Praise to the heavenly Wisdom

Author: Rev. J. Ellerton Meter: 7.6 D Appears in 10 hymnals Topics: Other Feasts and Fasts St. Matthias Lyrics: 1 Praise to the heavenly Wisdom Who knows the hearts of all-- The saintly life's beginnings, The traitor's secret fall; Our own ascended Master, Who heard His Church's cry, Made known His guiding presence, And ruled her from on high. 2 Elect in His foreknowledge, To fill the lost one's place; He formed His chosen vessel By hidden gifts of grace; Then, by the lot's disposing He lifted up the poor, And set him with the Princes On high for evermore. 3 Still guide Thy Church, chief Shepherd, Her losses still renew; Be Thy dread keys entrusted To faithful hands and true; Apostles of Thy choosing May all her rulers be, That each with joy may render His last account to Thee! Amen. Used With Tune: LOCHBIE

Jesus, lyft ditt ljose Merke

Author: Blix Appears in 1 hymnal Topics: Tredie Søndag i Faste Til Hoimesse Lyrics: 1 Jesus, lyft ditt ljose Merke, Du, som Myrkret yvervann! Syn, at enu du er den Sterke, Som mot Satan sigra kann! Um han kjem i Engleham, Fer med Lygn og Løynraad fram, Um med Vald han vil oss herja, Du, den Sterke, kann oss verja! 2 Vel han kann med Vantru blinda Syndaren paa syn og Vit, Øyrat teppa, tunga blinda, So han dauv og maalaus sit: So han ikkje skoda kann Ljøset, som i Kristus rann, Ikkje høyra ikkje mæla Um hans Naade og hans Sæla. 3 Men naar so den Sterke syner All si myrke Magt paa Jord, Kjem den Sterkare og tyner Honom med sitt Veldes Ord. Jesus Krist, vaar Frelsarmann, Du hans Fangar fria kann, Maallaus Munn kann giva mæle, 4 Me, som i vaar Synd var selde, Ved din Siger Fridom vann. Me, som laag i Myrkers Velde, Me no Ljoset skoda kann, Som ifraa di Aasyn klaart Straalar inn i Hjartat vaart, – Kann med løyste Tungor tala, Ved ditt Ord all Hugsott svala. 5 Jesus, lær oss vel aa vaka, Mot den Vonde væpnad staa! Den, som fekk din Naade smaka Og so atter sell ifraa, I hans Vald daa er han visst, Illa fyrst, men verre sidst: Vonde Andar, sjaufald verre, I hans Hjarta daa er Herre. 6 Sæl er den velsignad Moder, Som deg under Hjarta bar! Ja, og sæl den minste Broder, Som det tru til Enden var! Kvar, som Ordet gjøyma vil Og i Tru deg høyra til, Han er løyst fraa Myrkers Velde: Du, den Sterke, Myrkret felde. Syndara kann gjera sæle!

Have mercy Lord, on us we pray

Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 4 hymnals Topics: Fast Day in time of Distress Lyrics: 1 Have mercy Lord, on us we pray, Thy grace to us reveal; O turn thy Plagues from us away Tho' we deserve them well. 2 Thy punishments are justly due, And answer to our crimes! And we are made to feel them too, In these distressing times. 3 Lord, what destruction death has made, How has it swept our towns; What numbers number'd with the dead, In neighbouring places round. 4 Death visits us in all our homes, And there makes his abode: And hurries mortals to their tombs That sink beneath his load. 5 Well may we sorrow, weep and mourn, And pray with all our heart: That God in mercy may return, And bid our Plagues depart. Scripture: Hebrews 12:1-11

Harvest

Appears in 100 hymnals Topics: Fasts and Thanksgiving First Line: To praise thee ever bounteous Lord Lyrics: 1 To praise thee ever bounteous Lord, My soul, wake all thy powers: He calls, and at his voice come forth, The smiling harvest hours. 2 His cov'nant with the earth he keeps; My tongue, his goodness sing: Summer and winter know their time, His harvest crowns the spring. 3 Well pleas'd the toiling swains behold The waving yellow crop: With joy they bear the sheaves away, And sow again in hope. 4 Thus teach me, gracious GOD, to sow The seeds of righteousness: Smile on my soul, and with thy beams The ripening harvest bless. 5 Then, in the last great harvest, I, Shall reap a glorious crop: The harvest shall be far exceed, What I have sown in hope.

We praise Thy grace, O Saviour

Author: Bishop W. W. How Meter: 7.6 Appears in 13 hymnals Topics: Other Feasts and Fasts St. Mark Lyrics: 1 We praise Thy grace, O Saviour, That beareth with us long, And ever out of weakness Thy servants maketh strong. 2 The saint, who left his comrades, And turned back from the fight, Behold at last victorious In Thy prevailing might! 3 From Thee, Lord, came the courage Once more to front the host: Thy strength, most mighty Savior, In weakness shineth most. 4 Thy love Saint Mark hath numbered Among the blessèd four, And all the world rejoiceth To learn his Gospel-lore. 5 O Lord, our human weakness With pitying eye behold; Uplift the fainting spirit, And make the coward bold. 6 O Jesu, glorious Victor O'er all the hosts of sin, In us Thy strength make perfect, In us the victory win. Amen. Used With Tune: [We praise Thy grace O Saviour]

Ten thousand times ten thousand

Author: H. Alford Meter: 7.6.8.6 D Appears in 442 hymnals Topics: Other Feasts and Fasts Lyrics: 1 Ten thousand times ten thousand In sparkling raiment bright, The armies of the ransomed saints Throng up the steeps of light: 'Tis finished! all is finished, Their fight with death and sin: Fling open wide the golden gates, And let the victors in. 2 What rush of alleluias Fills all the earth and sky! What ringing of a thousand harps Bespeaks the triumph nigh! O day, for which creation And all its tribes were made! O joy, for all its former woes A thousand-fold repaid! 3 OH, then what raptured greetings On Canaan's happy shore! What knitting severed friendships up, Where partings are no more! Then eyes with joy shall sparkle, That brimmed with tears of late; Orphans no longer fatherless, Nor widows desolate. 4 Bring near Thy great salvation, Thou Lamb for sinners slain; Fill up the roll of Thine elect, Then take Thy power and reign! Appear, Desire of nations! Thine exiles long for home: Show in the heavens Thy promised sign! Thou Prince and Saviour, come! Amen. Used With Tune: ALFORD

Fromme Gud! for dig jeg klage

Appears in 4 hymnals Topics: Første Søndag i Faste Lyrics: 1 Fromme Gud! for dig jeg klage Maa min Sjæls Elendighed, Skjønt dit Øie selv min Plage Bedre, end jeg, ser og ved; Jeg stor Afmagt føle maa, Naar min Tro kal Prøve staa, Og den grumme Helvedløve Vil mig den af Hjertet røve. 2 Du, min Gud, som Alting kjender, Ved, jeg Intet selv formaar, Men fra dine Almagtshænder Venter alle Naadekaar; Findes noget Godt i mig, Det alene er af dig, Ja din Naade maa mig give, Udi Naadens Stand at blive. 3 O, min Gud, jeg dig opleder Nu udi min store Nød, Hør, hvor hjerteklemt jeg beder: Fri mig fra al Storm og Stød. Gjør til Intet Satans Værk, Gjør min svage Tro saa stærk, At jeg ei mistrøstig bliver, Men mig Christo overgiver. 4 Jesu, du al Godheds Kilde, Som ei nogen Sjæl forsmaar, Der er svag og lider ilde, Men forbinder Hjertets Saar: Om den Tro, som Dine har, Som et Senepskorn kun var, Vilde du dem dog forjætte Store Bjerge at forsætte. 5 Lad mig Naade for dig finde, Nu jeg er saa sorrigfuld, Hjælp mig selv at overvinde, Ellers kastes jeg omkuld; Styrk min Tro i denne Færd, Og forlen mig Aandens Sværd, Dermed kan jeg Fienden dræbe, Som min Sjæl vil efterstræbe. 6 Hellig-Aand, dig altid være Med Gud Fader og Guds Søn Lige Magt og lige Ære! Bøi dit Øre til min Bøn, Du, som haver selv antændt Al den Tro i mig er kjendt, Du fremdeles mig regjere, Og dit Værk i mig formere! 7 Du din Hjælp mig ville sende, O du ædle Sjælegjæst! Og den Gjerning selv fuldende, Hvis Begynder du dog est; Pust selv op den liden Gnist, At jeg efter Livets Frist Langer Troens Maal med Ære, Og kan Seierskronen bære! 8 Gud, den alle guder vige, Hellige Treenighed! Jeg ei ved af Hjælp at sige Uden den, du sender ned, Stat mig bi, naar Satan sig Nærmer at bestorme mig, Vil mig Svage undertvinge Og mit Sind til Mishaab bringe. 9 Drag mig af hans Garn og Lænker, Som han ser mig haver fat; Lad ham feile i de Rænker, Han opfinder Dag og Nat; Giv mig Styrke, Mod og Lyst At udholde hver en Dyst, At jeg troligen maa kjæmpe Og min Fiende kraftig dæmpe! 10 Ræk dit svage Barn, som glider Og paa trætte Fødder staar, Naadens Haand den Stund jeg lider, Indtil Nøden overgaar, Led mig varlig som e Smaa, Saa ei Fienden rose maa, At han har et Hjerte fældet, Som til dig sig have hældet. 11 Du er ene al min Styrke, Klippe, Slot og faste Borg, Som jeg vil af Hjertet dyrke, Som kan lette al min Sorg; Kom til Hjælp, til Trøst, til Fryd, Stans Pile sønderbryd, Ja ham selv lad gaa med Skamme Til sit Sted i Helveds Flamme! 12 Jeg i alle mine Dage Rose vil din stærke Arm, At du haver endt min Plage Og afvendt min Sjæleharm; Ei alene vil jeg her, men og evig hos dig der I dig Englechor udsjunge, Gud, din Lov med Røst og Tunge.
