Jesus lives! Let all rejoice.
Praise Him, ransomed of the earth.
Praise Him in a nobler song,
Cherubim of heavenly birth.
Praise the victor King, whose sway
Sin and death and hell obey.
5. Jesus lives! To Him my heart
Draws with ever new delight.
Earthly vanities, depart,
Hinder not my heavenward flight.
Let this spirit ever rise
To its Magnet in the skies.
6. Hallelujah! Angels, sing!
Join with us in hymns of praise.
Let your chorus swell the strain
Which our feebler voices raise;
Glory to our God above
And on earth His peace and love! Used With Tune: FRED TIL BOD Text Sources: Hymns from the Land of Luther, fourth series, 1862

Lifts her holy hands above,
Offering up on every shore
Her pure sacrifice of love:

Herre, hvor skal vi gaa hen?
Author: Grundtvig Appears in 4 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Herre, hvor skal vi gaa hen?
Gaa fro dig, vor Sjaleven,
Fra den levende Guds Søn,
Fra vor Troes store Løn,
Fra den Eneste paa Jord,
I hvis Mund er Livets Ord.
2 Nei, om end det inder haardt,
Ei dit Ord os skræmmer bort;
Dybt vi føle, at paa Jord
Døden er det haarde Ord,
Men dit Ord er Liv og Aand,
Sprænger alle Dodens Baand.
3 Æd mit Kjød og drik mit Blod,
Siger Livets Fyrste god,
Paa mit Ord i Brød og Vin!
Da for dig for Døden min,
Da, opreist af forten Jord,
Jeg for dig til Himmels for.
4 Hør det Hjerte, hvor du slaar
I mit Bryst med bange Kaar!
Tro vor Herre paa hans Ord,
Nyd ham ved hans Naadebord!
Æd hans Kjød og drik hans Blod,
Og staa op, som han opstod!
5 Ja, tag Sandheds Ord i Pant,
Hans, som Døden overvandt,
Da i Aanden alt du har
Syn paa Herlighede klar,
Smoger, hvad end brydes ned,
Aldrig Dødens Bitterhed.
6 Evig da i Glæde stor
Leve skal vi med Guds Ord,
Som, naar Verden brat forgaar,
Salig, seierrig bestaar,
Deler mildt sin Guddoms Glans
Med alt Jordisk, som er hans. Topics: Skjærtorsdag Til Høimesse; Maundy Thursday High Mass; Skjertorsdag Til Hoimesse; Maundy Thursday High Mass; Anden Pintsedag Til Hoimesse; Second Pentecost Day High Mass Used With Tune: [Herre, hvor skal vi gaa hen?]

Father, who the light this day
Appears in 16 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Father, who the light this day
Out of darkness didst create,
Shine upon us now, we pray,
While within Thy courts we wait.
Wean us from the works of night,
Make us children of the light.

From the bondage of the tomb,
Bid our slumbering souls awake,
And dispel their doubt and gloom;
Let us, from our bonds set free,
Rise from sin and live to Thee.

Sent this day from Christ on high,
Lord, on us Thy gifts confer,
Cleanse, illumine, sanctify;
All Thine influence shed abroad;
Lead us to the truth of God. Topics: Worship Opening; Doubt and Fear; Light., prayed for Used With Tune: PEACE IN CHRIST
Father, who the light this day
As with gladness men of old
Appears in 638 hymnals Lyrics: 1 As with gladness men of old
Did the guiding star behold;
As with joy they hailed its light,
Leading onward, beaming bright:
So, most gracious God, may we
Evermore be led to Thee.
2 As with joyful steps they sped
To that lowly manger-bed,
There to bend the knee before
Him whom heaven and earth adore:
So may we with willing feet
Ever seek Thy mercy-seat.
3 As they offered gifts most rare
At that manger rude and bare,
So may we, with holy joy,
Pure and free from sin's alloy,
All our dearest treasures bring,
Christ, to Thee our heavenly King.
4 Holy Jesus! every day
Keep us in the narrow way;
And, when earthly things are past,
Bring our ransomed souls at last
Where they need no star to guide,
Where no clouds Thy glory hide. Topics: TheChurch Year Epiphany; Guidance, prayed for; Christian Joy; Mercy-seat Used With Tune: PEACE IN CHRIST

What our Father does is well
Author: B. Schmolk Appears in 56 hymnals Lyrics: 1 What our Father does is well:
Blessed truth! His children tell!
Though He send, for plenty, want,
Though the harvest store be scant,
Yet we rest upon His love,
Seeking better things above.
2 What our Father does is well:
Shall the willful heart rebel,
If a blessing He withhold
In the field, or in the fold?
Is He not Himself to be
All our store eternally?
3 What our Father does is well:
Though He sadden hill and dell,
Upward yet our praises rise
For the strength His word supplies,
He has called us sons of God;
Can we murmur at His rod?
4 What our Father does is well:
May the thought within us dwell;
Though nor milk nor honey flow
In our barren Canaan now,
God can save us in our need,
God can bless us, God can feed.
5 Therefore unto Him we raise
Hymns of glory, songs of praise;
To the Father and the Son,
And the Spirit, Three in One,
Honor, might, and glory be,
Now and through eternity. Topics: Various Occasions Thanksgiving Day; Various Occassions Thanksgiving Day; Submission Used With Tune: [What our Father does is well]

Praise to God, immortal praise
Appears in 602 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Praise to God, immortal praise,

Bounteous Source of every joy,
Let Thy praise our tongues employ.

Source whence all our blessings flow.

For the stores the gardens yield,
Flocks that whiten all the plain,
Yellow sheaves of ripened grain:
Lord, for these our souls shall raise
Grateful vows and solemn praise.

Private bliss, and public wealth,
Knowledge, with its gladdening streams,
Pure religion's holier beams;
Lord, for these our souls shall raise
Grateful vows and solemn praise.

May we give Thee of our best,
And by deeds of kindly love
For Thy mercies grateful prove;
Singing thus through all our days
