Savior, and can it be

Hymnal: Hymns Ancient and Modern (Standard ed.) #718 (1924) Meter: 6.6.7.7.7.7 Languages: English

Author: Catherine Winkworth, 1827-78 Hymnal: Lutheran Service Book #745 (2006) Meter: 6.6.7.7.7.7 Lyrics: 1 In God, my faithful God, I trust when dark my road; Great woes may overtake me, Yet He will not forsake me. My troubles He can alter; His hand lets nothing falter. 2 My sins fill me with care, Yet I will not despair. I build on Christ, who loves me; From this rock nothing moves me. To Him I will surrender, To Him, my soul's defender. 3 If death my portion be, It brings great gain to me; It speeds my life's endeavor To live with Christ forever. He gives me joy in sorrow, Come death now or tomorrow. 4 O Jesus Christ, my Lord, So meek in deed and word, You suffered death to save us Because Your love would have us Be heirs of heav'nly gladness When ends this life of sadness. 5 "So be it," then, I say With all my heart each day. Dear Lord, we all adore You, We sing for joy before You. Guide us while here we wander Until we praise You yonder. Scripture: Psalm 25 Languages: English Tune Title: AUF MEINEN LIEBEN GOTT

Eternal Spirit, Come

Author: Charles Wesley Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #1367 Meter: 6.6.7.7.7.7 Lyrics: 1. Eternal Spirit, come Into Thy meanest home; From Thy high and holy place, Where Thou dost in glory reign, Stoop in condescending grace Stoop to the poor heart of man. 2. For Thee our hearts we lift, And wait the heavenly gift, Giver, Lord, of life divine, To our dying souls appear; Grant the grace for which we pine, Give Thyself, the Comforter. 3. Our ruined souls repair, And fix Thy mansion there; Claim us for Thy constant shrine, All Thy glorious self reveal; Life, and power, and love divine, God in us for ever dwell.

Hail, Co-Essential Three

Author: Charles Wesley Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #2094 Meter: 6.6.7.7.7.7 Lyrics: 1. Hail, co-essential Three, In mystic Unity! Father, Son, and Spirit, hail! God by Heaven and earth adored, God incomprehensible; One supreme, almighty Lord, One supreme, almighty Lord. 2. Thou sittest on the throne, Plurality in One; Saints behold Thine open face, Bright, insufferably bright; Angels tremble as they gaze, Sink into a sea of light, Sink into a sea of light. 3. Ah! when shall we increase Their heavenly ecstasies? Chant, like them, the Lord Most High, Fall like them who dare not move; Holy, holy, holy, cry, Breathe the praise of silent love? Breathe the praise of silent love? 4. Come, Father, in the Son And in the Spirit down; Glorious Triune Majesty, God through endless ages blest, Make us meet Thy face to see, Then receive us to Thy breast; Then receive us to Thy breast.

How Weak the Thoughts, and Vain

Author: Charles Wesley; John Wesley Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #2592 Meter: 6.6.7.7.7.7 Lyrics: 1. How weak the thoughts, and vain, Of self-deluding men! Men who, fixed to earth alone, Think their houses shall endure, Fondly call their lands their own, To their distant heirs secure. 2. How happy then are we, Who build, O Lord, on Thee; What can our foundation shock? Though the shattered earth remove, Stands our city on a rock, On the Rock of heavenly love. 3. A house we call our own Which cannot be o’erthrown; In the general ruin sure, Storms and earthquakes it defies; Built immovably secure, Built eternal in the skies. 4. High on Immanuel’s land We see the fabric stand: From a tottering world remove To our steadfast mansion there; Our inheritance above Cannot pass from heir to heir. 5. Those amaranthine bowers (Unalienably ours) Bloom, our infinite reward, Rise, our permanent abode; From the founded world prepared; Purchased by the blood of God. 6. O might we quickly find The place for us designed; See the long-expected day Of our full redemption here; Let the shadows flee away, Let the new-made world appear! 7. High on Thy great white throne, O King of saints, come down! In the new Jerusalem Now triumphantly descend; Let the final trump proclaim Joys begun which ne’er shall end!

In God, My Faithful God

Author: Sigismund Weingärtner; Catherine Winkworth Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #2977 Meter: 6.6.7.7.7.7 Lyrics: 1. In God, my faithful God, I trust when dark my road; Though many woes o’ertake me, Yet He will not forsake me; His love it is doth send them, And when ’tis best will end them. 2. My sins assail me sore, But I despair no more; I build on Christ who loves me, From this Rock nothing moves me, Since I can all surrender To Him, my soul’s Defender. 3. If death my portion be, Then death is gain to me, And Christ my Life for ever, From whom death cannot sever; Come when it may, He’ll shield me, To Him I wholly yield me. 4. Ah, Jesus Christ, my Lord, So meek in deed and word, Thou diedst once to save us, Because Thou fain wouldst have us After earth’s life of sadness Heirs of Thy heavenly gladness. 5. So be it, then I say, With all my heart each day; Guide us while here we wander, Till safely landed yonder, We too, dear Lord, adore Thee, And sing for joy before Thee.

Sinners, Dismiss Your Fear

Author: Charles Wesley Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #5951 Meter: 6.6.7.7.7.7 Lyrics: 1. Sinners, dismiss your fear, The joyful tidings hear! This the word that Jesus said, O believe, and feel it true; Christ is risen from the dead, Lives the Lord who died for you! 2. Haste, to His tomb repair, And see the tokens there; See the place where Jesus lay, Mark the burial cloths He wore; Angels near His relics stay, Guards of Him who dies no more. 3. Why then art thou cast down, Thou poor afflicted one? Full of doubts, and griefs, and fears, Look into that open grave! Died He not to dry thy tears? Rose He not thy soul to save? 4. Know’st thou not where to find The Savior of mankind? He hath borne Himself away, He from death Himself hath freed, He on the third glorious day, Rose triumphant from the dead. 5. To purge thy guilty stain He died, and rose again; Wherefore dost thou weep and mourn? Sinner, lift thine heart and eye, Turn thee, to thy Jesus turn, See thy loving Savior nigh. 6. He comes His own to claim, He calls thee by thy name: Drooping soul, rejoice, rejoice, See Him there to life restored! Mary—know thy Savior’s voice, Hear it, and reply, My Lord.
