In thy great name, O Lord, we come
Hymnal: Hymns, Selected and Original #496 (1828) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: The Means of Grace Public Worship Lyrics: 1 In thy great name, O Lord, we come,
To worship at thy feet;
O pour thy holy Spirit down
On all that now shall meet.
2 We come to hear Jehovah speak,
To hear the Saviour’s voice:
Thy face and favour, Lord, we seek,
Now make our hearts rejoice.
3 Teach us to pray, and praise, and hear,
And understand thy word;
To feel thy blissful presence near,
And trust our living Lord.
4 Here let thy pow'r and grace be felt;
Thy love and mercy known;
Our icy hearts, dear Jesus, melt,
And break this flinty stone.
5 Let sinners, Lord, thy goodness prove,
And saints rejoice in thee;
Let rebels be subdu'd by love,
And to the Saviour flee.
6 This house with grace and glory fill,
This congregation bless;
Thy great salvation now reveal;
Thy glorious righteousness.
In thy great name, O Lord, we come
Early, my God, without delay
Hymnal: Hymns, Selected and Original #504 (1828) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: The Means of Grace Public Worship Lyrics: 1 Early, my God, without delay,
I haste to seek thy face;
My thirsty spirit faints away,
Without thy cheering grace.
2 So pilgrims on the scorching sand,
Beneath a burning sky,
Long for a cooling stream at hand,
And they must drink or die.
3 I've seen thy glory and thy pow'r
Through all thy temple shine:
My God, repeat that heav'nly hour,
That vision so divine.
4 Not all the blessings of a feast
Can please my soul so well,
As when thy richer grace I taste,
And in thy presence dwell.
5 Not life itself, with all her joys,
Can my best passions move,
Or raise so high my cheerful voice,
As thy forgiving love.
Early, my God, without delay
Our Father, who in Heaven art
Author: Charles Coller (1863-1935) Hymnal: The Song Book of the Salvation Army #624 (1986) Topics: Means of grace Prayer Lyrics: 1 Our Father, who in Heaven art,
All hallowed be thy name,
Thy Kingdom come to every heart
To light the holy flame.

As angels do in Heaven,
And may to us in good and ill
Thy gracious gifts be given.
3 Our trespasses, O Lord, forgive,
And grant us grace to show
To all with whom we move and live
The grace thou dost bestow.
4 Be near us in temptation’s hour,
Let strength divine abound;
Deliver by thy mighty power
When evil shall surround.
5 The kingdoms of the world are thine,
Thine too the praise shall be;
Grant us to worship at thy shrine
To all eternity.

Our Father, who in Heaven art
Set forth within the sacred word
Author: Will J. Brand (1889-1977) Hymnal: The Song Book of the Salvation Army #656 (1986) Topics: Means of grace Scriptures Lyrics: 1 Set forth within the sacred word
The path of life is plainly shown;
The ways of God its lines record,
For every soul of man made known.
The truth, of all our hopes the ground,
Is here within its pages found.
2 God’s ample grace for fallen man,
His care for our eternal good,
The depth of his salvation plan,
The doctrine of atoning blood,
The Scriptures’ living words express
And point the way to holiness.
3 But how shall we that truth declare,
Thy grace, thy love, thy beauty show?
Only as we thy nature wear
Shall men that nature truly know;
And as we walk with thee abroad
They shall perceive the mind of God.
4 So teach us, Lord, to use each power
As we the doctrine shall adorn,
That truth and grace shall spring to flower
In lives renewed and souls reborn;
As we to all the world unfold
The glory of the faith we hold.

Shall atheists dare insult the cross
Hymnal: Hymns, Selected and Original #12 (1828) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: The Means of Grace The Word of God Lyrics: 1 Shall atheists dare insult the cross
Of our Redeemer God?
Shall infidels reproach his laws,
Or trample on his blood?
2 What if he choose mysterious ways,
To cleanse us from our faults?
May not the works of sovereign grace
Transcend our feeble thoughts?
3 What if his gospel bids us fight
With flesh, and self, and sin?
The prize is most divinely bright,
Which we are call'd to win.
4 What if the foolish, and the poor
His glorious grace partake?
This but confirms his truth the more,
For so the prophets spake.
5 Do some that own his sacred name,
Indulge their souls in sin?
Jesus should never bear the blame,
His laws are pure and clean.
6 Then let our faith grow firm and strong,
Our lips profess his word;
Nor blush, nor fear to walk among
The men that love the Lord.
Shall atheists dare insult the cross
Lord Jesus Christ, with us abide
Author: Dr. N. Selnecker; Unknown Hymnal: Hymns of the Evangelical Lutheran Church #19 (1886) Topics: The Means Of Grace Lyrics: 1 Lord Jesus Christ, with us abide,
for round us falls the eventide;
nor let Thy Word, that heavenly light,
for us be ever veiled in night.
2 In these last days of sore distress
Grant us, dear Lord, true steadfastness,
That pure we keep -- till life is spent --
Thy holy Word and Sacrament.
3 Lord Jesus, help, Thy Church uphold,
For we are sluggish, thoughtless, cold;
Indue Thy Word with power and grace,
And spread its truth in every place.
4 O keep us in Thy Word, we pray;
The guile and rage of Satan stay;
Unto Thy Church grant, Lord, Thy grace,
Peace, concord, patience, fearlessness.
5 O God! how sin's dread works abound!
Throughout the earth no rest is found,
And wide has falsehood's spirit spread,
And error boldly rears its head.
6 Those haughty spirits, Lord, restrain,
That fain would o'er Thy Christians reign,
And always set forth something new,
Devised to change Thy doctrine true.
7 And as the cause and glory, Lord,
Are Thine, not ours, do Thou afford
Us help and strength and constancy;
With all our heart we trust in Thee.
8 A trusty weapon is Thy Word,
Thy Church's buckler, shield, and sword;
Lord, let us by this Word abide,
That we may seek no other guide.
9 O grant that in Thy holy Word
We here may live and die, dear Lord,
And when our journey endeth here,
Receive us into glory there. Languages: English Tune Title: [Lord Jesus Christ, with us abide]

O Christ, our true and only Light
Author: J. Heermann Hymnal: Hymns of the Evangelical Lutheran Church #21 (1886) Topics: The Means Of Grace Lyrics: 1 O Christ, our true and only Light,
enlighten 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 whom in their 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 from Thy fold,
Unite all those 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. Languages: English Tune Title: [O Christ, our true and only Light]

Deep And Precious
Author: J. C. Aaberg; T. V. Oldenburg Hymnal: American Lutheran Hymnal #34 (1930) Meter: 4.4.7.4.4.7.8.8 Topics: The Means of Grace The Word Lyrics: 1 Deep and precious,
Strong and gracious
Is the Word of God above,
Gently calling
Sinners falling,
To the Savior’s arm of love.
Unto all the Word is given:
Jesus is the way to heaven.
2 Precious Savior,
Wondrous favor
Hast Thou shown our fallen race.
Worlds may falter,
Times may alter,
Nothing moves Thy Word of grace.
With Thy word Thy grace abideth,
And for all our needs provideth.
3 By Thy Spirit,
Thro' Thy merit,
Draw all sinners, Lord, to Thee.
Sin and error,
Death and terror
By Thy word shall vanquished be.
Lead us all thro' life’s straight portal,
Till we reach the life immortal.

Our Savior To The Jordan Came
Author: H. Brueckner; Martin Luther Hymnal: American Lutheran Hymnal #42 (1930) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7.8.7.7 Topics: The Means of Grace The Sarraments-Holy Baptism Lyrics: 1 Our Savior to the Jordan came,
The Father's will obeying,
And there by John was He baptized,
His work no more delaying.
He there vouchsafed a cleansing breath
To free from sin's possession,
To rescue us from bitter death
And wash away transgression,
New life in us creating.
2 So hear ye all and ponder well
What God Himself installeth,
What He would have us all believe.
What He a washing calleth.
That water at the font be used,
Is surely His good pleasure,
But with it go His holy Word
and Spirit without measure;
He is the true Baptizer.
3 To show us this with ample proof,
Both words and signs are given.
At Jordan's brink was plainly heard
The Father's voice from heaven:
This is my well beloved Son,
In whom my soul delighteth;
O hear ye Him when ev'ryone
He to Himself inviteth;
Obey His will and teaching.
4 The Son of God is also here,
In tender manhood bending,
And we behold the Spirit, too,
In dove-like form descending.
Thus are we strengthened in our faith,
Which nevermore should waver.
That Father, Son and Holy Ghost
Are present at the laver,
To make our hearts their dwelling.
5 He who rejects this wondrous grace,
The Scripture disbelieving,
Shall have his sins abide with him,
In hell his place receiving.
His outward deeds avail him naught,
His holiness must vanish;
His inborn sin all works annuls,
God such a one must banish:
Himself he cannot rescue.
6 To His disciples Jesus saith:
Go, teach ye every nation:
Man, lost in sin, must needs repent,
To flee from condemnation.
Baptized and having faith in Me,
He shall be saved forever;
A new-born man shall he be called,
Whom naught from Me can sever;
My Kingdom He inherits.
7 Blind sense but water sees and asks:
Pray, how can water save us?
But faith the blood of Christ beholds
That here in truth doth lave us.
It sees this fountain colored red
That here for us is flowing.
To purge us from our inborn sin
And, every grace bestowing,
From all misdeeds to free us. Languages: English Tune Title: BAPTIZEIN
