Fairest Bridegroom Mine

Author: Adam Drese Hymnal: American Lutheran Hymnal #194 (1930) Meter: 5.5.8.8.5.5 Topics: The Means of Grace The Redeemer Lyrics: 1 Fairest Bridegroom mine, Jesus, Lamb divine, Fervent thanks to Thee I render For Thy love so pure and tender, Which hath made me Thine, Jesus, Lamb divine. 2 Treasure of my heart, God and man Thou art, Born in deep humiliation To effect the world's salvation; Ne'er from me depart, Treasure of my heart. 3 Keep my inner sight Ever clear and bright; Pour on me the oil of gladness, That through all the gloom of sadness I may see the light By that inner sight. 4 Here my treasures wane, There a crown I gain; Here but hoping and believing, There reality perceiving, I do not complain, Tho' my treasures wane. 5 Jesus, dearest Friend, Help me to contend With the ills that come assailing, That against them all prevailing, Thou unto the end Be my dearest Friend. 6 Sharon's Rose so fair, Sweet beyond compare, Naught but Thy good will and pleasure, Here on earth my soul shall treasure. All Thy grace I share, Sharon's Rose so fair. Languages: English Tune Title: JESUS, BE OUR GUIDE

Let it go forth o'er all the earth, To cleanse our hearts within, To show Thy power in Satan's hour, And break the might of sin. 3 Thy Word a wondrous guiding star On pilgrim hearts doth rise, Leads those to God who dwell afar, And makes the simple wise.

My trust is in Thy grace and pow'r; For all was finished in that hour, When Thou didst make atonement. 3 When I approach Thine altar, Lord, May I this comfort cherish, That on the cross, Thy blood was poured For me, lest I should perish. Thou didst for me God's law fulfill. That holy joy my heart might thrill, When on Thy love I'm feasting. 4 Shield me against the tempter's power, Whene'er he would assail me: Confirm my faith in death's dark hour, O let it never fail me!

Lyrics: 1 "Come, O sinner, all is ready!" Hear the loving Saviour plead, From death's dungeon He would free thee, On the living pathway lead. Know the Father's will to save: Yet a day of grace He gave; Hearken to the voice that calls thee, Ere His righteous doom befalls thee. 2 If thou to the Lord's entreaties Close thine ears and lock thy heart, If thou spurn the hand that beckons Thee from evil ways apart, Soon that gentle voice may cease: Know the things unto thy peace, Ere the door shall close forever, thee from heav'nly bliss to sever. 3 But if thou in deep contrition Ownest to thy helplessness, Trusting solely in His merit Who achieved thy righteousness, Hearken, then, unto His call. At His table humbly fall, There receive the food fro heaven For thy faith's sustention given. 4 Lord and Saviour, keep and guide me By Thy gospel light, I pray, That the world by her seductions Draw me not from Thee away. In Thy body and Thy blood Give me now that precious food Which Thy witness here shall make me, Till to thine abode Thou take me. Amen, Scripture: Matthew 22:4 Languages: English Tune Title: WERDE MUNTER, MEIN GEMÜTHE
