Once in the Blest Baptismal Waters
Author: Emilie Juliane von Schwarzburg-Rudolstadt, 1637-1706 Hymnal: Christian Worship #678 (2021) Meter: 9.8.9.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Once in the blest baptismal waters
I put on Christ and made him mine;
now, numbered with God's sons and daughters,
I share his peace and love divine.
My God, for Jesus' sake I pray
your peace may bless my dying day.
2 His body and his blood I've taken
in his blest supper, feast divine;
now I shall never be forsaken
for I am his and he is mine.
My God, for Jesus' sake I pray
your peace may bless my dying day.
3 Though death may come today, tomorrow,
I know in Christ I perish not;
he grants the peace that stills all sorrow,
gives me a robe without a spot.
My God, for Jesus' sake I pray
your peace may bless my dying day.
4 And thus I live in God contented
and die without a thought of fear;
to God's good plans I have consented,
my faith is focused, firm, and clear.
By grace, in Jesus' name I say,
"Lord, you will bless my dying day!" Topics: Baptismal Life Scripture: Isaiah 57:1-2 Languages: English Tune Title: WER WEISS, WIE NAHE

When Sinners See Their Lost Condition
Author: Magnus B. Landstad; Oluf H. Smeby Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #7680 Meter: 9.8.9.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1. When sinners see their lost condition
And feel the pressing load of sin,
And Jesus cometh on His mission
To heal the sin-sick heart within,
All grief must flee before His grace,
And joy divine will take its place.
2. When Jesus enters meek and lowly
To fill the home with sweetest peace;
When hearts have felt His blessing holy
And found from sin complete release,
Then light and calm within shall reign
And hearts divided love again.
3. When Jesus enters land and nation
And moves the people with His love;
When, yielding to His kind persuasion,
Our hearts His truth and blessing prove,
Then shall our life on earth be blest,
The peace of God on us shall rest.
4. When Jesus comes—O blessèd story!—
He works a change in heart and life;
God’s kingdom comes with pow’r and glory
To young and old, to man and wife;
Thro’ sacrament and living Word,
Faith, love, and hope are now conferred.
5. Then stilled are cries and lamentation,
Then loosed is Satan’s every band;
In death is hope and consolation,
The soul is safe in Jesus’ hand.
When we shall walk through death’s dark vale,
His rod and staff shall never fail.
6. Oh, may He soon to every nation
Find entrance where He is unknown,
With life and light and full salvation,
That heathendom may be o’erthrown
And healing to the hearts may come
In heathen land and Christian home! Languages: English Tune Title: WER WEISS, WIE NAHE

Give Me, O Lord, A Spirit Lowly
Author: M. Loy Hymnal: American Lutheran Hymnal #257 (1930) Meter: 9.8.9.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Give me, O Lord, a spirit lowly,
That seeks to praise Thy name alone;
Let faith make all my conduct holy
And love in all my life be shown;
Tame Thou whate'er in me is wild
And own me always as Thy child.
2 Let me not aim beyond my measure,
But in my place be still content;
To do Thy will be all my pleasure,
For this let all my life be spent;
And if my duties lowly be,
Let this suffice,--they honor Thee!

O Lord, Thou Living Bread From Heaven
Author: H. Brueckner Hymnal: American Lutheran Hymnal #50 (1930) Meter: 9.8.9.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1. O Lord, Thou living Bread from heaven,
With hungry soul I come to Thee;
Thy flesh and blood, here freely given,
Are meat and drink indeed for me.
Lord Jesus, let this precious food
Redound to my eternal good.
2. May I at Thy communion table
Be welcomed as a worthy guest;
Do Thou by grace my soul enable
Devoutly, Lord, in Thee to rest.
Lord Jesus, let this precious food
Redound to my eternal good.
3. Unworthy as a sinful being,
I turn to Thee, my Shepherd true;
Thy straying lamb in danger seeing,
Thou wilt Thy love for me renew.
Lord Jesus, let this precious food
Redound to my eternal good.
4. As deadly poison help me banish
All wicked tho'ts that lurk within;
Bid ev'ry evil passion vanish,
And let me, Lord, be dead to sin.
Lord Jesus, let this precious food
Redound to my eternal good.
5 The curse of sin most deeply feeling,
I come to Thee for peace and rest;
To me Thy grace and mercy sealing,
O make me, Lord, Thy worthy guest.
Lord Jesus, let this precious food
Redound to my eternal good.
6 This Supper may in truth be rated
As Thy last will and testament;
It shows Thy love still unabated,
Though every day profusely spent.
Lord Jesus, let this precious food
Redound to my eternal good.
7 It is the best of all good treasure,
Of faith and hope the surest base,
The fount of purest joy and pleasure,
The pledge of God's unfathomed grace.
Lord Jesus, let this precious food
Redound to my eternal good.
8 This sacred feast brings wealth of rapture
To all who are contrite of heart,
And those whom Satan fain would capture
Are rescued when from life they part.
Lord Jesus, let this precious food
Redound to my eternal good.

Forever bide with me and mine,
And bring to those who sit in sadness
And gloom of death Thy light divine:
A voice comes from my soul within;
Thou blessed of the Lord, come in! Topics: The Church Year Fourth Sunday in Advent; The Church Year Fourth Sunday in Advent; Invitation Tune Title: [When sinners see their lost condition]

Who Knows How Soon My Days Are Ended
Author: H. Brueckner; Emilie Juliane, Countess of Schwartzburg-Rudolstadt Hymnal: American Lutheran Hymnal #301 (1930) Meter: 9.8.9.8.8.8 First Line: Who knows how soon my days are ended? Lyrics: 1 Who knows how soon my days are ended?
My days are few and time speeds on.
How swiftly, in this world of changes,
May death approach and life be gone.
O God, for Jesus' sake I pray
That I in peace may pass away.
2 So teach me, Lord, my days to number
That when the hour of death appears,
The wounds of Christ may be my refuge,
Nor may I spare repentant tears.
O God, for Jesus' sake I pray
That I in peace may pass away.
3 Help me to put my house in order,
That I may ever ready be
To leave this world and say in meekness:
Lord, as Thou wilt, deal Thou with me.
O God, for Jesus' sake I pray
That I in peace may pass away.
4 O Father, let my sins be covered
With Jesus' blood and righteousness;
By faith this spotless garment wearing,
I find relief from all distress.
O God, for Jesus' sake I pray
That I in peace may pass away.
5 From Jesus naught my soul can sever,
Nor life nor death can do me harm:
Him as my Lord and God confessing,
I shall with ease my foes disarm.
O God, for Jesus' sake I pray
That I in peace may pass away.

O would, my God, that I could praise Thee
Author: J. Mentzer Hymnal: The Lutheran Hymnary #443 (1913) Meter: 9.8.9.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 O would, my God, that I could praise Thee
With thousand tongues, by day and night!
How many a song my lips should raise Thee,
Who order'st all things here aright!
My thankful heart would ever be
Telling what God hath done for me.
2 O all ye powers that He implanted,
Arise, keep silence thus no more,
Put forth the strength that He hath granted,
Your noblest work is to adore;
O soul and body, make ye meet
With heartfelt praise your Lord to greet.
3 Ye forest leaves so green and tender,
That dance for joy in summer air;
Ye meadow-grasses bright and slender,
Ye flowers so wondrous sweet and fair;
Ye live to show His praise alone,
Help me to make His glory known.
4 O all things that have breath and motion;
That throng with life, earth, sea, and sky,
Now join me in my heart's devotion,
Help me to raise His praises high.
My utmost powers can ne'er aright
Declare the wonders of His might.
5 But I will tell, while I am living,
His goodness forth with every breath,
And greet each morning with thanksgiving,
Until my heart is still in death.
Nay, when at last my lips grow cold,
His praise shall in my sighs be told.
O Father, deign Thou, I beseech Thee,
To listen to my earthly lays;
A nobler strain in heaven shall reach Thee,
When I with angels hymn Thy praise,
And learn amid their choirs to sing
Loud Hallelujahs to my King. Topics: The Church Year Twelfth Sunday after Trinity; The Church Year Twelfth Sunday after Trinity; Praise and Prayer; Thanksgiving Tune Title: [O would, my God, that I could praise Thee]
