Faith Is Wisdom From On High

Author: Emanuel Cronenwett Hymnal: American Lutheran Hymnal #126 (1930) Topics: The Means of Grace Faith and Justification Lyrics: 1 Faith is wisdom from on high, Hearing ear and seeing eye; In the soul a higher light Than the ken of mortal sight: Vivid trust in hope serene, Evidence of things not seen. 2 Faith in meekness, as is meet, Sits and learns at Jesus' feet; Nestles closely to the Lord, Happy in the Master's Word; Cleaves to it, defends it then: This to faith is Yea, Amen. 3 Faith is sure where sight is blind: While lost sense may nowhere find Hope, to stay a sinking soul When the billows o'er it roll, Faith directs its saving quest To the cross, and there finds rest. 4 Faith, in childlike trust, is wise: Trusting Him who never lies; By whose grace the weak grow strong, Change their sighing into song. Praise be Thine, O Lord of might; Faith shall end in glorious sight. Languages: English Tune Title: DIX

There Is A Blessed Power

Author: J. C. Aaberg Hymnal: American Lutheran Hymnal #129 (1930) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Topics: The Means of Grace Faith and Justification Lyrics: 1 There is a blessed power That shields us from all woe, And like a mighty tower Protects us from the foe; It is the faith abiding In Jesus Christ, our Lord; It is the faith confiding In God's own blessed Word. 2 By faith was Moses guided To reach the promised land And Israel provided With manna from God's hand; In want and tribulation, Exposed to fire and sword, God's children found salvation By faith in Christ, the Lord. 3 When shades of night enclose us And griefs our hearts dismay, When foes with might oppose us And friends our trust betray, In fear and tribulation We take the shield of faith, And with this consolation We fight the pow'rs of death. 4 Arise, then, all believers, Lift high this mighty shield; The strongest arrow shivers Against its gleaming field; And ye shall walk protected From Satan's wiles and might Until in grace perfected Ye dwell with God in light.

As By One's Sin Fell All Our Kin

Author: Emanuel Cronenwett Hymnal: American Lutheran Hymnal #135 (1930) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: The Means of Grace Faith and Justification Lyrics: 1 As by one's sin fell all our kin, Conceived and born sin-stained, So by One's grace, who took the place Of all, are all regained, Of all, are all regained. 2 The blood-red tide from Christ's cleft side, Shed for the good of all, Is laver pure to cleanse and cure All lost in Adam's fall, All lost in Adam's fall. 3 Of it are born, though once forlorn, The saints in Him baptized; Its life receive all who believe That Jesus is the Christ, That Jesus is the Christ. 4 His righteousness is crown and dress Of those who own Him Lord, Who, sin-oppressed, find in Him rest And keep His faithful Word, And keep His faithful Word. 5 To God be praise through endless days, In whom we live and move, God--Father, Son and Spirit--One, The Triune God of Love! The Triune God of Love! Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: COWPER

The peace of God I now possess, Which ev'ry evil can redress. 3 I bid the wicked world defiance, Tho' fiercely it God's Word deride; In Him I place my firm reliance Whose promise ever shall abide; Tho' earth and heaven pass away, His Word shall ever be my stay. 4 How gladly I His promise ponder! Tho' sinful, yet in grace I stand; A heritage awaits me yonder, And heaven is my fatherland. My Lord, as Victor in the strife, Awards to me the crown of life. 5 How good to hear my Savior calling, To see Him even face to face! What bliss, before Him prostrate falling, To find with Him a resting place And with the saints in sweet accord, To sing the praise of Christ, my Lord! Languages: English Tune Title: VIG

Heermann Hymnal: American Lutheran Hymnal #173 (1930) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.8.7 Topics: The Means of Grace The Redeemer Lyrics: 1 O God, if Thy beloved Son Had not to earth descended, Nor by His death salvation won, My woe would not be ended. This sinful, wretched soul of mine Would then in hell forever pine Because of my transgression. 2 But now sweet peace and rest I find, My soul no more despairing, Since He, the sin of all mankind I wondrous patience bearing, For me has true atonement made, Thine ever righteous wrath allayed, And wrought my soul's salvation. 3 I trust in Him with all my heart, And all my sorrow ceases; His wounds abiding peace impart, His blood from guilt releases, Enables me free grace to gain And washes me from ev'ry stain, that snow-white I am rendered. 4 His blood affords me sure relief, He is my joy forever; Now from Thy love no pain or grief My ransomed soul shall sever. The crown of life, by Thy dear Son For me, a wretched sinner, won. No devil can wrest from me. 5 All human righteousness is vain, Our works can never save us; True righteousness by faith we gain, The blood of Christ's must lave us. His death, that perfect sacrifice, Has paid the all-sufficient price; In Him my hope is anchored. Languages: English Tune Title: MONMOUTH

Lyrics: 1 Rock of Ages, cleft for me! Let me hide myself in Thee; Let the water and the blood, From Thy riven side that flowed, Be of sin the perfect cure; Save me, Lord! and make me pure. 2 Not the labors of my hands Can fulfill Thy law's demands; Could my zeal no respite know, Could my tears forever flow, All for sin could not atone; Thou must save, and Thou alone. 3 Nothing in my hand I bring, Simply to Thy cross I cling; Naked, come to Thee for dress; Helpless, look to Thee for grace; Foul, I to the fountain fly; Wash me, Savior, or I die! 4 While I draw this fleeting breath, When mine eyelids close in death, When I rise to worlds unknown, See Thee on Thy judgment-throne, Rock of Ages, cleft for me, Let me hide myself in Thee! Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: TOPLADY
