Awake, my soul, in joyful lays

Author: M. Medley Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 1,061 hymnals Topics: The Church Year Tenth Sunday after Trinity Lyrics: 1 Awake, my soul, in joyful lays And sing Thy great Redeemer’s praise; He justly claims a song from thee, His lovingkindness, O how free! 2 He saw me ruined in the fall, Yet loved me notwithstanding all; And saved me from my lost estate, His lovingkindness, O how great! 3 Though numerous hosts of mighty foes; Though earth and hell my way oppose, He safely leads my soul along. His lovingkindness, O how strong! 4 When trouble, like a gloomy cloud, Has gathered thick and thundered loud, He near my soul has always stood, His lovingkindness, O how good! 5 Often I feel my sinful heart, Prone from my Savior to depart; But though I oft have Him forgot, His lovingkindness changes not. 6 Soon shall I pass the gloomy vale, Soon all my mortal powers must fail; O may my last expiring breath His lovingkindness praise in death.

Thine honor rescue, righteous Lord!

Author: Johann Heermann; Rev. Matthias Loy, D. D. Appears in 15 hymnals Topics: Tenth Sunday after Trinity Lyrics: 1 Thine honor rescue, righteous Lord! Hear Zion’s sighs and help afford; Destroy the wiles of potent foes, Who now Thy Word and truth oppose. 2 Their craft and vaunting pomp are great; High beat their hearts, with power elate; Our dearest hopes they but deride, And deem us nothing in their pride. 3 Forgive, O Lord! our sins forgive, Show us Thy face and let us live: Convince Thy foes throughout the land That godless counsels shall not stand. 4 Preserve Thy little flock in peace, Nor let Thy boundless mercy cease; Let it to all the world appear Thy holy Church indeed is here. 5 That Thou art with us, loud proclaim Who put'st each enemy to shame; Dost all their haughtiness suppress, And help Thine own in their distress.

O Helligaand

Author: Bertel Ægidius Appears in 6 hymnals Topics: Tenth Sunday after Trinity Sunday Lyrics: 1 O Helligaand, Med Naadens Haand Mit kolde Hjerte røre! Udgyde dig Nu over mig Til Andagt mig at føre! 2 Uden dig kan Slet ingen Mand En Herre Kristus kalde; Er ei dit Lys I Hjertets Hus, Do maa al Trøst bortfalde. 3 Min Daabes Pagt Ved Naadens Magt Forny udi mit Hjerte! Giv retvis Bod, Med Kristi Blod Løs mig af Syndens Smerte. 4 Den onde Aand Ved Syndens Baand Vil sigte mig som Hvede, Imod hans Magt Tag mig i Agt, Lær mig at tro og bede! 5 Ved Ordets Skin Styr mine Trin Og til alt Godt mig drage! Bevar dit Barn Fra Syndens Garn, Og lad mig dig behage! 6 Dit Rige Fred, Retfærdighed Og Glæde i sig haver, Ved Ordets tugt Giv mig din Frugt, De aandelige Gaver! 7 Giv Bønnens flid, Giv god tillid, Giv Kjærlighed og Naade! Giv Sjælero, Lad hos mig bo Taalmodighed i Vaade! 8 Stor Usseldom Og Synders Sum Jeg daglig hos mig finder, Suk du i mig Usigelig, Hjælp, at jeg overvinder! 9 Trøst mig i Nød, Trøst mig i Død! Naar jeg herfra skal vige, Gjor, Troen staar Til Kristi Saar, Før mig til Ærens Rige! 10 Imidlertid I denne Strid Mig stadig hold til Ende! Lad aldrig mig Bedrøve dig Og fra dit Ord mig vende! 11 O Sandheds Aand, I alle Land Lad Herrens Ord udgydes! Ak, at det maa God Fremgang faa, Og Satans Magt nedbrydes!

I love Thy Zion, Lord

Author: Timothy Dwight Appears in 75 hymnals Topics: Tenth Sunday after Trinity Lyrics: 1 I love Thy Zion, Lord! The house of Thine abode; The Church, O blest Redeemer, sav'd By Thine own precious blood. 2 I love Thy Church, O God! Her walls before Thee stand, Dear as the apple of Thine eye, And graven on Thy hand. 3 Should I with scoffers join Her alters to abuse? No! better far my tongue were dumb, My hand its skill should lose. 4 Oh! ne'er may I forget Her welfare nor her woe; Lest ev'ry joy my heart forsake, And ev'ry grief o'erflow. 5 For her my tears shall fall; For her my prayers ascend; To her my cares and toils be given, Till toils and cares shall end. 6 Beyond my highest joy I prize her heav'nly ways, Her sweet communion, solemn vows, Her hymns of love and praise.

O store Miskundhed! Nu kan vi Jesus kjende, Nu kan vort Hjerte brænde Til Gud i Kjærlighed! 3 Den samme du, o Herre, I Hjertet prente saa, At vi ei fra din Lære Og Guds Ords Veie gaa! Lad dine Læbers Lyd Os saa i Øren klinge, At Sjælen sig maa svinge Til dig i Aandens Fryd! 4 O Hjertens rette Glæde, Du værdig' Himmelgjest, Naar Korset vil tiltræde, Vær du da Hjertet næst! Ja og i Dødens Krig, Naar Kraften vil forsvinde, O lad da Troen vinde Og vorde seierrig!

Ak, vidste du, som gaar i Syndens Lænke

Appears in 7 hymnals Topics: Tenth Sunday after Trinity Sunday Lyrics: 1 Ak vidste du, som gaar i Syndens Lænke, Hvor haardt det er, det Satans Slaveri, Du skulde dig ei Øieblik betænke, At søge den, som dig kan gjøre fri! Ak, hvilken salig Dag du fik, Om du begyndte nu i dette Øieblik! 2 Ak, kjendte du Guds Naades søde Rige, Hvor godt det er at høre Jesum til, Du skulde ei imod hans Naade krige, Som dig endnu saa gjerne Hjælpe vil! Ak, hvilken Sei'r Guds Kirke fik, Om du begyndte nu i dette Øieblik! 3 Ak, tænkte du, til evig Tid at brænde, Hvor svart det er, naar Lystens Drøm forgaar, Hvor skulde du med Graad til ham dig vende, Som mod dig med udstrakte Arme staar! Ak, hvilken Angest Satan sik, Om du begyndte nu i dette Øieblik! 4 Ak, tro'de du, at man sig ei kan drømme I Himlen ind, det ei saa let er gjort, Hvor skulde du din Lunkenhed fordømme, Og lede om den rette snevre Port! Ak, hvilken Jammer Ende sik, Om du begyndte nu i dette Øieblik! 5 Ak, mærkte du, hvor godt det er at lande I Paradis, hvor Glæden er saa sød, Du skulde snart al Verdens Lyst forbande, Og haste hen til Jesu Blod og Død! Ak, hvilken Fryd Guds Engle fik, Om du begyndte nu i dette Øieblik! 6 Ak, vilde du nu en for alle Gange Dig give ind i Bod og Bøn og Strid, Hvor skulde du af Jesu Naade fange, Hvor skulde du ham finde mild og blid! Ak, hilken Hvile Sjælen fik, Om du begyndte nu i dette Øieblik! 7 Ak, skulde du dig dertil lade tigge? Det gjælder jo din egen sjæle-Tarv, Det er saa haardt i Helved at ligge, Men, o hvor sødt at tage Himlens Arv! Ak, hvilken evig Fryd du sik, Om du begyndte nu i dette Øieblik! 8 Ak, kunde du–du kunde, om du vilde– Dog gribe ret Guds milde Hjerte fat! Nu kan det ske, nu, før det er forsilde, Det mørknes alt mod Evighedens Nat. Ak, hvilken Glæde Jesus fik, Om du begyndte nu i dette Øieblik!

O Christ, our true and only Light

Author: John Heermann; Miss Winkworth Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 95 hymnals Topics: Tenth Sunday after Trinity Lyrics: 1 O Christ, our true and only Light, Illumine those who sit in night; Let those afar now hear Thy voice, And in Thy fold with us rejoice. 2 Fill with the radiance of Thy grace The souls now lost in error's maze, And all, O Lord, whose secret minds, Some dark delusion hurts and blinds. 3 And all who else have strayed from Thee, O gently seek! Thy healing be To every wounded conscience given, And let them also share Thy heaven. 4 O make the deaf to hear Thy Word, And teach the dumb to speak, dear Lord, Who dare not yet the faith avow, Though secretly they hold it now. 5 Shine on the darkened and the cold, Recall the wanderers to Thy fold, Unite those now who walk apart, Confirm the weak and doubting heart. 6 So they with us may evermore Such grace with wondering thanks adore, And endless praise to Thee be given, By all Thy Church in earth and heaven.
