The Old Year Now hath Passed Away

Author: Catherine Winkworth; Johann Steuerlein Hymnal: The Lutheran Hymnal #125 (1941) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: The Church Year New Year Lyrics: 1 The old year now hath passed away; We thank Thee, O our God, today That Thou hast kept us through the year When danger and distress were near. 2 We pray Thee, O eternal Son, Who with the Father reign’st as One, To guard and rule Thy Christendom Through all the ages yet to come. 3 Take not Thy saving Word away, Our souls’ true comfort, staff, and stay. Abide with us and keep us free From errors, foll'wing only Thee. 4 Oh, help us to forsake all sin, A new and holier course begin! Mark not what once was done amiss; A happier, better year be this, 5 Wherein as Christians we may live Or die in peace that Thou canst give, To rise again when Thou shalt come And enter Thine eternal home. 6 There shall we thank Thee and adore With all the angels evermore. Lord Jesus Christ, increase our faith To praise Thy name through life and death. Amen. Scripture: John 15:4 Languages: English Tune Title: HERR JESU CHRIST, DICH

Refrain: Onward, then, and fear not, Children of the day, For His word shall never, never pass away. Onward, then, and fear not, Children of the day, For His word shall never, never pass away. 2 I, the Lord, am with thee, be thou not afraid; I will help and strengthen, be thou not dismayed; Yea, I will uphold thee with mine own right hand; Thou art called the chosen, in my sight to stand. [Refrain] 3 For the year before us, oh, what rich supplies! For the poor and needy living streams shall rise; For the sad and sinful shall his grace abound; For the faint and feeble perfect strength be found. [Refrain] 4 He will never fail us, he will not forsake; And his precious promise he will never break; Resting on the promise, what have we to fear? God is all sufficient for the coming year. [Refrain] Scripture: Isaiah 41:10 Tune Title: [Standing at the portal of the coming year]

Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: OLD HUNDREDTH
