Father, Merciful and Holy
Author: Johann Rist, 1607-1667 Hymnal: Hymnal and Order of Service #181b (1901) Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.7.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Father, merciful and holy,
Thee tonight I praise and bless,
Who to labor true and lowly,
Grantest ever meet success;
Many a sin and many a woe,
Many a fierce and subtle foe
Hast Thou checked that once alarmed me,
So that naught today has harmed me.
2 Now the light, that nature gladdens,
And the pomp of day is gone,
And my heart is tired and saddens,
As the gloomy night comes on;
Ah, then with thy changeless light
Warm and cheer my heart to-night;
As the shadow round me gather,
Keep me close to Thee, my Father.
3 Though I have from Thee departed,
Now I seek Thy face again,
For Thy Son, the loving-hearted,
Made our peace through bitter pain.
Yes, far greater than our sin,
Though it still be strong within,
Is Thy love that fails us never,
Mercy that endures forever.
4 Though my weary eyes are closing,
And mhy senses fall asleep,
Still my soul, on Thee reposing,
Ever must it vigils keep.
Let my Spirit longingly
Always dram, my God, of Thee,
Firmly unto Thee e'er cleaving,
E'en in sleep Thy grace receiving.
5 Lord, the twilight now hath vanished,
Send Thy blessing on my sleep,
Every sin and terror banished,
Let my rest be calm and deep.
Soul and body, mind and health,
Wife and children, house and wealth,
Friend and foe, the sick, the stranger,
Keep Thou safe from harm and danger.
6 O Thou mighty God, now hearken
To the prayer Thy child hath made;
Jesus, while the night-hours darken,
Be Thou still my Hope, my Aid:
Holy Ghost, on Thee I call,
Friend and Comforter of all,
Hear my earnest prayer, oh, hear me!
Lord, Thou hearest, Thou art near me. Topics: Worship Languages: English Tune Title: WERDE MUNTER, MEIN GEMÜTHE

Like the Golden Sun Ascending
Author: Thomas Kingo; George T. Rygh Hymnal: The Lutheran Hymnal #207 (1941) Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.7.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Like the golden sun ascending,
Breaking thro' the gloom of night,
On the earth his glory spending
So that darkness takes to flight,
Thus my Jesus from the grave
And Death's dismal, dreadful cave
Rose triumphant Easter morning
At the early purple dawning.
2 Thanks to Thee, O Christ victorious!
Thanks to Thee, O Lord of Life!
Death hath now no power o'er us,
Thou hast conquered in the strife.
Thanks because Thou didst arise
And hast opened Paradise!
None can fully sing the glory
Of the resurrection story.
3 Though I be by sin o'ertaken,
Though I lie in helplessness,
Though I be by friends forsaken
And must suffer sore distress,
Though I be despised, contemned,
And by all the world condemned,
Though the dark grave yawn before me,
Yet the light of hope shines o'er me.
4 Thou hast died for my transgression,
All my sins on Thee were laid;
Thou hast won for me salvation,
On the cross my debt was paid.
From the grave I shall arise
And shall meet Thee in the skies.
Death itself is transitory;
I shall lift my head in glory.
5 Grant me grace, O blessed Savior,
And Thy Holy Spirit send
That my walk and my behavior
May be pleasing to the end;
That I may not fall again
Into Death's grim pit and pain,
Whence by grace Thou hast retrieved me
And from which Thou hast relieved me.
6 For the joy Thy advent gave me,
For Thy holy, precious Word;
For Thy Baptism, which doth save me,
For Thy blest Communion board;
For Thy death, the bitter scorn,
For Thy resurrection morn,
Lord, I thank Thee and extol Thee,
And in heaven I shall behold Thee.
Amen. Topics: The Church Year Easter Scripture: Acts 2:32 Languages: English Tune Title: WERDE MUNTER

Duchu Święty z Ciebie płynie
Hymnal: Śpiewnik Ewangelicki #213 (2002) Lyrics: 1 Duchu święty, z Ciebie płynie
światła prawdy jasny blask,
imię Twoje święte słynie
z niezliczonej liczby łask.
Gdy w zamęcie był ten świat
przed początkiem swoich lat,
Ty się nad nim unosiłeś,
zaród życia weń wrzuciłeś.
2 Tyś jest mocą w naszej mdłości,
Tyś najlepszy sercom dar;
niedościgłej Twej mądrości
nie masz granic, nie masz miar.
Ty jej światłem we mnie świeć,
życie nowe w sercu wznieć,
gdzieś przybytek swój naznaczył
pierwej, nimem świat zobaczył.
3 Ty do cnoty mnie zagrzewasz,
Ty się skłaniasz do mych próśb;
Ty na wierny lud swój zlewasz
więcej łask niżeli gróźb.
Racz swe łaski na mnie zlać,
żywot z Boga chciej mi dać,
abym w sercu się odrodził
i w światłości Twoje chodził.
4 Ty przenikasz serc otchłanie,
zgłębiasz tajnie uczuć mych;
Tyś dał ujrzeć prawd świtanie,
Tyś mi siłą w chwilach mdłych.
Światłem życia mego bądź,
sercem moim zawsze rządź,
bym na błędnij eswiat drodze
nie dał stanąć mojej nodze.
5 Bądź mi wsparciem w mym upadku,
gdy się trwoże, przy mnie stój;
dodaj męstwa, gdy w ostatku
będę toczył z śmiercią bój.
A gdy przyjdzie już ten czas,
kiedy z prochu wzbudzisz nas,
daj nam, prosim Cię serdecznie
Boga tam olądać wiecznie.

To Thy Word I now give heed;
Life and spirit Thy Word beareth,
All Thy Word is true indeed.
Death's dread power in me is rife;
Jesus, may Thy Word of Life
Fill my soul with love's strong fervor
That I cling to Thee forever.
2 Oh what blessing to be near Thee
And to hearken to Thy voice!
May I ever love and fear Thee
That Thy Word may be my choice!
Oft were hardened sinners, Lord,
Struck with terror by Thy Word;
But to him who for sin grieveth
Comfort sweet and hope it giveth.
3 Lord, Thy words are waters living
Where I quench my thirsty need.
Lord, Thy words are bread life-giving,
On Thy words my Soul doth feed.
Lord, Thy words shall be my light
Through death's vale and dreary night;
Yea, they are my sword prevailing
And my cup of joy unfailing.

May Thy words take root in me;
May this gift from heav'n enrich me
So that I bear fruit for Thee!
Take them never from my heart
Till I see Thee as Thou art,
When in heav'nly bliss and glory
I shall greet Thee and adore Thee.

Dearest Jesus, Draw Thou near Me
Come, O Sinner, All Is Ready
Author: Christopher Dahl Hymnal: The Hymnal and Order of Service #244 (1926) Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.7.8.8 First Line: "Come, O sinner, all is ready!" Lyrics: 1 "Come, O sinner, all is ready!"
Hear the loving Saviour plead,
From death's dungeon He would free thee,
On the living pathway lead.
Know the Father's will to save:
Yet a day of grace He gave;
Hearken to the voice that calls thee,
Ere His righteous doom befalls thee.
2 If thou to the Lord's entreaties
Close thine ears and lock thy heart,
If thou spurn the hand that beckons
Thee from evil ways apart,
Soon that gentle voice may cease:
Know the things unto thy peace,
Ere the door shall close forever,
thee from heav'nly bliss to sever.
3 But if thou in deep contrition
Ownest to thy helplessness,
Trusting solely in His merit
Who achieved thy righteousness,
Hearken, then, unto His call.
At His table humbly fall,
There receive the food fro heaven
For thy faith's sustention given.
4 Lord and Saviour, keep and guide me
By Thy gospel light, I pray,
That the world by her seductions
Draw me not from Thee away.
In Thy body and Thy blood
Give me now that precious food
Which Thy witness here shall make me,
Till to thine abode Thou take me.

Author: Frederick W. Herzberger, 1859-1930 Hymnal: Lutheran Worship #263 (1982) Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.7.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Send, O Lord, your Holy Spirit
On your servant now, we pray;
Let him prove a faithful shepherd
That no lamb be led astray.
Your pure teaching to proclaim,
To extol your holy name,
And to feed Your lambs, dear Savior,
Make his aim and sole endeavor.
2 You, O Lord, yourself have called him
For your precious lambs to care;
But to prosper in his calling,
He the Spirit's gifts must share.
Give him wisdom from above,
Fill his heart with holy love;
In his weakness, Lord, be near him,
In his prayers, Good Shepherd, hear him.
3 Help, Lord Jesus, help him nourish
All our children with your Word
That in fervent love they serve you
Till in heav'n their song is heard.
Boundless blessings, Lord, bestow
On his faithful toil below
Till by grace to him is given
His reward, the crown of heaven. Topics: Ordination, Installation Languages: English Tune Title: WERDE MUNTER
