Author: C. Neumann, 1648-1715 ; A. Crull, 1846-1923 Meter: 7.8.7.8.8.8 Appears in 4 hymnals Matching Instances: 3 Lyrics: 1 From eternity, O God, In Thy Son Thou didst elect me. Therefore, Father, on life's road Graciously to heav'n direct me; Send to me Thy Holy Spirit That His gifts I may inherit. 2 Though alive, I'm dead in sin, Lost to all good things by nature. Holy Ghost, change me within, Make of me a new-born creature; For the flesh works ruination And can never gain salvation. 3 Drive away the gloomy night Of my heart's perverse reflection. Quench all thoughts that are not right; Hold my reason in subjection. Grant that I from Thee, with yearning, Wisdom always may be learning. 4 All desire and thoughts of mine From my youth are only evil. Save me by Thy pow'r divine From myself and from the devil; Give me strength in ample measure Both to will and do Thy pleasure. 5 Oh, create a heart in me That in Thee, my God believeth And o'er the iniquity Of my sins most truly grieveth. When dark hours of woe betide me, In the wounds of Jesus hide me. 6 As a branch upon a vine, In my blessed Lord implant me; Ever of my Head divine To remain a member grant me. O let Him, my Lord and Savior, Be my Life and Love forever! 7 Faith and hope and charity Graciously, O Father, give me; Be my Guardian constantly That the devil may not grieve me. Grant me humbleness and gladness, Peace and patience in my sadness. 8 Help me speak what's right and good And keep silence on occasion. Help me pray, Lord, as I should, Help me bear my tribulation. Help me die and let my spirit Everlasting life inherit. Topics: Election; Epiphany 5 Used With Tune: LIEBSTER JESU, WIR SIND HIER

Now, the Hour of Worship O'er

Author: Hartmann Schenck Meter: 7.8.7.8.8.8 Appears in 4 hymnals Matching Instances: 3 Lyrics: 1. Now, the hour of worship o’er, Teaching, hearing, praying, singing, Let us gladly God adore, For His Word our praises bringing; For the rich repast He gave us Bless the Lord, who deigned to save us. 2. Now the blessing cheers our heart, By His grace to us extended. Let us joyfully depart; Be our souls to God commended. May His Spirit ever guide us And with all good gifts provide us! 3. Bless our going out, we pray, Bless our entrance in like measure; Bless our bread, O Lord, each day, Bless our toil, our rest, our pleasure; Bless us when we reach death’s portal, Bless us then with life immortal.

Dearest Jesu, we are here

Appears in 6 hymnals Matching Instances: 2 Lyrics: I. Dearest Jesu, we are here, To be in thy word instructed; Guide our Hearts, O Thou, who'rt near; Let our Minds hence be conducted And from Earth be elevated; Where we wish to be translated. II. All our Knowledge, brings no Light But is vain and dark by Nature, Till thy holy Spirit bright Forms within us the New Creature. Pious Thoughts and true Devotion Have their Source from thy blest Motion. III. O Thou Glory all Divine, Light of Light from God proceeding, All our Hearts and Minds refine, When thy Word our Souls is feeding. Let our Pray'r, and Meditation, Be a sweet and blest Oblation.

Dearest Jesus! we are here

Author: Benjamin Schmolke; E. Cronenwett; M. Loy, D. D. Appears in 6 hymnals Matching Instances: 2 Lyrics: 1 Dearest Jesus! we are here, On Thy tender grace relying, See an infant child draw near, With Thy good behest complying: Children must to Christ be given, For they are the heirs of heaven. 2 This assurance, night and morn, In our ears re-echoes ever, Who are not of water born And the Spirit, pure are never, Ne'er can claim the Savior's merit, Ne'er His kingdom shall inherit. 3 Therefore hasten we to Thee, From our arms the pledge be taken, Show Thy mercy large and free, Be this infant not forsaken, May compassion, mild and tender, Thine this child forever render. 4 Wash it, Jesus! in Thy blood, From the sin-stain of its nature, Let it rise from out this flood Clothed in Thee, a newborn creature; May it, washed as Thou hast bidden, In thine innocence be hidden. 5 Turn the darkness into light, Change Thy wrath to gracious favor, Heal the serpent's cruel bite, By this wonder-working laver; Here let flow a Jordan river, And from leprosy deliver. 6 Shepherd! not Thy Lamb protect, Head! Thy member kindly make it, Way of Heaven! its path direct, Prince of Peace! to peace awake it, Vine! O may this branch, believing, Ever live, Thy life receiving! 7 Now into Thy heart we pour Prayers that from our hearts proceeded; May our sighings heavenward soar, May our warm desires be heeded; May the name which we have given Be recorded high in heaven.
