Jesus Lives, My Sure Defense

Author: Otto von Schwerin, 1616-1679; Catherine Winkworth, 1827-1878 Meter: 7.8.7.8.7.7 Appears in 60 hymnals Topics: Journey, Pilgrimage Lyrics: 1 Jesus lives, my sure defense and my everlasting Savior! Knowing this, my confidence rests in hope and will not waver, though the night of death be fraught still with many an anxious thought. 2 Jesus, my redeemer, lives; I too unto life shall waken. Bright the hope this promise gives; shall my courage, then, be shaken? Shall I fear then? Can the head rise and leave his members dead? 3 No, too closely am I bound unto him by hope forever; faith's strong hand the rock has found, grasped it, and will leave it never; even death now cannot part from its Lord the trusting heart. 4 I am flesh and must return unto dust, whence I am taken. But these eyes my Lord will know when from death I shall awaken, with my Savior to abide in his glory, at his side. 5 Then take comfort and rejoice, for his people Christ will cherish. Fear not, they will hear his voice; dying, they shall never perish; for the very grave is stirred when the trumpet's blast is heard. 6 Here on earth, then, let your hearts rise from longings vain and hollow. Seek what Christ your Lord imparts while you in his footsteps follow. As you now still wait to rise, set your hearts beyond the skies! Used With Tune: JESUS, MEINE ZUVERSICHT

Scripture: Psalm 23 Used With Tune: ST. COLUMBA

Now let us from this table rise

Author: Fred Kaan (1929-2009) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 42 hymnals Topics: Pilgrimage Lyrics: 1 Now let us from this table rise renewed in body, mind and soul; with Christ we die and rise again, his selfless love has made us whole. 2 With minds alert, upheld by grace, to spread the word in speech and deed, we follow in the steps of Christ, at one with all in hope and need. 3 To fill each human house with love, it is the sacrament of care; the work that Christ began to do we humbly pledge ourselves to share. 4 Then grant us grace, Companion-God, to choose again the pilgrim way and help us to accept with joy the challenge of tomorrow's day.
