Author: Rev. J. F. Thrupp Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 10 hymnals Topics: Other Feasts and Fasts St. Stephen Lyrics: 1 O Son of Man, Thyself once crossed By ev'ry suffering here below, Who taught'st Thy noble martyr-host To follow in Thy path of woe: 2 O Son of God, Whose glory cast Its light upon Thy champion's face, Revealing to his eye at last The marvels of the holiest place; 3 Be ours the faith that sees Thee stand Beside the throne of God on high, To succor with Thy strong right hand Thy soldiers when to Thee they cry. 4 Be ours the hope, resigned and meek, That trusts the spirit to Thy care, That longs Thy face in heaven to seek, And dwell with Thee in glory there. 5 Be ours the love, divine and free, Which asks forgiveness for our foes; Which draws, in life, its life from Thee, And, dying, finds in Thee repose. Amen. Used With Tune: [O Son of Man, Thyself once crossed]

Hvorhen skal jeg dog fly

Author: Johan Heermann; Tauler; Brorson; Wexels Appears in 4 hymnals Topics: Anden Søndag I Faste Til Høimesse -Til Anden Tekstrækkes Evangelium Lyrics: 1 Hvorhen skal jeg dog fly Fra Lovens Tordensky Med mine Synder mange, Hvor skal jeg Trøsten fange? Thi hele Verden vide Ei lette kan min Kvide. 2 O Jesus, naaderig! Med Hjertens Sorg til dig Jeg paa dit Ord fremtræder, Mig ved din Naade glæder, Og tror, hvad du forjætter, Dit Blod min Synd udsletter. 3 Jeg arme Dødsens Barn, Omsnært af Syndens Garn, Til dig i Troen haster, Og i din Favn mig kaster, I Naadens Dyb jeg sænker Den Kval, som Hjertet krænker. 4 Jeg ser, mit Skylde-Brev Til Korset naglet blev, Og i din Grav i Haven, Der er min synd begraven Til evig Skjul og Gjemme, Hvi vil jeg mig da gremme? 5 Jeg meget har behov, Men Gud ske evig Lov! Alt, hvad jeg kan begjære, Hos dig jeg faar ja mere; Min Kraft i dig jeg finder, Hos dig min Sorg forsvinder. 6 Om Satans hele Magt Sig hade mod mig lagt, For mig fra dig at skille, De faa ei, hvad de ville, Thi du mig Seier giver, Dit Blod min Frelse bliver. 7 Men bøi, o Sjæleven, Min Hjertens Hu derhen, At jeg maa alt modstride, Som mig fra dig vil slide, Og altid her i Live Dit Legems Lem forblive.

Neale Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 Appears in 79 hymnals Topics: Other Feasts and Fasts Lyrics: 1 Blessed city, heavenly Salem, Vision dear of peace and love, Who of living stones art builded In the height of heaven above, And, with angel hosts encircled, As a bride dost earthward move; 2 From celestial realms descending, Bridal glory round thee shed, Meet for Him Whose love espoused thee, To thy Lord shall thou be led; All thy streets and all thy bulwarks Of pure gold are fashionèd. 3 Bright thy gates of pearl are shining, They are open evermore; And by virtue of His merits Thither faithful souls do soar, Who for Christ's dear Name, in this world Pain and tribulation bore. 4 Many a blow and biting sculpture Polished well those stones elect, In their places now compacted By the heavenly Architect, Who therewith hath willed forever That His palace should be decked. 5 Laud and honor to the Father, Laud and honor to the Son, Laud and honor to the Spirit, Ever Three, and ever One, Consubstantial, Co-eternal, While unending ages run. Amen. Used With Tune: ORIEL

O Jesus, som har elsket mig

Author: Paul Gerhardt; Brorson Appears in 6 hymnals Topics: Anden Søndag I Faste Til Høimesse -Til Anden Tekstrækkes Evangelium Lyrics: 1 O Jesus, som har elsket mig, Ja med saa overmaade Aldeles ubegribelig En Kjærlighed og Naade, O, tænd mit Hjerte op igjen Med Kjærlighedens Iver, At jeg giver Mig ganske til dig hen, Og altid hos dig bliver! 2 Det var din Hjertens Kjærlighed, Der bragte mig den Naade, At du for mine Synder led Den haade Dødsens Vaade. Ak, maatte jeg din Pines Sag, De dybe Naadens Grunde Saa tilstunde, At Sjælen Nat og Dag Til dig opløftes kunde! 3 Min Trøst, mit Lys, min bedste Ven Og største Lyst i Livet, O hav mig, tag mig ganske hen! Dig har jeg mig hengivet; Thi uden dig er Verden mørk, Et Fængsel kun at kalde, Gift og Galde, Et øde Sted, en Ørk, Hvor tunge Taarer falde. 4 Men du er Sjælens trygge Havn Mod alle Modgangs Vinde, Ak lad mig i din Naades Favn Den rette Hvile finde! Din Kjærlighed som Sol i Vaar Den kolde Is fortære, Balsam være For mine Syndesaar, Som mig saa hart besvære! 5 Den samme trøste mig i Trang, I Sygdoms Tid mig styrke, Og naar jeg endelig en Gang Skal ind i Dødens Mørke, Da lad den lyse op min Sti, Og stande ved min Side, Med mig stride! Saa gaar jeg frelst og fri Fra hele Verdens Kvide.
