So in darkest dispensations Doth my faithful Lord appear, With his richest consolations To reanimate and cheer, Sweet affliction, sweet affliction, thus to bring my Savior near, (Repeat previous line). 5.

Wearing there a weight of glory, Still the path I'll near forget But exulting cry it led me To my blessed Savior's feet. Sweet affliction, sweet affliction, which has brought to Jesus' feet.

Dass wir jetzund nicht vergebens Wirken und beisammen sein. Du verheissest ja den Deinen, Dass Du wollest Wunder tun, Und in ihnen willst erscheinen, Ach, erfüll´s, erfüll´s auch nun! 2 Herr, wir tragen Deinen Namen, Herr, wir sind auf Dich getauft, Und Du hast zu Deinem Samen Uns mit Deinem Blut erkauft. O, so lass uns Dich erkennen, Komm, erkläre selbst Dein Wort, Dass wir Dich recht Meister nennen, Und Dir dienen immerfort. 3 Bist Du mitten unter denen, Welche sich nach Deinem Heil Mit vereintem Seufzen sehnen, O, so sei auch unser Teil! Lehr uns singen, lehr uns beten, Hauch uns an mit Deinem Geist, Dass wir vor den Vater treten, Wie es kindlich ist und heisst. 4 Sammle die zerstreuten Sinnen, Stör die Flatterhaftigkeit, Lass uns Licht und Kraft gewinnen, Zu der Christen Wesenheit. O Du Haupt der rechten Glieder! Nimm auch uns zu solchen an; Bring das Abgewich'ne wieder Auf die frohe Himmelsbahn! 5 Gieb uns Augen, gieb uns Ohren, Gieb uns Herzen, die Dir gleich, Mach uns redlich neugeboren, Herr, zu Deinem Himmelreich! Ach ja! lehr uns Christen werden, Christen, die ein Licht der Welt, Christen, die ein Salz der Erden; Ach ja, Herr, wie's Dir gefällt!

Hail, Thou once despised Jesus!

Author: John Bakewell Appears in 631 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Hail, Thou once despised Jesus! Hail, Thou everlasting King! Thou didst suffer to release us, Thou didst free salvation bring. Hail, Thou agonizing Savior! Bearer of our sin and shame; By Thy merits we find favor, Life is given thro' Thy Name. 2 Paschal Lamb! by God appointed, All our sins on Thee were laid; By almighty Love anointed, Thou hast full atonement made: All Thy people are forgiven Through the virtue of Thy blood; Opened is the gate of heaven, Peace is made 'tween man and God. 3 Jesus, hail! enthroned in glory, There for ever to abide; All the heav'nly host adore Thee, Seated at Thy Father's side; There for sinners Thou art pleading, There Thou dost our place prepare; Ever for us interceding Till in glory we appear. 4 Glory, honor, power, and blessing Thou art worthy to receive; Loudest praises, without ceasing, Meet it is for us to give. When we join th'angelic spirits, In their sweetest, noblest lays, We will sing our Savior's merits-- Gladly chant Immanuel's praise.
