Lord, and whither shall we go?

Author: Robert Montgomery Hymnal: Church Book #226 (1890) Topics: Advent, Third Sunday Lyrics: 1 Lord, and whither shall we go? Thou alone hast words of life! In our stormy griefs below, Who, but Thou, can heal the strife Sin and sorrow round us being, In life's vale while wandering? 2 Blessed Christ! embodied Word! Thou alone art Life and Light: Saints who have Thy truth preferred Walk in peace, and worship right: Thou alone to sin canst say, "I am Love, the Living Way." 3 Sun of Grace, O ever shine Round our paths, where'er they lead! Midnight feels a ray divine Breaking through the darkest need, If we hear, when most dismayed, "It is I, be not afraid!" 4 Pardon, peace, and purity, Gifts without, and grace within, Love and light which set us free From the curse and chain of sin-- These, Emmanuel, Thou canst give, While upon Thy words we live. 5 Not a want, Thou canst not fill; Not a fear, Thou wilt not tame; If, indeed, repentance will Rest upon Thy glorious Name, High o'er every guilt and grave Shall Redemption's banner wave! 6 Saviour, be our Polar Star, Shaded by no sinful night; Shed upon us from afar Living beams of holy light: When we reach our radiant home, We shall know the Way we come.

Frisk op, min Sjæl, forsage ei

Hymnal: Psalmebog, udgiven af Synoden for den norske evangelisk-lutherske Kirke i Amerika (2nd ed.) #63 (1890) Topics: Third Sunday in Advent Lyrics: 1 Frisk op, min Sjæl, forsage ei, Gud vil sig nu forbarme, At hjælpe dig siger han ei nei, Han trøster vel de Arme! Er Trængslen haard, I Rosens Gaard Kan man ei altid dandse. Hvo paa Gud tror, Han tryggelig bor, Og taber ei sin Skandse. 2 Det haver Joseph, den fromme Mand, Saa ofte vel erfaret, Om Job og David læse kan, Hvor vel de blev bevaret: Dem hjalp ret Gud Af Nøden ud, Fra Fiendens Haand og Rænker. Hvo paa Gud tror, Han tryggelig bor Hvod Ondt end Mange tænker. 3 Trods dig, du Djævel og Verden med, Som vil mit Hjerte forføre! Paa Gud jeg haaber til Salighed, Min Bøn vil han vel høre; Thi han af Naad' Hjælp, Trøst og Raad Udi sin Søn har lovet, Hvo paa Gud tror, Han tryggelig bor Det er vel ofte prøvet. 4 Om onde folk end spotte mig Og vil mig slet foragte, Saa er dog Gud min Hjælp saa rig, Den Spot vil jeg ei agte; Skytsherre min Er Gud saa sin, Han er mit Skjold og Klippe. Hvo paa Gud tror, Han tryggelig bor, Hans Hjælp kan aldrig glippe. 5 Derfor dig glæd, min kjære Sjæl, Det skal slet ikke forsage! Du Djævel, Synd og Død, farvel! Trods dig med al din Plage! Thi Jesus Christ, Guds Søn, forvist Har eder overvundet. Hvo paa Gud tror, Han tryggelig bor, Han har os Salighed fundet. 6 Han aldrig Nogen har forladt, Som skikker sig efter hans Vilje, Som hannem i Troen har ret sat, I Korset sig taalig mon stille. Tro, Taalighed, Haab, Kjærlighed, Giver os Gud af sin Naade. Hvo paa Gud tror, Han tryggelig bor, Og frelses af Sorg og Vaade. 7 Hvo som sin Lid til Mennesker slaar Og ei til Gud vor Herre Han er som Avner og slet forgaar, Og kommer aldrig til Ære: Af Nøden Gud Hjælper Sine ud I Jesu Navn Allesammen. Hvo paa Gud tror, Han tryggelig bor, Og salig bliver, Amen. Languages: Norwegian

Hymnal: Psalmebog, udgiven af Synoden for den norske evangelisk-lutherske Kirke i Amerika (2nd ed.) #64 (1890) Topics: Third Sunday in Advent Lyrics: 1 Bryd frem, mit Hjertes Trang at lindre, O arme Synd'res Dag og Sol! Lad intet Forhæng mere hindre Min Indgang til vor Naadestol, Lad den dog ikke gaa i Blinde, Som vil saa gjerne Lyset finde. 2 Du ene var og er og bliver Den arme Verdens rige Trøst, Det Vidnesbyrd Enhver dig giver, Som kjender dig, vor Hjertens Lyst! Saa stor er ingen Nød at finde, Som ikke for din Kraft maa svinde. 3 Du gjør det, at de Døve høre, De Blinde faar sit Syn igjen, Den Halte friske Trin kan gjøre, Spedalskhed viger for dig hen, De Døde har du Aand og Livet Og alle Andre Lædske givet. 4 Har du nu før saa vældig øvet Dit Herredømmes store Magt, Hvi gaar jeg da saa høit bedrøvet? O Jesu! tag min Sjæl iagt; Vis, at du er endnu den Samme, Som Satans Vælde gjør til Skamme. 5 Du ser, hvordan vi gaa i Blinde, Og sansse ei vor Sjælesag, O, lad dog Naadens Lys oprinde, Og gjør det i mit Hjerte Dag, At jeg grandgivelig kan kjende Den Vei, jeg gaar, og Veiens Ende. 6 Oplad og gjennembor mit Øre, Blandt dine Tjenere at staa, Som uophørlig gjerne gjøre, Hvad du ved Ordet peger paa, Ei aldrig andet foretage, End hvad min Herre kan behage. 7 Jeg halter, snubler, gaar i Mørke, Og støder an ved Lidt og Stort, Ak, lad din Aand og store Styrke Bekræfte mig og hjælpe fort, Ret frem og faste Trin at gjøre, Og aldrig lade mig forføre. 8 O, hva kan læge og fordrive Den Synde-sygdom ond og led? Det kan du, Jesu! kom at blive Mig Visdom bliv mig Hellighed! Din Død og Lærdom kan alene Mod den fortvilte Jammer tjene. 9 Død er min Sjæl til alt det Gode, Slet intet ved og mindre kan, O, lad din Kraft den Skade bode, Giv saadan Vilje og Forstand, At jeg et dygtigt Træ maa være, Som dig utallig Frugt kan bære. 10 Jeg fattig er og fuld af Plage, O naaderige Jesu! kom, Og lad mit arme Hjerte smage Dit søde Evangelium, At jeg endogsaa her i Live Maa derved rig og salig blive.

Skal dig tilrede være; Du mig forløste, at jeg er din, Des bør dig Pris og Ære; Det lærer sig selv, Du under os vel, Paa Korset for os slogs du ihjel, Vore Synder vilde du bære. 2 Den Kjærlighed, du haver til mig, Har os tilsammenbundet, Nu kommer den Djævel med sin Svig, Han siger, han vil have vundet; Du est dog ei Den falske Vei, Jeg ved det vist, du sviger mig ei, Lad mig din Hjælp befinde! 3 Elendig, Herre! da gjør du mig, Om du vil fra mig skilles, Mens jeg forlader mig paa dig, Mit Hjertes Angst da stilles. O Hjertens Tvang, Og Verdens Modgang, Baade Nat og Dag gjøres mig saa lang, De agte min Glæde at spilde. 4 Du lover mig godt med Hjerte og Mund Det holder du visselige, At være mig huld i allenstund, Du vil mig aldrig svige; Du skuer dog selv Min ganske Sjæl Hvad heller det gaar mig ilde eller vel, Fra dig vil jeg ei vige. 5 Nu er der ingen i Verden til, Min Sorrig kan fordrive, Foruden Gud, naar han saa vil, Han kan mig Trøsten give. O Jesus sød, Hjælp mig af Nød! Du taalte for mig den bitre Død, Thi lad mig salig blive! Languages: Norwegian
