O contemplate in humbleness The pow'r and riches of his grace. 2 In Him we live and have our being; And all the hosts of heav'n and earth The living God, all-wise, all-seeing, Thro' His own Spirit brought to birth. His holy Name, writ in His Word, Thro' all the universe is heard. 3 The Lord who laid the earth's foundation, And for the stars their course decreed, Whose hand hath ordered all creation, Provideth for our every need; For God is Love: the Father's care His smallest child shall duly share. 4 From out the gloom mine eye descrieth The Maker's footprints in the sky; the starry chorus testifieth To His eternal majesty; While on my path each tiny flower Proclaims His glory and His power. 5 Into Thy hand, O God Almighty, My weal and woe I will entrust; My need Thou seest who takest pity On every worm that crawls the dust. In pleasure's path or sorrow's way Be Thou my Guide, O Lord, I pray. 6 And when the morning star appeareth, Thy grace, Thy glory we proclaim; When falls the dew, and evening neareth, O Lord, we call upon Thy Name. Upon Thy mercy we rely, Father, Creator, God on high. Amen. Scripture: Psalm 19 Used With Tune: WIE WEISS, WIE NAHE MIR MEIN ENDE

Des armen Sünders Advents-Verlangen und göttlicher Trost

Author: Paul Gerhardt Appears in 39 hymnals Topics: Advent and Incarnation of Jesus Christ First Line: Warum willst Du draußen stehen Lyrics: 1 Warum willst Du draußen stehen, Du Gesegneter des Herrn? Laß Dir bei mir einzugehen wohlgefallen, Du mein Stern! Du mein Jesu, meine Freud', Helfer zu der rechten Zeit; hilf, o Heiland meinem Herzen, von den Wunden, die mich schmerzen. 2 Meine Wunden sind der Jammer, welchen oftmals Tag und Nacht des Gesetzes starker Hammer mir mit seinem Schrecken macht. O der schweren Donner-stimm, die mir Gottes Zorn und Grimm also tief ins Herze schläget, daß sich all mein Blut beweget! 3 Dazu kömmt des Teufels Lügen, der mir alle Gnad absagt, als müßt ich nun ewig liegen in der Hölle, die ihn plagt; ja auch, was noch ärger ist, so zermartert und zerfrißt mich mein eigenes Gewissen mit vergift'ten Schlangenbissen. 4 Will ich dann mein Elend lindern und erleichtern meine Noth bei der Welt und ihren Kindern, fall ich vollend's in den Koth: Da ist Trost, der mich betrübt, Freude, die mein Unglück liebt, Helfer, die mir Herzleid machen, güte Freunde, die mein lachen. 5 In der Welt ist alles nichtig; nichts ist, das nicht kraftlos wär': hab ich Hoheit, die ist flüchtig; hab ich Reichtum, was ist's mehr, als ein Stücklein armer Erd? hab ich Lust, was ist sie werth? Was ist, das mich heut erfreuet, das mich morgen nicht gereuet? 6 Aller Trost und alle Freude ruht in Dir, Herr Jesu Christ; Dein Erfreuen ist die Weide, da man sich recht fröhlich ißt. Leuchte mir o Freudenlicht, ehe mir mein Herze bricht; laß mich, Herr, an Dir erquicken, Jesu komm, laß Dich erblicken. 7 Freu dich, Herz, du bist erhöret, jetzo zeucht Er bei dir ein, sein Gang ist zu dir gekehret, heiß Ihn nur willkommen sein, und bereite dich Ihm zu, gieb dich ganz zu seiner Ruh, öffne dein Gemüth und Seele, klag' Ihm, was dich drückt und quäle. 8 Was du Böses hast begangen, das ist alles abgeschafft; Gottes Liebe nimmt gefangen deiner Sünden Macht und Kraft; Christi Sieg behält das Feld, und was Böses in der Welt sich will wider dich erregen, wird zu lauter Glück und Segen. 9 Alles dient zu deinem Frommen, was dir bös' und schädlich scheint, weil dich Christus angenommen und es treulich mit dir meint. Bleibst du deme wieder treu ist's gewiß und bleibt dabei, daß du mit den Engeln droben Ihn dort ewig werdest loben.
