Lord Jesu, Fountain of my Life

Hymnal: Psalmodia Germanica #195 (1732) Topics: Death and Resurrection Lyrics: I. Lord Jesu, Fountain of my Life, Sole comfort in this Stage of Strive, I'm trav'lling by this worldly Inn, Tir'd with the Load of Self and Sin. II. The Journey's hard; the Path is streight, Which leads to blessed SION"S Gate; The Land I come form, and had lost, But am regaining at thy Cost. III. My Heart oft trembles by the Way. The Flesh is frail, and runs astray: The longing spirit cries in me, Lord, haste and bring me home to Thee. IV. Support me by thy bitter Death, When I'm to yield my dying Breath; Thy Blood refresh my Soul within; Thy Bonds break all the Chains of Sin. V. The Blows and Stripes that fell on thee Heal up the Wounds of Sin in me. Thy great Reproach, thy shameful Crown Rejoice my Heart before thy Throne. VI. Thy Thirst and nauseous Draught of Gall Refresh my soul in ev'ry Thrall; Thine Agony, thy dying Breath, Redeem me from eternal Death. VII. Thy Wounds be to my Soul, while here, A Refuge sure, in ev'ry Fear; In them I'll seek a sheltring Place, When Satan hath my Soul in Chace. VIII. Unto my Heart, when Speech I want, The Utt'rance of thy Spirit grant: And grant, my Soul to Heav'n may rise, When Death in Darkness seals my Eyes. IX. Thy dying Breathings be my Light, When Death brings on its sable Night: Grant me a calm and decent End; And save me when my Head I bend. X. Thy Cross shall be my Staff in Life; Thy Grave, my Place of Rest from Strife: Thy Napkin and thy winding Sheet Shall bind my head, Breast, Hands and Feet. XI. The Prints thy sacred Limbs receiv'd Assure my Heart, that I am sav'd. Through th' Op'ning of thy Side convey My Soul to thine eternal Day. XII. Thy Farewell-Words I'll make my own; Thy Death did for my Sins attone. Ope' wide the Gates of Heav'nly Grace, When I conclude my Christian-Race. XIII. When I revive, at thy Command, O place me, Lord, at thy right Hand, Beyond the Fate which dooms thy Foes To languish in eternal Woes. XIV. Then, Lord, thine Image quite renew Within my Soul and Body too; And make it radiant as thy own, More radiant than the brightest Sun. X. O, what amazing Love and Joy Shall mine and Angels' Tongues employ! How shall we sing, with all thy Race, The blest Enjoyment of thy Face. Languages: English

Death! thy sting is gone forever. He, who deigned for me to die, lives the bands of death to sever.

God has promised: be it must; Jesus is my Hope and Trust. 3 Jesus lives, I know full well, naught from him my heart can sever, life nor death nor power of hell, joy nor grief henceforth forever. None of all his saints is lost; Jesus is my Hope and Trust. Jesus is my hope and trust. 4 Jesus lives and death is now but my entrance into glory. Courage then, my soul, for thou hast a crown of life before thee; thou shalt find thy hopes were just; Jesus is the Christian's Trust. Scripture: John 14:3 Languages: English Tune Title: ZUVERSICHT

Join all the names of love and power

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Psalms and Hymns of Dr. Watts #269 (1835) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Christ his death and resurrection; Death and resurrection of Christ; Death and sufferings of Christ; Christ his obedience and death Lyrics: Join all the names of love and power That ever men or angels bore, All are too mean to speak his worth, Or set lmmannel's glory forth. But O what condescending ways He takes to teach his heav'nly grace My eyes with joy and wonder see What forms of love he bears for me. [The Angel of the cov'nant stands With his commission in his hands, Sent from his Father's milder throne, To make the great salvation known.] [Great Prophet! let me bless thy name; By thee the joyful tidings came Of wrath appeased, of sins forgiv'n, Of hell subdued, and peace with heav'u.] [My bright Example and my Guide, I would be walking near thy side; O let me never run astray, Nor follow the forbidden way!] [I love my Shepherd, he shall keep My wand'ring soul among his sheep; He feeds his flock, he calls their names, And in his bosom bears the lambs.] [My Surety undertakes my cause, Answering his Father's broken laws: Behold my soul at freedom set, My Surety paid the dreadful debt.] [Jesus, my great High Priest, has died; I seek no sacrifice beside; His blood did once for all atone, And now it pleads before the throne.] [My Advocate appears on high, The Father lays his thunder by; Not all that earth or hell can say Shall turn my Father's heart away.] [My Lord, my Conqueror, and my King! Thy sceptre and thy sword I sing; Thine is the vict'ry, and I sit A joyful subject at thy feet.] [Aspire, my soul, to glorious deeds, The Captain of salvation leads; March on, nor fear to win the day, Though death and hell obstruct the way.] [Should death, and hell, and powers unknown, Put all their forms of mischief on, I shall be safe; for Christ displays Salvation in more sovereign ways.] Scripture: Psalm 69 Languages: English

Join all the glorious names

But O what gentle terms, What condescending ways, Doth our Redeemer use To teach his heav'nly grace! Mine eyes with joy and wonder see What forms of love he bears for me. [Arrayed in mortal flesh, He like an angel stands, And holds the promises And pardons in his hands; Commissioned from his Father's throne To make his grace to mortals known.] [Great Prophet of my God, My tongue would bless thy name; By thee the joyful news Of our salvation came: The joyful news of sins forgiv'n, Of hell subdued, and peace with heav'n.] [Be thou my Counsellor, My Pattern, and my Guide; And through this desert land Still keep me near thy side: O let my feet ne'er run astray, Nor rove, nor seek the crooked way.] [I love my Shepherd's voice, His watchful eyes shall keep My wand'ring soul among The thousands of his sheep: He feeds his flock, he calls their names, His bosom bears the tender lambs.] [To this dear Surety's hand Will I commit my cause; He answers and fulfils His Father's broken laws: Behold my soul at freedom set! My Surety paid the dreadful debt.] [Jesus, my great High Priest, Offered his blood, and died; My guilty conscience seeks No sacrifice beside: His powerful blood did once atone, And now it pleads before the throne.] [My Advocate appears For my defence on high; The Father bows his ears, And lays his thunder by: Not all that hell or sin can say Shall turn his heart, his love away.] [My dear Almighty Lord, My Conqueror and my King! Thy sceptre and thy sword, Thy reigning grace I sing: Thine is the power; behold, I sit In willing bonds before thy feet.] [Now let my soul arise, And tread the tempter down; My Captain leads me forth To conquest and a crown: A feeble saint shall win the day, Though death and hell obstruct the way.] Should all the hosts of death, And powers of hell unknown, Put their most dreadful forms Of rage and mischief on, I shall be safe, for Christ displays Superior power, and guardian grace.
