Nun bringen wir den Leib zur Ruh

Author: E. Liebich, 1713-1780 Appears in 83 hymnals Topics: Death and Funeral Songs Lyrics: 1 Nun bringen wir den Leib zur Ruh und decken ihn mit Erde zu, den leib, der nach des Schöpfers Schluß zu Staub und Erde werden muß. 2 Er bleibt nicht immer Asch und Staub, nicht immer der Verwesung Raub; er wird, wenn Christus einst erscheint, mit seiner Seele new vereint. 3 Hier Mensch, hier lerne, was du bist. schau hier, was unser Leben ist: nach Sorge Furcht und mancher Noth kommt endlich noch zuletzt der Tod. 4 Schnell schwindet unsre Lebenszeit, auf Sterben folgt die Ewigkeit. Wie wir die Zeit hier angewandt, so folgt der Lohn aus Gottes Hand. 5 O sichrer Mensch, besinne dich! Tod, Grab und Richter nahen sich. In Allem, was du denkst und thust, bedenke, daß du sterben mußt. 6 Hier wo wir bei den Gräbern stehn, soll jeder zu dem Vater flehn: Ich bitt, o Gott, durch christi Blut, mach's einst mit meinem Ende gut. 7 Laßt alle Sünden uns bereun, vor unserm Gott uns kindlich scheun. Wir sind hier immer in Gefahr, nehm jeder seine Seele wahr. 8 Wenn unser Lauf vollendet ist, so sei uns nah, Herr Jesu Christ. Mach uns das Sterben zum Gewinn, zeuch unsre Seelen zu dir hin. 9 Und wenn du einst, du Lebensfürst, die Gräber mächtig öffnen wirst, dann laß uns fröhlich auferstehn und dort dein Antlitz ewig sehn.

What a doleful voice I hear!

Author: Berridge Appears in 2 hymnals Topics: Sufferings, Death, and Cross of Christ Lyrics: 1 What a doleful voice I hear! What a garden-scene is there! What a frightful, ghastly flood! Jesus weltering in his blood! 2 Groaning on the ground he lies; Seems a slaughtered sacrifice! Tells me, with a feeble breath, “Sorrowful, yea, unto death!” 3 [How his eyes astonished are! Sure they witness conflict near! On his face what sadness dwells! Sure he feels a thousand hells!] 4 O my Jesus, let me know What has brought this heavy woe; Swords are piercing through thy heart; Whence arose the torturing smart? 5 “Sinner, thou hast done the deed; Thou hast made the Saviour bleed! Justice drew its sword on me! Pierced my heart to pass by thee! 6 “Now I take the deadly cup; All its dregs am drinking up; Read my anguish in my gore; Look, and pierce my heart no more.” 7 O thou bleeding love divine, What are other loves to thine? Theirs a drop, and thine a sea, Ever full, and ever free! 8 If I loved my Lord before, I would love him ten times more; Drop into his sea outright, Lose myself in Jesus quite. Scripture: Acts 17:3

O! blest are they that mourn

Author: F. E. Belden Appears in 3 hymnals Topics: Death and Resurrection Lyrics: 1 O! blest are they that mourn, Their comfort will I be; For sorrows deep I oft have borne, With none to comfort me. 2 I've stood beside the grave, I weep with those that weep For I have felt death's chilling wave, And crossed its waters deep. 3 I have the keys of death, To me they have been given; I'll call again the fleeting breath, When portals dark are riven. 4 How blessed here to mourn, And there be comforted When Christ shall call again his own, And bring them from the dead! Used With Tune: SILVERTON

Wenn kleine Himmelserben

Author: J. A. Rothe, 1688-1758 Appears in 61 hymnals Topics: Death and Funeral Songs Lyrics: 1 Wenn kleine Himmelserben in ihrerUnschuld sterben, so büßt man sie nicht ein; sie werden nur dort oben vom Vater aufgehoben, damit sie unverkoren sei'n. 2 Sie sind ja in der taufe zu ihrem Christenlaufe für Jesum eingeweiht, und noch bei Gott in Gnaden; Was sollt es ihnen schaden, das sie die Krone schon erfreut? 3 Wie leichtlich geht bei Kindern von uns erwachsnen Sündern das fremde Feuer an! O Glücke, wenn wir wissen, daß nichts mehr einzubüßen, das sie kein Tod mehr tödten kann. 4 O wohl auch diesem Kinde! Es stirbt nicht zu geschwinde. Zeuch hin, du liebes Kind! Du gehest ja nur schlafen, und bleibest bei den Schaafen, die ewig unsers Jesu sind.
