Ruhet wohl, ihr toten beine!

Appears in 35 hymnals Topics: Death and Resurrection Lyrics: 1 Ruhet wohl, ihr todgen beine! In der stillen einsamkeit, Ruhet, bis das end erscheine, Da der Herr euch zu der freud Rufen wird aus euren grüften In die freye himmels lüften. 2 Nur getrost! ihr werdet leben Weil das leben euer hort, Die verheissung hat gegeben Durch sein theuer werthes wort: Keiner soll im tod verderben, Die in seinem namen sterben. 3 Und wie solt im grabe bleiben? Der ein tempel Gottes war, Den der Herr ließ einverleiben Seiner auserwählten schaar; Die er selbst mit blut und sterben Hat gemacht zu himmelserben. 4 Nien! die kan der tod nicht halten, Die des Herren glieder sind: Muß der leib im grab erkalten, Da man nichts als asche find't. Wird doch Gott, was vor gewesen, Wieder neu zusammen lesen. 5 Ja! er will, wie er erstanden, Selber an dem dritten tag, Also seine reichs-verwandten F¨¨hren aus des todes schmach, Zu den frohen hochzeit-freuden, Die er seiner braut bescheiden. 6 Ruhet demnach, in dem kühlen Eine noch so kurze zeit! Es will schon den aufzug spielen die so nahe ewigkeit; Da ihr solt mit haut und beinen Vor dem stuhl des Lamms erscheinen.

Thus in the quiet joy of kindly trust

Author: Horatius Bonar Appears in 2 hymnals Topics: Death and Resurrection Lyrics: 1 Thus in the quiet joy of kindly trust, We bid each parting saint a brief farewell; Weeping, yet smiling, we commit their dust To the safe keeping of the silent cell. 2 Softly within that peaceful resting-place We lay their wearied limbs, and bid the clay Press lightly on them till the night be past, And the far east give note of coming day. 3 The day of re-appearing! how it speeds! He who is true and faithful speaks the word: Then shall we ever be with those we love Then shall we be forever with the Lord. 4 The shout is heard, the Archangel's voice goes forth; The trumpet sounds, the dead awake and sing; The living put on glory; one glad band, They hasten up to meet their coming King. 5 Short death and darkness! Endless life and light; Short climbing; endless shining in yon sphere, Where all is incorruptible and pure; The joy without the pain, the smile without the tear. Used With Tune: EVENTIDE

Gently, dear Saviour, now we bring

Author: F. E. Belden Appears in 2 hymnals Topics: Death and Resurrection Lyrics: 1 Gently, dear Saviour, now we bring The loved one death has called his own; With all our griefs to thee we cling, For unto thee our griefs are known. 2 Thy way is best; and though we weep, We would not break this calm repose: Thou givest thy beloved sleep, And thou hast willed these eyes should close. 3 Blest be the grief that closer binds Our mourning hearts, O Lord, to thee! Blest be the faith, in death that finds A hope of immmortality! 4 Thus dust to dust, and earth to earth, And ashes cold we lay away To wait that glad, immortal birth, The promised resurrection day.

Come and make us, blessed Saviour, ever more Thine own! Blessed Saviour, evermore Thine own! 2 Is it true that He the crown of piercing thorns did wear? Is it true that up the mountain He the cross did bear, And was crucified upon it, thus to ransom me? O amazing love and mercy! Saviour, can it be? [Chorus] 3 Is it true that my Redeemer loves my spirit still, And will fit me up a mansion, if I only will? O my heart, make haste to serve Him, while on earth I dwell, That in death my voice can whisper, whisper it is well! [Chorus] Used With Tune: [Is it true that in the garden of Gethsemane]

The living know that they must die

Author: Anon. Appears in 2 hymnals Topics: Death and Resurrection Lyrics: 1 The living know that they must die, But all the dead unconscious lie; Their powers of thought and sense are gone, Alike unknowing the unknown. 2 Their hatred and their love are lost, Their envy buried in the dust; They have no share in all that's done Beneath the circuit of the sun. 3 Then what my thoughts design to do, My hands must hasten to pursue; Since no device, nor work is found, Nor faith, nor hope, beneath the ground.
