Wenn ich, o Schöpfer, deine Macht
Author: Christian Fürchtegott Gellert Appears in 93 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Wenn ich, o Schöpfer, deine Macht,
die Weisheit deiner Wege,
die Liebe, die für alle wacht,
anbetend überlege:
so weiß ich, von Bewundrung voll,
nicht, wie ich dich erheben soll,
mein Gott, mein Herr und Vater.
2 Mein Auge sieht, wohin es blickt,
die Wunder deiner Werke;
der Himmel, prächtig ausgeschmückt,
preist dich, du Gott der Stärke.
Wer hat die Sonn an ihm erhöht?
Wer kleidet sie mit Majestät?
Wer ruft dem Heer der Sterne?
3 Wer mißt dem Winde seinen Lauf?
Wer heißt die Himmel regnen?
Wer schließt den Schoß der Erde auf,
mit Vorrat uns zu segnen?
O Gott der Macht und Herrlichkeit,
Gott, deine Güte reicht so weit,
so weit die Wolken reichen.
4 Dich predigt Sonnenschein und Sturm
dich preist der Sand am Meere.
Bringt, ruft auch der geringste Wurm,
bringt meinem Schöpfer Ehre!
Mich, ruft der Baum in seiner Pracht,
mich, ruft die Saat, hat Gott gemacht;
bringt unserm Schöpfer Ehre!
5 Der Mensch, ein Leib, den deine Hand
so wunderbar bereitet,
der Mensch, ein Geist, den sein Verstand
dich zu erkennen leitet:
der Mensch, der Schöpfung Ruhm und Preis,
ist sich ein täglicher Beweis
von deiner Güt und Größe.
6 Erheb ihn ewig, o mein Geist,
erhebe seinen Namen;
Gott unser Vater sei gepreist,
und alle Welt sag Amen,
und alle Welt fürcht ihren Herrn
und hoff auf ihn und dien ihm gern.

The Lord ascendeth up on high
O risen Lord! O conquering King!
Author: J. H. Böhmer Meter: 8.7.8.7.4.4.8.8 Appears in 10 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O risen Lord! O conquering King!
O Life of all the living!
To-day that peace of Easter bring
Which comes but of Thy giving!
Once Death, our foe,
Had laid Thee low,
Now hast Thou rent his bonds in twain,
Now art Thou risen who once wast slain!
2 O that to know Thy victory
To us were inly granted,
And these cold hearts might catch from Thee
The glow of faith undaunted;
Thy quenchless light,
Thy glorious might
Still comfortless and lonely leave
The soul that cannot yet believe.
3 Then break through our hard hearts Thy way,
O Jesus, Lord of glory!
Kindle the lamp of faith today,
Teach us to sing before Thee
For joy at length,
That in Thy strength
We, too, may rise whom sin had slain,
And Thine eternal rest attain.
4 And when our tears for sin o'erflow,
Do Thou in love draw near us,
Thy precious gift of peace bestow,
Let Thy bright presence cheer us,
That so may we,
O Christ, from Thee
Drink in the life that cannot die,
And keep true Easter feasts on high. Topics: The Church Year First Sunday after Easter; The Church Year Easter Used With Tune: [O risen Lord! O conquering King!]
O risen Lord! O conquering King!

Lord Jesus Christ, You Have Prepared
Author: Samuel Kinner, 1603-68; Emanuel Cronenwett, 1841-1931 Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.8.7 Appears in 5 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Lord Jesus Christ, You have prepared
This feast for our salvation;
It is Your body and Your blood,
And at Your invitation
As weary souls, with sin oppressed,
We come to You for needed rest,
For comfort, and for pardon.
2 Although You did to Heav’n ascend,
Where angel hosts are dwelling,
And in Your presence they behold
Your glory, all excelling,
And though Your people shall not see
Your glory and Your majesty
Till dawns the judgment morning.
3 Yet, Savior, You are not confined
To any habitation;
But You are present even now
Here with Your congregation.
Firm as a rock this truth shall stand,
Unmoved by any daring hand
Or subtle craft and cunning.
4 We eat this bread and drink this cup,
Your precious Word believing
That Your true body and Your blood
Our lips are here receiving.
This word remains forever true,
All things are possible with You,
For You are Lord Almighty.
5 Though reason cannot understand,
Yet faith this truth embraces;
Your body, Lord, is even now
At once in many places.
I leave to You how this can be;
Your Word alone suffices me;
I trust its truth unfailing.
6 Lord, I believe what You have said;
Help me when doubts assail me.
Remember that I am but dust,
And let my faith not fail me.
Your Supper in this vale of tears
Refreshes me and stills my fears
And is my priceless treasure.
7 Grant that we worthily receive
Your Supper, Lord, our Savior,
And, truly grieving o’er our sins,
May prove by our behavior
That we are thankful for Your grace
And day by day may run our race,
In holiness increasing.
8 For Your consoling supper, Lord,
Be praised throughout all ages!
Preserve it, for in ev'ry place
The world against it rages.
Grant that this sacrament may be
A blessèd comfort unto me
When living and when dying.
