While with Ceaseless Course the Sun

Author: John Newton Hymnal: Hymns and Devotions for Daily Worship #31 (2024) Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Lyrics: 1. While with ceaseless course the sun Hasted thru' the former year, Many souls their race have run, Never more to meet us here: Fixed in an eternal state, They have done with all below; We a little longer wait, But how little, none can know. 2. As the winged arrow flies Speedily the mark to find, As the ligh'tning from the skies Darts and leaves no trace behind; Swiftly thus our fleeting days Bear us down life’s rapid stream; Upward, Lord, our spirits raise; All below is but a dream. 3. Thanks for mercies past receive; Pardon of our sins renew; Teach us henceforth how to live, With eternity in view. Bless thy word to young and old, Fill us with a Savior's love; And when life’s short tale is told, May we dwell with thee above.

Saviour, when in dust to Thee

Author: Robert Grant Hymnal: Common Service Book of the Lutheran Church #82b (1917) Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Lyrics: 1 Saviour, when in dust to Thee Low we bow th'adoring knee; When, repentant, to the skies, Scarce we lift our weeping eyes; O, by all Thy pains and woe Suffered once for man below, Bending from Thy throne on high, Hear our solemn litany! 2 By Thy helpless infant years, By Thy life of want and tears, By Thy days of sore distress In the savage wilderness, By the dread mysterious hour Of th'insulting tempter's power;, Turn, O turn, a favoring eye, Hear our solemn litany! 3 By thine hour of dire despair, By thine agony of prayer; By the Cross, the nail, the thorn, Piercing spear, and torturing scorn; By the gloom that veiled the skies O'er the dreadful Sacrifice; Listen to our humble sigh; Hear our solemn litany! 4 By Thy deep expiring groan; By the sad sepulchral stone: By the vault whose dark abode Held in vain the rising God; O, from earth to heaven restored, Mighty, re-ascended Lord, Listen, listen to the cry Of our solemn litany!

Lord, Thy Death and Passion give

Author: Johann Heermann; Catherin Winkworth Hymnal: Common Service Book of the Lutheran Church #95 (1917) Lyrics: 1 Lord, Thy Death and Passion give Strength and comfort in my need. Every hour while here I live On Thy love my soul shall feed. Thou didst death for me endure, And I fly all thoughts impure; Thinking on Thy bitter pains, Hushed in prayer my heart remains. 2 Thy blest Cross hath power to heal All the wounds of sin and strife. Lost in Thee, my heart doth feel Sudden warmth and nobler life. In my saddest, darkest grief, Let Thy sweetness bring relief. Thou Who camest but to save, Thou Who fearest not the grave! 3 Lord, in Thee I place my trust, Thou art my Defense and Tower; Death Thou treadest in the dust, O'er my soul he hath no power. That I may have part in Thee, Help and save and comfort me; Give me, of Thy grace and might, Resurrection, life, and light! 4 Fount of good, within me dwell! For the peace Thy presence sheds Keeps us safe in conflict fell, Charms the pain from dying beds. Hide me safe within Thine arm, Where no foe can hurt or harm; Whoso, Lord, in Thee doth rest, He hath conquered, he is blest. Amen.

Author: John Newton Hymnal: The Lutheran Hymnal #113 (1941) Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Lyrics: 1 While with ceaseless course the sun Hasted thro' the dying year, Many souls their race have run, Never more to meet us here; Fixed in an eternal state, They have done with all below.

Upward, Lord, our spirits raise; All below is but a dream. 3 Thanks for mercies past receive, Pardon, Lord, our sins renew; Teach us henceforth how to live With eternity in view. Bless Thy Word to young and old, Fill us with a Savior's love; And when life's short tale is told, May we dwell with Thee above. Amen.
