And shall we still be slaves

Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymnal #381 (1880) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Topics: Christian Life and Hope Lyrics: 1 And shall we still be slaves, And in our fetters lie, When summoned by a voice divine T'assert our liberty? 2 Did Christ the Saviour bleed, Our freedom to obtain? And shall we trample on His blood, And glory in our chain? 3 Shall we go on to sin, Because His grace abounds; Or crucify the Lord again, And open all His wounds? 4 Forbid it, mighty God! Nor let it e'er be said That those, for whom Thy Son has died, In vice are lost and dead. Languages: English

Am I a soldier of the cross

Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymnal #382 (1880) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Christian Life and Hope Lyrics: 1 Am I a soldier of the cross? A foll'wer of the Lamb? And shall I fear to own His cause, Or blush to speak His name? 2 Must I be carried to the skies On flow'ry beds of ease? While others fought to win the prize, And sailed through bloody seas? 3 Are there no foes for me to face? Must I not stem the flood? Is this vile world a friend to grace, To help me on to God? 4 Sure I must fight if I would reign; Increase my courage, Lord! I'll bear the toil, endure the pain, Supported by Thy word. 5 Thy saints, in all this glorious war Shall conquer though they die; They see the triumph from afar, With faith's discerning eye. 6 When that illustrious day shall rise, And all thine armies shine, In robes of vict'ry through the skies, The glory shall be Thine.

Father, Son, and Holy Ghost

Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymnal #387 (1880) Topics: Christian Life and Hope Lyrics: 1 Father, Son and Holy Ghost, One in Three, and Three in One, As by the celestial host, Let Thy will on earth be done: Praise by all to Thee be giv'n, Gracious Lord of earth and heav'n. 2 That so poor a worm as I May to Thy great glory live, All my actions sanctify, All my words and thoughts receive; Claim me, for Thy service claim All I have, and all I am. 3 Take my soul and body's powers! Take my mem'ry, mind, and will, All my goods and all my hours, All I know and all I feel: All I think, or speak, or do; Take my heart-- but make it new! 4 Now, O God, Thine own I am; Now I give Thee back Thine own; Freedom, friends, and health, and fame, Consecrate to Thee alone; Thine I live, thrice happy I! Happier still if Thine I die. Languages: English

When Jesus dwelt in mortal clay

Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymnal #389 (1880) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Christian Life and Hope Lyrics: 1 When Jesus dwelt in mortal clay, What were His works from day to day, But miracles of power and grace, Which spread salvation through our race? 2 Teach us, O Lord, to keep in view Thy pattern, and Thy steps pursue: Let alms bestowed, let kindness done, Be witnessed by each rolling sun. 3 That man may last, but never lives, Who much receives, but nothing gives: Whom none can love, whom none can thank, Creation's blot, creation's blank. 4 But he who marks from day to day In gen'rous acts his radiant way, The same path treads the Savior trod, The path to glory and to God.

Jesus, my Lord, how rich Thy grace!

Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymnal #390 (1880) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Christian Life and Hope Lyrics: 1 Jesus, my Lord, how rich Thy grace! Thy bounties how complete! How shall I count the matchless sum, How pay the mighty debt? 2 High on a throne of radiant light Dost Thou exalted shine: What can my poverty bestow, When all the worlds are Thine? 3 But Thou hast brethren here below, The partners of Thy grace, And wilt confess their humble names Before Thy Father’s face. 4 In them Thou may'st be clothed and fed, And visited and cheered; And in their accents of distress My Savior’s voice is heard. 5 Thy face, with rev'rence and with love, We in Thy poor would see; O rather let me beg my bread, Than keep it back from Thee.

He that goeth forth with weeping

Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymnal #393 (1880) Topics: Christian Life and Hope Lyrics: 1 He that goeth forth with weeping, Sowing precious seed in love, Never tiring, never sleeping, Findeth blessing from above. 2 Soft descend the dews of heaven, Bright the rays celestial shine; Precious fruits will thus be given Through an influence all divine. 3 Sow thy seed, be never weary, Let no fears thy soul annoy; Be the prospect ne’er so dreary, Thou shalt reap the fruits in joy. 4 God but uses thee as sower, Puts the seed into thy hand; Sow thou then, let Him be Mower, Till thou reap in fatherland.

Up, my soul, gird thee with power

Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymnal #396 (1880) Topics: Christian Life and Hope Lyrics: 1 Up, my soul, gird thee with power, Watch! to prayer betake thee; Lest the sudden evil hour Unawares o'ertake thee. Satan's prey Soon are they, Who, with best endeavor, Watch not, pray not, ever. 2 But first rouse thee, and awake From secure indiff'rence; Else will follow in its wake Woe without deliv'rance. Take thou heed! Utter need, Death in sins might find thee, Ere thou look behind thee. 3 Wake, arouse! else can the Lord Not enlighten, ground thee; Nor thou see the quickening Word Shine in splendor round thee. God demands Eyes and hands Open for the offers, He so richly proffers. 4 With thy watching mingle prayer; Grace but rids from slumber. God rids thee from slothful care And the weights that cumber; Else will still Mind and will Lukewarm praises tender, And cold service render. 5 God will have it that we ask, And it shall be given; Who pray alway, alway bask In the grace of heaven. Ere they plead Will He heed, Strengthen, keep, defend them, And deliv'rance send them. 6 Cheer thee then, my soul! All must Work for good, and bless us, If we but in prayerful trust To God's Son address us; And He will Richly fill, And His Spirit send us, Who to Him commend us. 7 Let us watch then, pray, with heed, God will prove our Hearer; For the hour of utmost need Constantly draws nearer. Saints will cheer, Sinners fear, When the trumpet calleth, Earth in ruins falleth. Languages: English

God of grace, whose Word is sure

Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymnal #398 (1880) Topics: Christian Life and Hope Lyrics: 1 God of grace, whose Word is sure, Thou who keenest truth forever, That my trust may rest secure On this ground that wavers never, Let Thy truth be dear to me, That my soul may faithful be. 2 Ever true this word remains: He who Christ to own refuses, While he earthly comfort gains, Everlasting comfort loses; For the Savior will not own Him before the Father's throne. 3 To the banner of the cross I fidelity have plighted, It would be my endless loss If this solemn vow were slighted; Therefore Jesus, none but He, Shall my constant watchword be. 4 Let me, till my latest breath, Christ confess with constant meekness; Let me faithful be till death, Strong in Him 'mid all my weakness; Let me live in Him, and die Heir of mansions in the sky.
