Nun jauchzet all' ihr Frommen

Author: Michael Schirmer Hymnal: Evangelisch-Lutherisches Gesang-Buch #11 (1848) Topics: Advent and Incarnation of Jesus Christ Lyrics: 1 Nun jauchzet all' ihr Frommen, in dieser Gnaden-Zeit, weil unser Heil ist kommen, der Herr der Herrlichkeit; zwar ohne stolzen Pracht, doch mächtig zu verheeren und gänzlich zu zerstören des Teufels Reich und Macht. 2 Er kömmt zu uns geritten auf einem Eselein, und stellt sich in die Mitten für uns zum Opfer ein. Er bringt kein zeitlich Gut, Er will allein erwerben durch seinen Tod und Sterben, was ewig währen thut. 3 Kein Scepter, keine Crone sucht er auf dieser Welt; im hohen Himmelsthrone ist Ihm sein Reich bestellt. Er will hier seine Macht und Majestät verhüllen, bis Er des Vaters Willen im Leiden hat vollbracht. 4 Ihr großen Potentaten, nehmt diesen König an, wenn ihr euch wollet rathen und gehn die rechte Bahn, die zu dem Himmel führt; sonst wo Ihn bier verachtet, und nur nach Hoheit trachtet, des Höchsten Zorn dann rührt. 5 Ihr Armen und Elenden in dieser bösen Zeit, die ihr an allen Enden müßt haben Angst und Leid; seid dennoch wohlgemuth, laßt eure Lieder klingen, und lobet Gott mit Singen; der ist eu'r höchstes Gut. 6 Er wird nun bald erscheinen in seiner Herrlichkeit, und all' eu'r Klag' und Weinen verwandelen in Freud; Er ist's der helfen kann, halt't eure Lampen fertig, und seid stets sein gewärtig, Er ist schon auf der Bahn.

Wie soll ich Dich empfangen

Author: Paul Gerhard Hymnal: Evangelisch-Lutherisches Gesang-Buch #18 (1848) Topics: Advent and Incarnation of Jesus Christ Lyrics: 1 Wie soll ich Dich empfangen und wie begegn' ich Dir? o aller Welt Verlangen, o meiner Seelen Zier! O Jesu, Jesu, setze mir selbst die Fackel bei, damit, was Dich ergötze, mir kund und wissend sei. 2 Dein Zion streut dir Palmen und grüne Zweige hin, und ich will Dir in Psalmen ermuntern meinen Sinn: mein Herze soll Dir grünen in stetem Lob und Preis und Deinem Namen dienen, so gut ich kann und weiß. 3 Was hast Du unterlassen zu meiner Trost und Freud', als Leib und Seele saßen in ihrem größten Leid? als mir das Reich genommen, da Fried' und Freude lacht, da bist Du, mein Heil, kommen, und hast mich froh gemacht. 4 Ich lag in schweren Banden, Du kömmst und machst mich los; ich stund in Spott und Schanden, Du kömmst und machst mich groß, und hebst mich hoch zu Ehren, und schenkst mir großes Gut, das sich nicht läßt verzehren, wie irdisch Reichtum thut. 5 Nichts, nichts hat Dich getrieben zu mir vom Himmels-Zelt, als dein geliebte Lieben, damit Du alle Welt in ihren tausend Plagen und großen Jammer-Last, die kein Mund kann aussagen, so fest umfangen hast. 6 Das schreib dir in dein Herze, du hochbetrübtes Heer, bei denen Gram und Schmerze sich häuft je mehr und mehr; seid unverzagt, ihr habet die Hülfe vor dir Thür: der eure Herzen labet und tröstet, steht allhier. 7 Ihr dürft euch nicht bemühen, noch sorgen Tag und Nacht, wie ihr Ihn wollet ziehen mit eure Armes Macht; Er kömmt, er kömmt mit Willen, ist voller Lieb und Lust, all' Angst und Noth zu stillen, die Ihm an euch bewußt. 8 Auch dürft ihr nicht erschrecken für eurer Sündenschuld, nein, Jesus will sie decken mit seiner Lieb und Huld. Er kömmt, Er kömmt den Sündern zu Trost und wahrem Heil, schafft, daß bei Gottes Kindern verbleib' ihr Erb' und Theil. 9 Was fragt ihr nach dem Schrein der Feind' und ihrer Tück? Der Herr wird sie zerstreuen in einem Augenblick. Er kömmt, er kömmt ein König, dem wahrlich alle Feind' auf Erden viel zu wenig zum Widerstande feynd. 10 Er kömmt zum Weltgerichte, zum Fluch dem, der Ihm flucht, mit Gnad' und süßem Lichte dem, der Ihn liebt und sucht. Ach komm, ach komm, o Sonne! und hol' uns allzumal zum ew'gen Licht und Wonne in Deinen Freudensaal. Languages: German
