Now Lay We Calmly in the Grave

Author: M. Weisse, c. 1480-1534; C. Winkworth, 1827-78 Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymnary #476 (1996) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Trinity 16 Lyrics: 1 Now lay we calmly in the grave This form, whereof no doubt we have That it shall rise again that day In glorious triumph o'er decay. 2 And so to earth we hear entrust What came from dust and turns to dust, And from the dust shall surely rise When the last trumpet fills the skies. 3 This soul forever lives in God Whose grace His pardon hath bestowed, Who through His Son redeemed us here From bondage to both sin and fear. 4 So help us, Christ, our Hope in loss, Thou hast redeemed us by Thy cross From endless death and misery; We praise, we bless, we worship Thee.

The Will of God is always Best

Author: A. von Brandenburg, 1522-57 Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymnary #477 (1996) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Topics: Trinity 16 Lyrics: 1 The will of God is always best And shall be done forever; And they who trust in Him are blest, He will forsake them never. He helps indeed In time of need, He chastens with forbearing; They who depend On God, their Friend, Shall not be left despairing. 2 God is my Comfort and my Trust, My Hope and life abiding; And to His counsel wise and just, I yield, in Him confiding. The very hairs, His Word declares, Upon my head He numbers. By night and day God is my Stay, He never sleeps nor slumbers. 3 Lord Jesus, this I ask of Thee, Deny me not this favor: When Satan sorely troubles me, Then do not let me waver. Keep watch and ward, O gracious Lord, Fulfil Thy faithful saying: Who doth believe He shall receive An answer to His praying. 4 When life's brief course on earth is run And I this world am leaving, Grant me to say: "Thy will be done," By faith to Thee still cleaving. My heav'nly Friend, I now commend My soul into Thy keeping, O'er sin and hell, And death as well, Through Thee the vict'ry reaping. Languages: English Tune Title: WAS MEIN GOTT WILL

Peaceful rest, Whose waking is supremely blest; No fear, no woe, shall dim that hour That manifests the Savior's pow'r. 4 Asleep in Jesus! O for me May such a blissful refuge be! Securely shall my ashes lie And wait the summons from on high. Languages: English

Into Thy hands I will commend My soul at this my earthly end, And Thou wilt keep it safely. 2 My sins, dear Lord, disturb me sore, My conscience cannot slumber; But though as sands upon the shore My sins may be in number, I will not quail, but think of Thee; Thy death, Thy sorrow, borne for me, Thy suff'rings, shall uphold me. 3 I am a branch in Thee, the Vine, And hence the comfort borrow That Thou wilt surely keep me Thine Through fear and pain and sorrow; And when I die, I die to Thee, Thy precious death hath won for me The life that never endeth. 4 Since Thou the pow'r of death didst rend, In death Thou wilt not leave me; Since Thou didst into heaven ascend, No fear of death shall grieve me. For where Thou art, there shall I be That I may ever live with Thee; That is my hope when dying. 5 My spirit I commend to Thee And gladly hence betake me; Peaceful and calm my sleep shall be, No human voice can wake me. But Christ is with me through the strife, And He will bear me into life And open heav'n before me. Languages: English Tune Title: WENN MEIN STÜNDLEIN

In Heaven Is Joy and Gladness

Here ills, alway prevailing, Distress the Savior's bride; Here mirth is lost in wailing; In heav'n but joys abide. 2 I do not strive for pleasures That fools pursue on earth, I sow in tears for treasures That have more lasting worth. If, when my journey endeth, The sheaves I gather in, The bliss the fool pretendeth I do not yearn to win. 3 For I shall see my Jesus, He is my Hope and Stay; The cross that me oppresses He then shall take away. Then nothing more shall grieve me, And no adversity Shall of my joy bereave me; Soon I shall Jesus see. Languages: English

Viis mig ret klarlig min Jammer og Møie, Viis mig Fordærvelsens Afgrund i mig, At sig Naturen til Døden kan bøie, Aanden alene maa leve for dig! 2 Styrk mig ret kraftig i Sjælen derinde, At jeg kan finde, hvad Aanden formaar, Tag dig til Fange min Tale og Sinde, Leed mig og lok mig, saa svag som jeg gaar! Mig, og hvad mit er, jeg gjerne vil miste, Naar du alene i Sjælen maa bo, Og sig omsider paa Døren maa liste, Hvad som forstyrrer min inderlig' Ro. 3 O, hvo der kunde det Ene kun lære, Sig at opofre med Hjerte og Hu! O, maatte Jesus mit Alting kun være! Jeg er desværre, langt borte endnu; Jesu, som gav mig et hørende Øre, Rek mig tillige din kraftige Haand, At jeg herefter min Vandring maa føre Ret som en Kristen i Helligheds Aand! 4 Hør dog, o Jesu, din kurrende Due, Hyrde, opsøg dit vildfarende Lam! Bær mig blandt Myrrha en lædskende Drue, Rense mit Hjerte fra Synd og fra Skam! Lad mig i Bogstavens Væsen ei blive, Som kun udvortes gjør ærbar og sin; Aanden lad Loven i Hjertet indskrive, At jeg i Sandhed maa kalde mig din! 5 Jesu, naar vil du dog skaffe mig Hvile? Byrden den trykker, ak, tag mig den af! Naar skal jeg se dig ret venlig at smile? Reis dig at true det brusende Hav! Kjærligste Jesu, du maa dig forbarme, Skjul dog det Aasyn ei evig for mig! Ædleste Rigdom for aandelig Arme, Fyld mit, det udtømte, Hjerte med dig! 6 Lad mig, o Jesu, forgjæves ei raabe, Se dog hvor Sjælen er hungrig og træt! Lad os, Immanuel, være tilhobe, Har jeg dig ene, saa bliver jeg mæt! Fordum du sagde: De maatte vansmægte, Dersom jeg lader dem hungrige gaa,– Evige Kjærlighed, kan du da nægte Sjæle, der hungre, en Smule at faa? 7 Naadigste Jesu, nu vil jeg mig binde Ved din den dyre Forjættelses Pagt: Beder og leder, saa faa I og finde! Saa har de sanddrue Læber jo sagt. Jeg vil med Kvinden af Kanaans Egne Raabe dig efter, og bliver ei stil, Før du paa Bønnen til Slutning maa tegne: Amen, ja Amen, dig ske, som du vil!
