Lord Jesus Christ, with Us Abide

Author: N. Selnecker, 1532-92 Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymnary #511 (1996) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Confirmation: Perseverance Lyrics: 1 Lord Jesus Christ, with us abide, For round us falls the eventide; Nor let Thy Word, that heav'nly light, For us be ever veiled in night. 2 In these last days of sore distress Grant us, dear Lord, true steadfastness That pure we keep, till life is spent, Thy holy Word and Sacrament. 3 Lord Jesus, help, Thy Church uphold, For we are sluggish, thoughtless, cold. O prosper well Thy Word of grace And spread its truth in ev'ry place! 4 O keep us in Thy Word, we pray; The guile and rage of Satan stay! O may Thy mercy never cease! Give concord, patience, courage, peace. 5 O God, how sin's dread works abound! Throughout the earth no rest is found, And falsehood's spirit wide has spread, And error boldly rears its head. 6 And ever is there something new Devised to change Thy doctrine true; Lord Jesus! as Thou still dost reign, Those vain presumptuous minds restrain; 7 And as the cause and glory, Lord, Are Thine, not ours, to us afford Thy help and strength and constancy. And keep us ever true to Thee. 8 Thy Word shall fortify us hence, It is Thy Church's sure defense; O let in its pow'r confide, That we may seek no other guide. 9 O grant that in Thy holy Word We here may live and die, dear Lord; And when our journey endeth here, Receive us into glory there.

O happy band of pilgrims

Oh, happy, if ye hunger As Jesus hungered then! 3 The cross that Jesus carried He carried as your due: The crown that Jesus weareth He weareth it for you. 4 The faith by which ye see Him, The hope in which ye yearn, The love that through all troubles To Him alone will turn; 5 The trials that beset you, The sorrows ye endure, The manifold temptations That death alone can cure; 6 What are they, but His jewels Of right celestial worth? What are they but the ladder, Set up to heaven on earth? 7 O happy band of pilgrims, Look upward to the skies, Where such a light affliction Shall win so great a prize! Amen.

Jesus, I My Cross Have Taken

Author: Henry F. Lyte Hymnal: Trinity Psalter Hymnal #513 (2018) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Topics: Perseverance Lyrics: 1 Jesus, I my cross have taken, all to leave and follow thee; destitute, despised, forsaken, thou from hence my all shalt be. Perish ev'ry fond ambition, all I've sought or hoped or known; yet how rich is my condition, God and heav'n are still my own. 2 Let the world despise and leave me, they have left my Savior too; human hearts and looks deceive me; thou art not, like man, untrue; and, while thou shalt smile upon me, God of wisdom, love, and might, foes may hate and friends may shun me; show thy face, and all is bright. 3 Man may trouble and distress me, 'twill but drive me to thy breast; life with trials hard may press me, heav'n will bring me sweeter rest. O 'tis not in grief to harm me while thy love is left to me; O 'twere not in joy to charm me, were that joy unmixed with thee. 4 Take, my soul, thy full salvation, rise o'er sin and fear and care; joy to find in ev'ry station something still to do or bear; think what Spirit dwells within thee, what a Father's smile is thine, what a Savior died to win thee: child of heav'n, shouldst thou repine? 5 Hasten on from grace to glory, armed by faith and winged by prayer; heav'n's eternal day's before thee, God's own hand shall guide thee there. Soon shall close thy earthly mission, swift shall pass thy pilgrim days; hope soon change to glad fruition, faith to sight, and prayer to praise.

Our Lord and God, O Bless This Day

Døving, 1867-1937 Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymnary #514 (1996) Meter: 8.7.8.7.6.6.6.6.7 Topics: Confirmation: Perseverance Lyrics: 1 Our Lord and God, O bless this day And hear us, we implore Thee; None of Thy children turn away Who now appear before Thee. We come before Thy face And pray: Let Thy rich grace Descend from heav'n above In all Thy wondrous love And keep us by Thy Spirit. 2 O bless Thy Word to all the young; Let them, Thy truth possessing, Bear witness true with heart and tongue, Their faith and ours confessing. From mother's arms Thy grace With love did them embrace; Baptized into Thy name, As Thine Thou didst them claim. O Lord, as Thine now own them! 3 When they their vows today renew, Accept them with Thy favor; And when they promise to be true, May they forget it never! But they are weak and frail When Satan's hosts assail; O arm them with Thy might And grant that in the fight They unto death be faithful! 4 And when they leave their childhood home, When Satan comes alluring, May their baptismal grace become A refuge reassuring! Blest they who then can say: "God's cov'nant stands for aye." They ne'er shall be undone Who trusts in God alone-- God is their mighty Father! Languages: English

O Love That Wilt Not Let Me Go

Author: George Matheson Hymnal: Trinity Psalter Hymnal #514 (2018) Meter: 8.8.8.8.6 Topics: Perseverance Lyrics: 1 O Love that wilt not let me go, I rest my weary soul in thee; I give thee back the life I owe, that in thine ocean depths its flow may richer, fuller be. 2 O Light that follow'st all my way, I yield my flick'ring torch to thee; my heart restores its borrowed ray, that in thy sunshine's blaze its day may brighter, fairer be. 3 O Joy that seekest me through pain, I cannot close my heart to thee; I trace the rainbow thro' the rain, and feel the promise is not vain that morn shall tearless be. 4 O Cross that liftest up my head, I dare not ask to fly from thee; I lay in dust life's glory dead, and from the ground there blossoms red, life that shall endless be.
