In Death's Strong Grasp the Saviour Lay

Author: Martin Luther Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.8.7 Appears in 21 hymnals Topics: Names and Office of Christ Bread Lyrics: 1 In death's strong grasp the Saviour lay, For our offenses given: But, lo, the Lord is ris'n today, And brings us life from heaven: Now therefore let us all rejoice And praise our God with cheerful voice, And sing loud hallelujahs. 2 Here the true Paschal Lamb we see, Whom God so freely gave us; He died on the accursed tree, So strong His love to save us. Th'atoning blood now marks our door, Faith points to it, death passes o'er, He nevermore can harm us. 3 So let us keep the festival Whereto the Lord invites us; Christ is Himself the Joy of all, The Sun which warms and lights us: And by His grace He doth impart Eternal sunshine to the heart; The night of sin is ended. Hallelujah! 4 Then let us feast this Easter day On the true Bread of heaven; The Word of grade hath purged away The old and wicked leaven: For Christ alone our souls will feed, He is our meat and drink indeed; Faith lives upon no other. Amen. Scripture: Exodus 12:7 Used With Tune: O JESU CHRIST, DU HÖCHSTES GUT

Lord Christ Jesus, Our Salvation

Author: Jan Hus; Dirk French Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 1 hymnal Topics: Christ--Bread of Life Lyrics: 1 Lord Christ Jesus, our salvation, every sinner's vindication, gave us bread in his remembrance as a sacrifice in semblance. 2 O that bread of yours, how holy, which, Christ Jesus, you are solely! Bread, a food so elemental, yet supremely sacramental. 3 This is gift of sweetest savor, feast bestowed by heaven's favor, miracle and meal in union, wondrous grace of our communion. 4 Hail, O form of God made human, who God's unity illumine; each takes pleasure in your being who through eyes of faith is seeing. 5 No mere bread, but mediator - God and man, our liberator while on cross you hung suspended till your life in flesh had ended. 6 Not enhanced by consecration, unconsumed, without mutation, parted not though bread be broken, you bear godhood's every token. 7 Worthy to be angels' victual, model for the saints' committal, you the New Law validated whom the Old had intimated. 8 O most wholesome balm of healing, all our debt to sins repealing, feed us; set us free from evil; lead us in your light primeval. 9 O what wonders you have rendered who, O Christ, your self have tendered through your symbols of redeeming, wine and brad in likeness seeming. 10 Bread and wine convey your presence as a mystery in essence. Yours be praise and adoration unto every generation! Amen. Scripture: John 6 Used With Tune: JESUS CHRISTUS, UNSER HEILAND
