Mi Von og Trøyst og Tillit stend

Appears in 1 hymnal Topics: Second Sunday in Advent For Evening Lyrics: 1 Mi Von og Trøyst og Tillit stend Til Gud med største Tryggja. Gud er so god og trufast kjend, Eg paa hans ord vil byggja: At han fyr meg So naadeleg Sin Son leg Krossen bera, Meg, som var dand I synd og Nand, Han resier upp til Æra 2 Til deg so ropar eg med Hast I desse sidste Tider. Eg trur og vonar visst og fast, Du fyr di Kyrkja strider. Ho kringsett er Av Satans Her, Som henne hardt vil herja. Krist, lat ditt Ord, Vaar Skjold paa Jord, Oss stødt i Striden verja! 3 Gud vere Lov fyr Naaden stor, Som han let til meg salla, At han meg med sitt reine Ord Let til sitt Rike kalla! Guds Ande, ver Til Handa her Uti min sidste Ende! Tak, Herre, meg So heim til deg! Eg giv meg deg i Hende. Text Sources: Etter de gamle danske hjaa Hans Tomissøn

But far beyond the realms of sense My fervent prayer ascendeth: My prayer, unuttered, but a groan, Shall rend the skies and reach Thy throne. 3 Then visions of the goodly land By faith my soul obtaineth; There I shall dwell for evermore Where Christ in glory reigneth, In mansions of that bright abode, The city of the living God. 4 In that blest city is no night, Nor any pain or weeping; There is my treasure, there my heart, Safe in my Saviour’s keeping; In heaven, my blessèd Lord, with Thee, May all my conversation be. 5 In glory He shall come again To earth as He ascended; So let me wait and watch and pray, Until my day is ended. that day, O Lord, is hid from me, But daily do I wait for Thee. 6 And blessèd shall that servant be, O Lord, at Thy returning, Whose heart is waiting, Lord, for Thee, Whose lamp is trimmed and burning; Him wilt Thou take to dwell with Thee, In joy and peace eternally.
