Beloved, "It is well!"

Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymnal #427 (1880) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Topics: Christian Life and Hope Lyrics: 1 Beloved, "It is well!" God’s ways are always right; And perfect love is o’er them all Though far above our sight. 2 Beloved, "It is well!" Though deep and sore the smart; The hand that wounds knows how to bind And heal the broken heart. 3 Beloved, "It is well!" Though sorrow clouds our way, ’Twill only make the joy more dear That ushers in the day. 4 Beloved, "It is well!" The path that Jesus trod, Though rough and strait and dark it be, Leads home to Heaven and God. Languages: English

Blessed are the meek and contrite

Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymnal #442 (1880) Topics: Christian Life and Hope Lyrics: 1 Blessed are the meek and contrite, Who in Jesus fall asleep; Blessed where the saints forever Their untiring vigils keep; They are from their labors resting; God has wiped away their tears; They are dwelling in the kingdom, Free from all their sins and fears. 2 Blessed are they, saith the Spirit, They are free from toil and care; They the kingdom do inherit, That their Savior doth prepare; They are free from tribulation, And their robes are pure and white; They have safely crossed the river, And have reached the realms of light. 3 Blessed shall they be forever, Endless is their peaceful rest, And the works they have accomplished Of their Lord are richly blest: Blessed is the faithful witness They have borne unto their Lord, While they reap abounding harvests, Promised in His faithful Word.

Asleep in Jesus! blessed sleep!

Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymnal #443 (1880) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Christian Life and Hope Lyrics: 1 Asleep in Jesus! blessèd sleep! From which none ever wakes to weep; A calm and undisturbed repose, Unbroken by the last of foes. 2 Asleep in Jesus! O how sweet To be for such a slumber meet! With holy confidence to sing That death hath lost its cruel sting. 3 Asleep in Jesus! peaceful rest! Whose waking is supremely blest; No fear, no woe, shall dim that hour That manifests the Savior's power. 4 Asleep in Jesus! O for me May such a blissful refuge be! Securely shall my ashes lie, The summons waiting from on high. 5 Asleep in Jesus! far from thee Thy kindred and their graves may be; But there is still a blessed sleep, From which none ever wakes to weep.

O Thou whose mercy guides my way

Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymnal #445 (1880) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Christian Life and Hope Lyrics: 1 O Thou whose mercy guides my way, Though now it seem severe, Forbid my unbelief to say, There is no mercy here! 2 O may I, Lord, desire the pain That comes in kindness down, Far more than sweetest earthly gain, Succeeded by Thy frown. 3 Then, though Thou bend my spirit low, Love only I shall see; The gracious hand that strikes the blow Was wounded once for me.

Gentle Shepherd, Thou hast stilled

Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymnal #447 (1880) Topics: Christian Life and Hope Lyrics: 1 Gentle Shepherd, Thou hast stilled Now Thy little lamb’s last weeping; Ah! how peaceful, pale and mild In its narrow bed ’tis sleeping! And no sigh of anguish sore Heaves that little bosom more. 2 In this world of care and pain, Lord, Thou wouldst no longer leave it; To the sunny heavenly plain Dost Thou now in joy receive it; Clothed in robes of spotless white, Now it dwells with Thee in light.

Mourn not ye, whose child hath found

Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymnal #448 (1880) Topics: Christian Life and Hope Lyrics: 1 Mourn not ye whose child hath found Purer skies and holier ground; Flowers of bright and pleasant hue, Free from thorns and fresh with dew. 2 Mourn not ye whose child hath fled From this region of the dead, To yon winged angel-band, To a better, fairer land. 3 Knowledge in that clime doth grow Free from weeds of toil and wo, Joys which mortals may not share; Mourn ye not, your child is there.

And will the Judge descend?

Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymnal #458 (1880) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Topics: Christian Life and Hope Lyrics: 1 And will the Judge descend? And must the dead arise? And not a single soul escape His all-discerning eyes! 2 And from His righteous lips Shall this dread sentence sound; And, through the num'rous guilty throng, Spread black despair around? 3 "Depart from me, accursed, "To everlasting flame, For rebel-angels first prepared, Where mercy never came." 4 How will my heart endure The terrors of that day, When earth and heav'n, before His face, Astonished, shrink away? 5 But ere that trumpet shakes The mansions of the dead, Hark, from the Gospel's cheering sound, What joyful tidings spread! 6 Ye sinners, seek His grace Whose wrath ye cannot bear; Fly to the shelter of His cross, And find salvation there.

That day of wrath, that dreadful day

Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymnal #459 (1880) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Christian Life and Hope Lyrics: 1 That day of wrath, that dreadful day, When heaven and earth shall pass away, What power shall be the sinner's stay?
