If God Himself Be for Me

Author: Richard Massie, 1800-1887; Paul Gerhardt, 1607-1675 Hymnal: Lutheran Book of Worship #454 (1978) Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.6.7.6 Topics: Trust, Guidance; Pentecost 12; Pentecost 15 (Year A); Comfort and Rest; Justification; Sorrow; Trust, Guidance Lyrics: 1 If God himself be for me, I may a host defy; For when I pray, before me My foes, confounded, fly. If Christ, my head and master, Befriend me from above, What foe or what disaster Can drive me from his love? 2 I build on this foundation, That Jesus and his blood Alone are my salvation, The true, eternal good. Without him all that pleases Will vain and empty prove. The gifts I have from Jesus Alone are worth my love. 3 Christ Jesus is my splendor, My sun, my light, alone; Were he not my defender Before God’s awesome throne, I never should find favor And mercy in his sight, But be destroyed forever As darkness by the light. 4 For joy my heart is ringing; All sorrow disappears; And full of mirth and singing, It wipes away all tears. The sun that cheers my spirit Is Jesus Christ, my king; The heav'n I shall inherit Makes me rejoice and sing. Languages: English Tune Title: IST GOTT FÜR MICH

And he is mine forever. 2 Where streams of living water flow, My ransomed soul he leadeth And, where the verdant pastures grow, With food celestial feedeth. 3 Perverse and foolish oft I strayed, But yet in love he sought me, And on his shoulder gently laid, And home, rejoicing, brought me. 4 In death's dark vale I fear no ill, With thee, dear Lord, beside me, Thy rod and staff my comfort still; Thy cross before to guide me. 5 Thou spreadst a table in my sight; Thine unction grace bestoweth; And oh, what transport of delight From thy pure chalice floweth! 6 And so, through all the length of days, Thy goodness faileth never. Good Shepherd, may I sing thy praise Within thy house forever. Languages: English Tune Title: ST. COLUMBA
