One true God we all confess

Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymnal. 9th ed. #a209 (1895) Topics: The Catechism The Creed Lyrics: 1 One true God we all confess: Father, Son and Holy Ghost, Present Help in distress, Praised by all the heavenly host: God the Father, by whose might All things are, and move aright. 2 Jesus Christ as Lord we own: God of God, and Mary's Son, Who descended from His throne, And for us Salvation won; Who Has blood and life hath given That we might be heirs of heaven. 3 We the Holy Ghost adore— Going forth from Father, Son,-- Who consoles us evermore, Lest we be by sin undone. Praise, O Holy Trinity! Praise forever be to Thee. Languages: English

Deluded souls, that dream of heaven

Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymnal. 9th ed. #a212 (1895) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: The Catechism Faith Lyrics: 1 Deluded souls, that dream of heaven, And make their empty boast Of inward joys, and sins forgiven, While they are slaves to lust! 2 Vain are our fancies, airy flights, If faith be cold and dead; None but a living power unites To Christ, the living Head: 3 A faith that changes all the heart; A faith that works by love; That bids all sinful joys depart, And lifts the thoughts above. 4 Faith must obey her Father’s will, As well as trust His grace: A pard'ning God requires us still To perfect holiness.

O let triumphant faith dispel

Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymnal. 9th ed. #a213 (1895) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: The Catechism Faith Lyrics: 1 O let triumphant faith dispel The fears of guilt and woe! If God be for us, God the Lord, Who, who shall be our foe? 2 He who his only Son gave up To death, that we might live, Shall He not all things freely grant That boundless love can give. 3 Who now his people shall accuse? 'Tis God hath justified: Who now His people shall condemn? The Lamb of God hath died. 4 And He who died hath risen again, Triumphant from the grave; At God's right hand for us He pleads, Omnipotent to save. Languages: English

To Thee, O Lord, will I sing praises

Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymnal. 9th ed. #a216 (1895) Topics: The Catechism Prayer Lyrics: 1 To Thee, O Lord, will I sing praises, For where is found a glorious God like Thee? To Thee my heart its anthem raises, O give Thy quick'ning Spirit's aid to me, That I may sing in Jesus' name alone, In strains which find acceptance at Thy throne. 2 To Thy dear Son, O Father, lead me, That He again to Thee may lead my soul; Thy Spirit in green pastures feed me, And all my powers of heart and mind control, That I may sing in praise of Thee, and never cease. 3 Grant me, O Lord, this priceless treasure, Then shall my humble worship grateful be; Then beautiful will be the measure With which in heart and truth I worship Thee; Then near to Thee Thy Spirit shall me bring, And I a worthy psalm of praise shall sing. 4 For He can intercede with groanings, Which my poor tongue is powerless to express; He comes to soothe my cheerless moanings, And with the prayer of faith my soul to bless: Makes me joint-heir with Christ of wealth on high, And bids me ever, Abba, Father! cry. 5 Thine eye with tenderness beholds me, When by the Spirit's power my cry ascends; Thine arm with gentleness enfolds me, And all Thy love to meet and bless me bends, E'er ready all my wishes to fulfill, Which upward rise according to Thy will. 6 And what to ask Thy Spirit teaches, Must ever with Thy holy will accord; My soul in Jesus' name beseeches, And therefore wilt Thou every gift afford; I am in Him Thine own dear child and heir, And grace for grace receive to crown my prayer. 7 How richly this assurance blesses! With comfort, peace, and joy, it fills my heart; I know that Thou whom faith addresses, Each needful gift wilt graciously impart, And more than I can ask or understand Thou shower'st me more than I can ask or understand 8 I ask in Jesus' name, believing, Who ever intercede in heaven for me; Through Him each perfect gift receiving, In whom is Yea whate'er I ask of Thee: How blest am I! my soul forever bless The name of Him who grants such happiness!

God, in human flesh appearing

Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymnal. 9th ed. #a224 (1895) Topics: The Catechism Holy Baptism Lyrics: 1 God, in human flesh appearing, Took the children to His breast, Lambs with His green pastures cheering, Fitting for His heavenly rest; This is gentleness unbounded, This is lowliness of heart; All are by His love surrounded, None are ever bid depart. 2 Lord! I bless Thy mercy endless, For Thy pleasure is to bless; Me too, when my soul was friendless, Thou didst to Thy bosom press: For I, too, to Thee was given In the pure baptismal wave, There Thou mad'st me heir of heaven, Who hast died my soul to save. 3 Feeble is the love of mother, Father's blessings are as naught, When compared, my King and Brother, With the wonders Thou hast wrought; Thus it pleased Thy heavenly meekness; Pleasing also be my praise, Till my songs of earthly weakness Burst into celestial lays.

That, for aye, before Thee, I may raise: Grateful praise For the grace that spared me, When sin death prepared me. 3 Father! let me taste Thy love, And Thy grace, dear Savior; Blessed Comforter above, Hallow my behavior: Be thou mine: And I Thine With the oil of gladness Soothe Thou all my sadness. 4 Praise, O Father, be for aye Thine on earth, in heaven; And like praises be alway, Savior, to Thee given. Holy Dove: God of love, Thou hast heard;--I bless Thee! Praise for aye address Thee. Languages: English

Rock of Ages, cleft for me!

Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymnal. 9th ed. #a255 (1895) Topics: The Catechism Justification Lyrics: 1 Rock of Ages, cleft for me! Let me hide myself in Thee; Let the water and the blood, From Thy wounded side that flowed, Be of sin the double cure, Save me, Lord! and make me pure. 2 Should my tears forever flow, Should my zeal no languor know, These for sin could not atone; Thou must save, and Thou alone; In my hand no price I bring, Simply to Thy cross I cling. 3 While I draw this fleeting breath, When mine eye-lids close in death, When I rise to worlds unknown, And behold Thee on Thy throne, Rock of ages, cleft for me! Let me hide myself in Thee. Languages: English
