Within Thy house will I abide; my refuge sure, whate'er betide, Thy shelt'ring wings shall be. 3 For Thou, O God, my vows hast heard, on me the heritage conferred of those that fear Thy Name; a blest anointing Thou dost give, and Thou wilt make me ever live Thy praises to proclaim. 4 Before Thy face shall I abide; O God, Thy truth and grace provide to guard me in the way; so I will make Thy praises known, and, humbly blending at Thy throne, my vows will daily pay.

Upon the Cross Extended

Author: Paul Gerhardt, 1607-1676; John Kelly, 1833-1890 Meter: 7.7.6.7.7.8 Appears in 11 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Upon the cross extended, see, world, your Lord suspended; your Savior yields his breath. The Prince of life from heaven himself has freely given to shame and blows and bitter death. 2 Who is it, Lord, that bruised you? Who has so sore abused you and caused you all your woe? We all must make confession of sin and dire transgression while you no ways of evil know. 3 I caused your grief and sighing by evils multiplying as countless as the sands. I caused the woes unnumbered with which your soul is cumbered, your sorrows raised by wicked hands. 4 Your soul in griefs unbounded, your head with thorns surrounded, you died to ransom me. The cross for me enduring, the crown for me securing, you healed my wounds and set me free. 5 Your cross I place before me, its saving pow'r restore me, sustain me in the test. It will, when life is ending, be guiding and attending my way to your eternal rest. Topics: Jesus' Passion Scripture: Isaiah 53:4-9 Used With Tune: O WELT, ICH MUSS DICH LASSEN
