Author: Nikolai Frederick Severin Grundtvig, 1783-1872; J. C. Aaberg Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.8.7 Appears in 2 hymnals Lyrics: With her cruse of alabaster, Filled with ointment rare and sweet, Came the woman to the Master, Knelt contritely at His feet, Feeling with unfeigned contrition How unfit was her condition To approach the Holy One. Like this woman, I contritely Often must approach the Lord, Knowing that I cannot rightly Ask a place beside His board. Sinful and devoid of merit, I can only cry in spirit: Lord, be merciful to me. Lord of Grace and Mercy, harken To my plea for grace and light. Threatening clouds and tempests darken Now my soul with gloomy night. Let, despite my guilt and error, My repenting tears still mirror Thy forgiving smile, O Lord.

Whom your tears in death were mourning, welcome with your smiles returning. Let your alleluias rise! 2 Raise your weary eyelids, Mary -- see him living evermore; see his countenance so gracious, see the wounds for you he bore. All the glory of the morning pales before those wounds redeeming. Let your alleluias rise! 3 Life is yours for ever, Mary -- for your light is come once more and the strength of death is broken; now your songs of joy outpour. Ended now the night of sorrow, love has brought the blessed morrow. Let your alleluias rise.

The Lord is King: upon His throne

Author: James Montgomery Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.8.7 Appears in 6 hymnals Lyrics: The Lord is King:--upon His throne, He sits in garments glorious: Or girds for war His armour on, In every field victorious: The world came forth at his command; Built on His word its pillars stand; They never can be shaken. The Lord was King ere time began, His reign is everlasting: When high the floods in tumult ran, Their foam to heaven up-casting, He made the raging waves His path; The sea is mighty in its wrath, But God on high is mightier. Thy testimonies, Lord, are sure; Thy realm fears no commotion; Firm as the earth, whose shores endure The eternal toil of ocean: And Thou with perfect peace wilt bless Thy faithful flock;--for holiness Becomes Thine house for ever.

Oppressed by sin, O Lord, to Thee

Author: C.F. Gellert Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.8.7 Appears in 2 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Oppressed by sin, O Lord, to Thee I come in my affliction: O, full of pity, look on me, Impart Thy benediction. My sins are great, where shall I fell? The blood of Jesus speaks for me; For all our sins He carried. 2 Repentant at Thy feet I fall, To Thy cross humbly clinging, O Jesus, hear me when I call, My wants before Thee bringing. My trust is in Thy grace and power; For all was finished in that hour, When Thou didst make atonement. 3 When I approach Thine altar, Lord, May I this comfort cherish, That on the cross Thy blood was poured For me, lest I should perish. Thou didst for me God's law fulfill, That holy joy my heart might thrill When on Thy love I'm feasting. 4 Be Thou my shield 'gainst Satan's power, Whene'er he would assail me; The victor's crown, when come death's hour, O let it never fail me! Lord Jesus,Thou who savedst me, My life I would devote to Thee, To praise Thy name forever.
