Awake, Thou Spirit, Who Didst Fire

Winkworth, 1827-78 Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymnary #395 (1996) Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Awake, Thou Spirit, who didst fire The watchmen of the Church's youth, Who faced the Foe's envenomed ire, Who witnessed day and night Thy truth, Whose voices loud are ringing still And bringing hosts to know Thy will. 2 Lord, let our earnest pray'r be heard, The pray'r Thy Son hath bid us pray; For lo, Thy children's hearts are stirred In ev'ry land in this our day, To cry with fervent soul to Thee, "O help us, Lord! so let it be!" 3 O haste to help, ere we are lost! Send preachers forth, in spirit strong, Armed with Thy Word, a dauntless host, Bold to attack the rule of wrong. Let them the earth for Thee reclaim, Thy heritage, to know Thy name. 4 And let Thy Word have speedy course, Through ev'ry land be glorified Till all the heathen know its force And fill Thy churches far and wide. Wake Isreal from his sleep, O Lord, And spread the conquest of thy Word! 5 The Church's desert path restore; Let stumbling-blocks that in them lie Hinder Thy Word henceforth no more: Error destroy, and heresy, And let Thy Church, from hirelings free, Bloom as a garden fair to Thee!

O Jesus, Source of Calm Repose

Author: Johann Anastasius Freylinghausen Hymnal: The Hymnal and Order of Service #486 (1926) Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 O Jesus, Source of calm repose, Thy like no man nor angel knows, Fairest among ten thousand fair! E'en those whom death's sad fetters bound, Whom thickest darkness compassed round, Find light and life, if Thou appear. 2 Renew Thine image, Lord, in me, Lowly and gentle may I be; No charms but these are to Thee dear: No anger may'st Thou ever find, No pride, in my unruffled mind, But faith and heaven-born peace, be there. 3 A patient, a victorious mind That life and all things cast behind, Springs forth obedient to Thy call, A heart that no desire can move, But still to praise, believe, and love, Give me, my Lord, my Life, my All! Amen. Topics: Way of Salvation Sanctification; Trinity, Twelfth Sunday; Trinity, Seventeenth Sunday Scripture: Song of Solomon 5:10 Languages: English Tune Title: ST. CATHERINE

Thine wholly, Thine alone I am; Be Thou alone my constant flame. 2 O Love, how cheering is Thy ray! All pain before Thy presence flies; Care, anguish, sorrow, melt away, Where'er Thy healing beams arise. O Jesus, nothing may I see, Nothing desire or seek, but Thee! 3 Unwearied, may I this pursue, Dauntless, to this high prize aspire, Hourly within my soul renew This holy flame, this heavenly fire; And day and night be all my care To guard this sacred treasure there! Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: ST. CATHERINE
