I place myself in Jesus' hands
Author: C. J. P. Spitta Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.8.7 Appears in 4 hymnals Lyrics: 1 I place myself in Jesus' hands,
And there abide for ever;
No griefs, no joys, shall loose the bands,
Nor our sweet union sever;
In those dread days
When earth decays,
Who stays on Him, and whom He stays,
Shall be preserved for ever.
2 A rock and castle is the Lord,
And they shall see and wonder
Who build on His almighty word,
And thereon deeply ponder;
And what He saith,
In life and death,
My heart shall trust with steadfast faith,
Though earth be rent asunder.
3 Let Him do with me what He will,
He cannot fail to please me,
I cleave to Him with strong faith still,
And hope that He will bless me:
He must be blest
Who loves Him best,
And on His word doth firmly rest;
Lord, with this truth impress me.
4 When things are at their worst, I will
Still joy in His protection,
Who loves to bring out good from ill,
And grieves in my affliction:
His trials sent
Are all well meant,
His blows a Father's chastisement,
And tokens of affection.
5 My confidence unshaken stands
Upon His blessed promise,
That none shall pluck us from His hands,
Nor any foe o'ercome us.
He will not break
The word He spake,
He will not leave us, nor forsake,
Nor take His Spirit from us. Topics: The Church Year Second Sunday in Advent; The Church Year Second Sunday in Advent; Faith Used With Tune: [I place myself in Jesus' hands]

The Soldiers Led The Savior Out
Author: C. V. Pilcher; Hallgrim Petursson, 1614-1674 Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.8.7 Appears in 1 hymnal Lyrics: 1 The soldiers led the Savior out,
Their band together calling
Into the hall with cruel shout;
In blasphemy appalling,
They stripped Him of His clothes and spread
A purple robe about Him--red
Beneath it blood was falling.
2 Of thorns they platted swift a crown,
That pierced Him uncomplaining;
Hard on His head they crushed it down,
Until the blood drops raining
Gushed forth, His sacred eyes and face,
Which ever looked upon our race
In love, with crimson staining.
3 As scepter in His hand, a reed
They placed with hate unfeeling;
They hailed Him King and mocked His need,
In scorn before Him kneeling:
And as they spat and smote Him sore,
Their laughter, louder than before,
Thro' all the hall went pealing.
4 By Thy abasement, Lord, I gain
My royal exaltation;
Eternal honor I attain
Thro' Thy humiliation;
Amid the ransomed hosts I take,
For my adored Redeemer's sake,
With joy my blood-bought station.
5 And so, while life shall last,
Thy grace I would be ever praising,
To Thy dear name in ev'ry place
My thankful song upraising;
In ev'rything Thy blessed will
I would with ready heart fulfill
And tell Thy love amazing. Topics: The Church Year Passion Used With Tune: WOLFF

Thou, Jesus Christ, Didst Man Become
Author: Olaus Petri, 1497-1552 Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.8.7 Appears in 4 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Thou, Jesus Christ, didst man become
From death us to deliver;
Thy pitying eye beheld our doom,
That we were lost forever;
Thou gavest hope in direst need,
When death and hell with gaping greed
Were ready to devour us.
2 Thou couldst not bear that Satan's might
Had in its grasp enslaved us:
In pity thou didst for us fight,
And hast in mercy saved us.
From heaven Thou cam'st for our release,
To purchase our eternal peace,
By bitter death and suffering.
3 And Thou hast taught us in Thy Word
That faith shall life inherit,
For Thou art merciful, O Lord,
And sav'st us by Thy merit,
If we but simply do believe
That all Thy children shall receive
The blessings Thou hast promised.
4 Our brother Thou art now become--
An honor beyond measure!
Thou wouldst our life with mercy crown,
And give us richest treasure.
The world's contempt we need not fear,
God's Son is now our brother dear:
What power can now destroy us?
5 All praise to Thee eternally,
For all Thy gracious favor;
We are God's children now with Thee,
Lord Jesus Christ, our Saviour!
Well may we one and all rejoice,
And praise our God with heart and voice;
He is our gracious Father. Topics: Advent Used With Tune: AUS TIEFER NOTH SCHREI ICH ZU DIR

In this new year we render,
For Thou hast been from misery
And dangers our Defender;
Through all the year that now has fled
Hast giv'n us life and daily bread,
And peace within our borders.
2 Lord Jesus Christ, our thanks to Thee
In this new year we render,
For Thou still rulest zealously
Thy fold, with mercy tender;
Thou hast redeemed us with Thy blood,
Thou art our only Trust and Good,
In life and death our Savior.
3 Lord Holy Ghost, our thanks to Thee
In this new year we render,
For by Thy grace it is that we
Enjoy Thy Word's pure splendor;
Thus Thou hast kindled from above
Within our hearts true faith and love,
And other Christian virtues.
4 Our faithful God, we cry to Thee:
Still bless us with Thy favor;
Blot out all our iniquity,
And hide our sins forever;
Grant us a happy, good New Year,
And when the hour of death draw near,
A blest departure. Amen.

All Ye Who Like The Birds Can Soar
Author: P. C. Paulsen; N. F. S. Grundtvig Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.8.7 Appears in 3 hymnals Lyrics: 1 All ye who like the birds can soar,
Who earth and sea and sky explore,
Lift up your hearts in singing;
Give praise to God, for good is He
And by His grace would set you free
Who still to earth are clinging.
2 My soul, thou art of noble birth,
Thy thoughts rise upward from the earth
As if on eagle pinions.
Most lofty is thy upward flight
When thou ascendest, robed in light,
To heaven's fair dominions.
3 Thou canst not find on land or sea
A creature that is like to thee,
In need of grace from heaven;
God verily had thee in mind
When through His Son He saved mankind,
And thou to Him be given.
4 Awake, my soul, lift up thy voice;
Do thou in Christ the Lord rejoice
And laud Him as thy Savior,
Who from the Father's throne above
Bestows on thee His wondrous love,
His grace and ev'ry favor.
5 Go tell it to the birds that fly
And to the angels in the sky,
Whose song so happy soundeth,
That thou like them with joyful zest
Wilt praise thy God and call Him blest,
Whose grace to all aboundeth.
