Salvation now to us has come

Author: Paul Speratus, 1484-1551; Carl Döving, 1867-1936 Hymnal: Together in Song #195 (1999) Meter: 8.7.87.8.8.7 Lyrics: 1 Salvation now to us has come by God’s free grace and favour; good works cannot avert our doom, they help and save us never. In faith we look to Christ alone, who did for all the world atone; he is our one redeemer. 2 The law of God fulfilled must be, or we were lost for ever; therefore God sent his Son that he might us from death deliver. For us the law he has fulfilled, the Father's anger he has stilled; God's curse is gone for ever. 3 Since Christ has full atonement made and brought us to salvation, each Christian therefore may be glad, and build on this foundation: your grace alone, dear Lord, we plead, your death is now our life indeed, for you have paid our ransom. 4 To you, O Lord, in faith we cling, we love and trust you truly, and from this faith good works will spring that serve our neighbour duly. It's faith alone that justified; the works that from such faith arise reveal that it is living. 5 All blessing, honour, thanks and praise to Father, Son, and Spirit, to God who saved us by his grace; all glory to his merit! O Triune God, in heaven above, you have revealed your saving love; your blessèd name we hallow.

Salvation Unto Us Is Come

Author: P. Speratus, 1484-1551 Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymnary #227 (1996) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.8.7 Lyrics: 1 Salvation unto us has come By God's free grace and favor. Good works cannot avert our doom; They help and save us never. Faith looks to Jesus Christ alone, Who did for all the world atone; He is our one Redeemer. 2 What God did in His Law demand No man to Him could render. Before this Judge all guilty stand; His law speaks curse in thunder. The law demands a perfect heart; We were defiled in ev'ry part, And lost was our condition. 3 False dreams deluded minds did fill, As if to Himn we could at will Earns grace and enter heaven. The law is but a mirror bright To bring the inbred sin to light That lurks within our nature. 4 From sin our flesh could not abstain, Sin held its sway unceasing; The task was useless and in vain, Our guilt was e'er increasing. None can remove sin's poisoned dart Or purify our guileful heart, So deep is our corruption. 5 Still all the law fulfilled must be, Else we were lost forever, The God His Son sent down that He Might us from doom deliver; He all the lawy for us fulfilled And thus His Father's anger stilled Which over us impended. 6 As Christ hath full atonement made And brought to us salvation, So may each Christian now be glad And build on this foundation; Thy grace alone, dear Lord, I plead, Thy death is now my life indeed, For Thou hast paid my ransom. 7 Not doubting this, I trust in Thee, Thy Word cannot be broken, thou all dost call, "Come unto Me!" No falsehood hast Thou spoken; "He who believes and is baptized, He shall be saved," say'st Thou, O Christ, And he shall never perish. 8 The just is he--and he alone-- Who by this faith is living, The faith that by good works is shown, To God the glory giving; Faith gives thee peace with God above, But thou thy neighbor, too, must love, If thou art new created. 9 The law reveals the guilt of sin, And makes men conscience-stricken; The Gospel then doth enter in The sin-sick soul to quicken. Come to the cross, look up and live; The law no peace to thee doth give, Nor can its deeds bring comfort. 10 Faith to the cross of Christ doth cling And rests in Him securely; And forth from it good works must spring As fruits and tokens surely; Still faith doth justify alone, Works serve thy neighbor and make known The faith that lives within thee. 11 Hope waits for the accepted hour Till God give joy for mourning; When He displays His healing pow'r, Thy sighs to songs are turning. Thy needs are known unto thy Lord, And He is faithful to His Word, This is our hope's foundation. 12 Though it may seem He hears thee not, Count not thyself forsaken; Thy wants are ne'er by Him forgot, Let this thy hope awaken; His word is sure, here is thy stay, Though doubts may plague thee on thy way, Let not thy faith be shaken. 13 All blessing, honor, thanks, and praise To Father, Son, and Spirit, The God who saved us by His grace, All glory to His merit. O Father in the heav'ns above, The work begun performs Thy love, Thy worthy name be hallowed. 14 Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done In earth, as 'tis in heaven. Keep us in life, by grace led on. Forgiving and forgiven; Save Thou us in temptation's hour, And from all ills; Thine is the pow'r, And all the glory, Amen!

Salvation unto Us Has Come

Author: Paul Speratus, 1484-1551 Hymnal: Lutheran Book of Worship #297 (1978) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.8.7 Lyrics: 1 Salvation unto us has come By God's free grace and favor; Good works cannot avert our doom, They help and save us never. Faith looks to Jesus Christ alone, Who did for all the world atone; He is our mediator. 2 Theirs was a false, misleading dream Who thought God's law was given That sinners might themselves redeem And by their works gain heaven. The Law is but a mirror bright To bring the inbred sin to light That lurks within our nature. 3 And yet the Law fulfilled must be, Or we were lost forever; Therefore God sent his Son that he Might us from death deliver. He all the Law for us fulfilled, And thus his Father's anger stilled Which over us impended. 4 Faith clings to Jesus' cross alone And rests in him unceasing; And by its fruits true faith is known, With love and hope increasing. For faith alone can justify; Works serve our neighbor and supply The proof that faith is living. 5 All blessing, honor, thanks, and praise To Father, Son, and Spirit, The God who saved us by his grace, All glory to his merit. O triune God in heav'n above, You have revealed your saving love; Your blessed name we hallow.

Salvation unto us has come

Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymn-book #314 (1918) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.8.7 Lyrics: 1 Salvation unto us has come By God's free grace and favor, Good works cannot avert our doom, They help and save us never: Faith looks to Jesus Christ alone, Who did for all the world atone; He is the Mediator. 2 What God doth in His Law demand No man to Him can render, And so He draws His flaming brand To punish the offender: Our flesh has not those pure desires Which first of all the Law requires, So we're in condemnation. 3 It was a false, misleading dream That God His Law had given For us to keep and merit claim-- And earn our way to heaven: God's Law is but a mirror bright To bring the inbred sin to sight That lurks within our nature. 4 By our own strength to put aside God's wrath, and win His blessing, Is useless task, by many tried, Is only guilt increasing: For God hypocrisy abhors; Flesh with the spirit ever wars, For 'tis by nature evil. 5 And yet, the Law fulfilled must be Or we were lost forever; Therefore God sent His Son, that He Might us from death deliver; He all the Law for us fulfilled, And thus His Father's anger stilled Which over us impended. 6 Since Christ hath full atonement made And brought to us salvation, Each Christian therefore may be glad And build on this foundation: Thy grace alone, dear Lord, I plead, Thy death my life now is indeed, For Thou hast paid my ransom. 7 Not doubting this, I trust in Thee, Thy Word cannot be broken; Thou all dost call, "Come unto me!" No falsehood hast Thou spoken: "He that believes and is baptized, He shall be saved," say'st Thou, O Christ, "And he shall never perish." 8 He's just 'fore God, and he alone, Who by this faith is living; This faith will by good works be known, To God the glory giving; Faith gives thee peace with God above, But thou thy neighbor too wilt love, If thou art a new creature. 9 The Law reveals the guilt of sin And makes man conscience-stricken; The gospel then doth enter in The sinful soul to quicken. Come to the Cross, trust Christ and live; The Law to you no peace can give With all its good endeavors. 10 From faith in Christ, whene'er 'tis right, Good works are surely flowing; The faith is dead that shuns the light, No good works ever showing: By faith alone the just shall live, Good works alone the proof can give Of love, which true faith worketh.
