Abide With Us, the Day is Waning

Author: Caspar J. Boye; Oluf H. Smeby Hymnal: LH1941 #194 (1941) Meter: 9.8.9.8.8.8 First Line: "Abide with us, the day is waning" Lyrics: 1 "Abide with us, the day is waning," Thus prayed the two while on the way; We read that Thou, O Lord, remaining, Didst all their doubts and fears allay. Incline Thine ear, Thou King of Grace, When, praying thus, we seek Thy face. 2 At eventide, Thy Spirit sending, Help us, O Lord, our watch to keep, In prayer devout, before Thee bending, Ere our eyelids close in sleep, Confessing sin in deed and word With hope of mercy from the Lord. 3 Abide with us; with heav'nly gladness Illumine, Lord, our darkest day; And when we weep in pain and sadness, Be Thou our Solace, Strength, and Stay. Tell of Thy woe, Thy vict'ry won, When Thou didst pray: "Thy will be done." 4 Abide with us, O Savior tender, That bitter day when life shall end, When to the grave we must surrender, And fear and pain our hearts shall rend. The shield of faith do Thou bestow When trembling we must meet the foe. 5 When earthly help no more availeth, To sup with us Thou wilt be nigh; Thou givest strength that never faileth, In Thee we grave and death defy. While earth is fading from our sight, Our eyes behold the realms of light. Amen. Topics: The Church Year Easter Scripture: Luke 24:13-35 Languages: English Tune Title: WER NUR DEN LIEBEN GOTT

Christ Jesus lay in Death's Strong Bands

Author: Martin Luther; Richard Massie Hymnal: LH1941 #195 (1941) Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.8.7.4 Lyrics: 1 Christ Jesus lay in death's strong bands, For our offenses given; But now at God's right hand He stands And brings us life from heaven; Therefore let us joyful be And sing to God right thankfully Loud songs of hallelujah! Hallelujah! 2 It was a strange and dreadful strife When Life and Death contended; The victory remained with Life, The reign of Death was ended; Holy Scripture plainly saith That Death is swallowed up by Death, His sting is lost forever. Hallelujah! 3 Here the true Paschal Lamb we see, Whom God so freely gave us; He died on the accursed tree-- So strong His love!--to save us. See, His blood doth mark our door; Faith points to it, Death passes o'er, And Satan cannot harm us. Hallelujah! 4 So let us keep the festival Whereto the Lord invites us; Christ is Himself the Joy of all, The Sun that warms and lights us. By His grace He doth impart Eternal sunshine to the heart; The night of sin is ended. Hallelujah! 5 Then let us feast this Easter Day On Christ, the Bread of heaven; The Word of Grace hath purged away The old and evil leaven. Christ alone our souls will feed, He is our meat and drink indeed; Faith lives upon no other. Hallelujah! Amen.
