There is an hour of hallowed peace

Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymnal #455 (1880) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Christian Life and Hope Lyrics: 1 There is an hour of hallowed peace, For those with care oppressed, When sighs and sorr'wing tears shall cease, And all be hushed to rest: 2 ‘Tis then the soul is freed from fears, And doubts here here annoy: Then they that oft have sown in tears Shall reap again in joy. 3 There is a home of sweet repose, Where storms assail no more; The stream of endless pleasure flows On that celestial shore: 4 There purity with love appears, And bliss without alloy; Then they that oft had sown in tears Shall reap again in joy.

My Jesus, as Thou wilt!

Author: Benjamin Schmolck; Jane Borthwick Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran hymnal #509 (1908) Topics: Christian Life and Hope The Walk of Godliness: Cross and Consolation Lyrics: 1 My Jesus, as Thou wilt! O may Thy will be mine; Into Thy hand of love I would my all resign. Through sorrow, or through joy, Conduct me as Thine own; And help me still to say, My Lord, Thy will be done! 2 My Jesus, as Thou wilt! If needy here and poor, Give me Thy people’s bread, Their portion rich and sure The manna of Thy Word Let my soul feed upon; And if all else should fail My Lord, Thy will be done! 3 My Jesus, as Thou wilt! Though seen through many a tear, Let not my star of hope Grow dim or disappear; Since Thou on earth hast wept, And sorrowed oft alone, If I must weep with Thee, My Lord, Thy will be done! 4 My Jesus, as Thou wilt! When death itself draws nigh, To Thy dear wounded side I would for refuge fly. Leaning on Thee, to go Where Thou before hast gone. The rest as Thou shalt please; My Lord, Thy will be done! 5 My Jesus, as Thou wilt! All shall be well for me; Each changing future scene I gladly trust with Thee. Thus to my home above I travel calmly on, And sing, in life or death, My Lord, Thy will be done! Languages: English Tune Title: JEWETT

Abide with me, fast falls the eventide

Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymnal. 9th ed. #a440 (1895) Topics: Christian Life and Hope Lyrics: 1 Abide with me! fast falls the eventide; The darkness deepens; Lord, with me abide! When other helpers fail, and comforts flee, Help of the helpless, O abide with me! 2 Swift to its close ebbs out life's little day; Earth's joys grow dim, its glories pass away; Change and decay in all around I see. O Thou who changes not, abide with me! 3 Not a brief glance I beg, a passing word, But as Thou dwell'st with Thy disciples, Lord, Familiar, condescending, patient, free, Come, not to sojourn, but abide with me. 4 Come not in terrors as the King of kings, But kind and good, with healing on Thy wings; Tears for all woes, a heart for every plea; O Friend of sinners, thus abide with me! 5 Thou on my head in early youth didst smile, And, though rebellious and perverse meanwhile, Thou hast not left me, oft as I left Thee: On to the close, O Lord, abide with me! 6 I need Thy presence every passing hour: What but thy grace can foil the tempter's power? Who like Thyself my guide and stay can be? Through cloud and sunshine, O abide with me! 7 I fear no foe, with Thee at hand to bless: Ills have no weight, and tears no bitterness. Where is death's sting? where, grave, thy victory? I triumph still, if Thou abide with me! 8 Hold Thou Thy Cross before my closing eyes, Shine through the gloom, and point me to the skies: Heaven's morning breaks, and earth's vain shadows flee; In life, in death, O Lord, abide with me!

Praise thou the Lord, the omnipotent Monarch of Glory

Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymnal. 9th ed. #a361 (1895) Topics: Christian Life and Hope Lyrics: 1 Praise thou the Lord, the omnipotent Monarch of Glory; Join in, my soul, with the heavenly choir in their story; Come and partake; Psalt'ry and harp also wake: Sing the Creator's great glory! 2 Praise thou the Lord, who e'er ruleth and guideth all surely; Over life's pathway, so fearful, He leads thee securely; Ever He sends Mercies and blessings and friends; Then from thy heart thank Him truly. 3 Praise thou the Lord, who hath fearfully, wondrously made thee, Health has vouchsafed, and when heedlessly falling hath stayed thee; Fainting and weak, When not a word thou couldst speak, Wings of His mercy did shade thee. 4 Praise thou the Lord, who thy life hath so visibly guided, Streams of free grace, in His Son, for thy sin hath provided; Plain to thy view, God, the Almighty and True, Ne'er from His child is divided. 5 Praise thou the Lord, and forget all His benefits never; Swell the loud chorus, ye chosen, till broad as a river Upward it stream; Soul, O forget not this theme: Praise Him, O praise Him forever.

Lord, it belongs not to our care

Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymnal. 9th ed. #a403 (1895) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Christian Life and Hope Lyrics: 1 Lord, it belongs not to our care Whether we die or live; To love and serve Thee be our share, And this Thy grace must give. 2 Christ leads us through no darker rooms Than He went through before; Whoever to God's kingdom comes, Must enter by this door. 3 Come, Lord, when grace hath made us meet Thy blessed face to see; For if Thy work on earth be sweet, What will Thy glory be? 4 There shall we end our sad complaints, And weary sinful days; And join with the triumphant saints That sing Jehovah's praise. 5 Our knowledge of that life is small, The eye of faith is dim; But 'tis enough that Christ knows all, And we shall be with him.

O Lord! how happy is the time

Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymnal. 9th ed. #a421 (1895) Topics: Christian Life and Hope Lyrics: 1 O Lord! how happy is the time, When in thy love I rest, When from my weariness I climb E'en to Thy tender breast. The night of sorrow endeth there, The rays outshine the sun, And in Thy pardon, and Thy care, The heaven of heavens is won. 2 The world may call itself my foe, Or let the world allure, I care not for the world--I go To this tried Friend and sure. And when life's fiercest storms are sent, Upon life's wildest sea, My little bark is confident, Because it holds by Thee. 3 When the law threatens endless death, Upon the dreadful hill, Straightway from its consuming breath My soul mounts higher still; It hastes to Jesus, wounded, slain, And finds in Him its home, Whence it shall not go forth again, And where no death can come. 4 I do not fear the wilderness, Where Thou hast been before; Nay! rather would I daily press Toward Thee, and near Thee more! Thou art my strength, on Thee I lean, My heart thou makest sing, And to Thy pastures rich and green Thy chosen flock wilt bring. 5 And if the gate that opens there Be closed to other men, It is not closed to those who share The heart of Jesus then. That is not losing much of life, Which is not losing thee, Who art as present in the strife, As in the victory! Languages: English

My Father! cheering name!

Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymnal. 9th ed. #a424 (1895) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Topics: Christian Life and Hope Lyrics: 1 My Father! cheering name! Oh, may I call Thee mine? Give me with humble hope to claim A portion so divine. 2 Whate'er Thy will denies, I calmly would resign, For Thou art just, and good, and wise: O bend my will to Thine! 3 Whate'er Thy will ordains, O give me strength to bear; Still let me know a Father reigns, And trust a Father's care. 4 Thy ways are little known To my weak, erring sight; Yet shall my soul, believing, own, That all Thy ways are right.
