At the name of Jesus

Author: Caroline Maria Noel, 1817-1877 Hymnal: Complete Anglican Hymns Old and New #54b (2000) Meter: 6.5.6.5 D Topics: Years A, B, and C Ascension Day Lyrics: 1 At the name of Jesus ev'ry knee shall bow, ev'ry tongue confess him King of glory now: 'tis the Father's pleasure we should call him Lord, who, from the beginning, was the mighty Word. 2 At his voice creation sprang at once to sight, all the angel faces, all the hosts of light, thrones and dominations, stars upon their way, all the heavenly orders, in their great array. 3 Humbled for a season, to receive a name from the lips of sinners unto whom he came, faithfully he bore it spotless to the last, brought it back victorious, when from death he passed: 4 Bore it up triumphant with its human light, through all ranks of creatures, to the central height, to the throne of Godhead, to the Father's breast; filled it with the glory, of that perfect rest. 5 Name him, Christians, name him, with love strong as death, but with awe and wonder and with bated breath: he is God the Saviour, he is Christ the Lord, ever to be worshipped, trusted, and adored. 6 In your hearts enthrone him; there let him subdue all that is not holy, all that is not true: crown him as your Captain in temptation's hour; let his will enfold you in its light and power. 7 Surely, this Lord Jesus shall return again, with his Father's glory, with his angel train; for all wreaths of empire meet upon his brow, and our hearts confess him King of glory now.

Crown Him with Many Crowns

Author: Matthew Bridges; Godfrey Thring Hymnal: The Worshiping Church #92 (1990) Meter: 6.6.8.6 D Topics: Ascension Day Lyrics: 1 Crown him with many crowns, the Lamb upon his throne; hark! how the heavenly anthem drowns all music but its own; awake, my soul, and sing of him who died for thee, and hail him as thy matchless king through all eternity. 2 Crown him the Lord of life, who triumphed o'er the grave, and rose victorious in the strife for those he came to save; his glories now we sing who died and rose on high, who died eternal life to bring, and lives that death may die. 3 Crown him the Lord of love; behold his hands and side, rich wounds, yet visible above, in beauty glorified; no angels in the sky can fully bear that sight, but downward bends their burning eye at mysteries so bright. 4 Crown him the Lord of years, the potentate of time, creator of the rolling spheres, ineffably sublime. All hail, Redeemer, hail! for thou hast died for me; thy praise shall never, never fail throughout eternity. Scripture: John 5:12-13 Languages: English Tune Title: DIADEMATA

Our Lord has risen from the dead

Author: Charles Wesley Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran hymnal #95 (1908) Topics: Ascension Day Lyrics: 1 Our Lord is risen from the dead; Our Jesus is gone up on high; The pow'rs of hell are captive led-- Dragged to the portals of the sky. 2 There His triumphal chariot waits, And angels chant the solemn lay: "Lift up your heads, ye heav'nly gates! Ye everlasting doors, give way!" 3 Loose all your bars of massy light, And wide unfold the ethereal scene; He claims these mansions as His right: Receive the King of glory in. 4 "Who is this King of glory, who?" The Lord who all His foes o'ercame, The world, sin, death, and hell o'erthrew; And Jesus is the Conqu'ror’s name. Languages: English Tune Title: HURSLEY

We thank Thee , Jesus! dearest Friend

Author: Nicolaus Selnecker; Rev. Matthias Loy, D. D. Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran hymnal #96 (1908) Topics: Ascension Day Lyrics: 1 We thank Thee, Jesus! dearest Friend, That Thou didst into heav'n ascend; O blessed Savior! bid us live, And strength to soul and body give. 2 Now His disciples all rejoice, And sing His praise with cheerful voice: Come, let us grateful off'rings bring, Our Brother is our God and King. 3 Ascended to His throne on high, He yet to us is always nigh; True God and man He ever reigns, And infinite in power remains. 4 Above the heav'ns in glory raised, By angel hosts forever praised, All creatures His dominion own, He holds an everlasting throne. 5 He rules and reigns at God's right hand, And has all power at His command, All things are subject to His rod-- The Son of man and Son of God. 6 The world, and sin, and Satan fell He overthrew, with death and hell; Dispute who will His mighty reign, He still the Victor must remain. 7 The man who trusts in Him is blest, And finds in Him eternal rest; This world's allurements we despise, And fix on Christ alone our eyes. 8 He richest consolation gives, Who once was dead but ever lives; He captive led captivity, From bitter death to set us free. 9 With deepest joy our voice we raise, And sing our grateful song of praise; Our Brother, our own flesh and bone, Is God and King, our joy alone. 10 Through Him we heirs of heaven are made; O Brother, Christ! extend Thine aid, That we may ever trust in Thee, And live by faith eternally. 11 Amen, amen, O Lord! we cry; Do Thou, who art exalted high, In Thy pure faith preserve our hearts, And shield us from all Satan's darts. 12 Come, blessed Lord! to judgment come, And take us to our glorious home, That all our woes on earth may cease, And we may dwell in heavenly peace. 13 A glad Amen shall close our song, Our souls for rest in glory long, Where we with angel-hosts again Shall sing in nobler strains Amen!

Lord, on earth I dwell sad hearted

Author: Caspar Neumann; Catherine Winkworth Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran hymnal #97 (1908) Topics: Ascension Day Lyrics: 1 Lord, on earth I dwell sad-hearted, Here I oft must mourn and sigh; Wherefore hast Thou then departed, Why didst Thou ascend on high? Take me, take me hence with Thee, Or abide, Lord, still with me; Let Thy love and gifts be left, That I be not all bereft. 2 Leave Thy heart still inly near me, Take mine hence where Thou art gone, Open heav'n to me, and hear me, When to Thee I cry alone; When I cannot pray, O plead With Thy Father in my stead; Seated now at God's right hand, Help us here, Thy faithful band. 3 Worldly joys I cast behind me, Let me choose the better part, And though mortal chains yet bind me, Heav'nward tend my thoughts and heart; That my time through faith may be Ordered for eternity; Till we rise, all perils o'er, Whither Thou hast gone before. 4 Then return, the promise keeping, That was made to us of old; Raise the members that are sleeping, Gnaw'd of death, beneath the mould; Judge the evil world that deems Thy sure words but empty dreams; And for all our sorrows past Let us know Thy joy at last.

Th'atoning work is done

Author: Thomas Kelly Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran hymnal #98 (1908) Topics: Ascension Day Lyrics: 1 Th'atoning work is done, The Victim’s blood is shed, And Jesus now is gone His people’s cause to plead: He stands in heav'n their great High Priest, And bears their names upon His breast. 2 No temple made with hands His place of service is; In heav'n itself He stands, A heavenly priesthood His: In Him the shadows of the Law Are all fulfilled, and now withdraw. 3 And though awhile He be Hid from the eyes of men, His people look to see Their great High Priest again: In brightest glory He will come, And take His waiting people home.
