Be thou my guardian and my guide

Author: Isaac Williams, 1802-1865 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 39 hymnals Topics: Lent I Year B Lyrics: 1 Be thou my guardian and my guide, and hear me when I call; let not my slippery footsteps slide, and hold me lest I fall. 2 The world, the flesh, and Satan dwell around the path I tread; O save me from the snares of hell, thou quickener of the dead. 3 And if I tempted am to sin, and outward things are strong, do thou, O Lord, keep watch within, and save my soul from wrong. 4 Still let me ever watch and pray, and feel that I am frail; that if the tempter cross my way, yet he may not prevail.

A safe stronghold our God is still

Author: Martin Luther, 1483-1546; Thomas Carlyle, 1795-1881 Meter: 8.7.8.7.6.6.6.6.7 Appears in 70 hymnals Topics: Advent I Year B; Lent II Year C; Proper 4 Year A Lyrics: 1 A safe stronghold our God is still, a trusty shield and weapon; he'll keep us clear from all the ill that hath us now o'ertaken. The ancient prince of hell hath risen with purpose fell; strong mail of craft and power he weareth in this hour; on earth is not his fellow. 2 With force of arms we nothing can, full soon were we down-ridden; but for us fights the proper man, whom God himself hath bidden. Ask ye, 'Who is this same?' Christ Jesus is his name, the Lord Sabaoth's Son; he, and no other one, shall conquer in the battle. *3 And were this world all devils o'er, and watching to devour us, we lay it not to heart so sore; not they can overpower us. And let the prince of ill look grim as e'er he will, he harms us not a whit; for why? His doom is writ; a word shall quickly slay him. 4 God's word, for all their craft and force, one moment will not linger, but, spite of hell, shall have its course; 'tis written by his finger. And though they take our life, goods, honour, children, wife, yet is their profit small; these things shall vanish all: the City of God remaineth.

Praise to the Lord of my salvation: salvation is of Christ the Lord. Amen. Scripture: 1 Chronicles 16:35 Used With Tune: GARTAN Text Sources: St. Patrick's Breastplate, 5th-7th century Gaelic

The Kingdom of God

Author: Bryn A. Rees, b. 1911 Meter: 10.10.11.11 Appears in 24 hymnals Topics: Lent I B First Line: The kingdom of God is justice and joy Lyrics: 1 The kingdom of God is justice and joy; For Jesus restores what sin would destroy. God's power and glory in Jesus we know; And here and hereafter the kingdom shall grow. 2 The kingdom of God is mercy and grace; The captives are freed, the sinners find place, The outcast are welcomed God's banquet to share; And hope is awakened in place of despair. 3 The kingdom of God is challenge and choice: Believe the good news, repent and rejoice! God's love for us sinners brought Christ to his cross: Our crisis of judgement for gain or for loss. 4 God's kingdom is come, the gift and the goal; In Jesus begun, in heaven made whole. The heirs of the kingdom shall answer his call; And all things cry "Glory!" to God all in all. Used With Tune: LAUDATE DOMINUM

Jesus, dine dybe Vunder

Author: Johann Heermann; N. Arktander Appears in 7 hymnals Topics: Sædvanlige Salmer til Høimesse; High Mass; Første Søndag i Faste Til Høimesse; First Sunday in Lent; Andre Søndag I Faste Til Høimesse -Til Sekund Tekstrækkes Evangelium; Second Sunday in Lent; Langfredag Til Høimesse; Good Friday; Fristelse; Temptation; Hengivelse til Jesus; Devotion to Jesus Lyrics: 1 Jesus, dine dybe Vunder Og din smertefulde Død Trøster mig i alle Stunder Udi Livs- og Sjæle-Nød. Falder noget Ondt mig ind, Straks jeg tænker i mit Sind Paa din Pine, som forbyder Mig at drive Skjæmt med Lyder. 2 Om mit Kjød og Blod vil skjænke Sig med Syndelysters Skaal, Hvad du led, jeg monne tænke, Og straks finde Ro og Taal. Sætter Satan ind paa mig, Som mit Skjold jeg viser dig, Dine Saar og Blode-Strømme, Straks maa han tilbage rømme. 3 Om mig Verden vil forlede Hen paa Lysters brede Plan, Hvor der er kun syndig Glæede, Jeg da skuer, Frelsermand, Dine Piners Byrde svar, Du for mig udstandet har, Saa kan jeg i Alvor blive, Og al Verdens Lyst fordrive. 4 Ja mod al Ting, som mig krænker, Give dine Vunder Kraft, Naar sig Hjertet i dem sænker, Finder jeg ny Levesaft; Din den himmelsøde Død Vender al min Nag og Nød:– At du Salighed mig bragte, Da du Døden for mig smagte. 5 Jeg paa dig min Tro har grundet, Du min ene Tilflugt sand, Og din Død har Do∂en bundet, Saa den mig ei døde kan; At jeg haver Del i dig, Trøster, trygger, redder mig, Og din Naade mig har givet, At staa op til Lys og Livet. 6 Har jeg dig udi mit Hjerte, Du al Godheds Kilderspring, Jeg da finder ingen Smerte, End i Dødens sidste Sting. Ingen Fiende skader mig, Naar jeg skjuler mig i dig, Hvo med dine Saar sig dækker, Ham ti Livet du opvækker.

Du est min Trøst, Dit Ord og Røst I al min Brøst Min Hjertens Glæde mon være. 6 Naar Sorgen mig trænger, Efter dig mig forlænger, Du kan mig bedst husvale; Den, du vil bevare, Han er uden Fare, Du mig forsvare, Dig monne jeg mig befale! 7 Nu veed jeg vist, Herre Jesus Krist, Du vil mig aldrig forlade; Du siger jo saa: Kald du mig paa, Hjælp skal du faa I al din Sorg og Vaade. 8 O give det Gud, Vi efter dine Bud Kunde os saa skikke tilsammen, At vi med dig Evindelig I Himmerig Kunde leve i Salighed! Amen.
