We Would See Jesus; Lo! His Star
Author: J. Edgar Park Meter: 11.10.11.10 Appears in 69 hymnals Scripture: Acts 7:56 First Line: We would see Jesus, lo! His star is shining Lyrics: 1 We would see Jesus; lo! His star is shining
Above the stable while the angels sing;
There in a manger on the hay reclining;
Haste, let us lay our gifts before the King.
2 We would see Jesus, Mary's son most holy,
Light of the village life from day to day;
Shining revealed through every task most lowly,
The Christ of God, the Life, the Truth, the Way.
3 We would see Jesus, on the mountain teaching,
With all the list'ning people gathered round;
While birds and flow'rs and sky above are preaching
The blessedness which simple trust has found.
4 We would see Jesus, in His work of healing,
At eventide before the sun was set;
Divine and human, in His deep revealing
Of God and man in loving service met.
5 We would see Jesus; in the early morning,
Still as of old He calleth, "Follow me";
Let us arise, all meaner service scorning;
Lord, we are Thine, we give ourselves to Thee.
Amen. Topics: Christ Life on earth; Dedication of Life; Invitation to Consecration Used With Tune: HENLEY
We Would See Jesus; Lo! His Star
Flung to the Heedless Winds
Author: John A. Messenger; Martin Luther Meter: 6.6.6.6 D Appears in 64 hymnals Scripture: Acts 7:59 Lyrics: 1 Flung to the heedless winds
Or on the waters cast,
The martyrs' ashes, watched,
Shall gathered be at last.
And from that scattered dust,
Around us and abroad,
Shall spring a plenteous seed
Of witnesses for God.
2 The Father hath received
Their latest living breath,
And vain is Satan's boast
Of vict'ry in their death.
Still, still, tho' dead, they speak,
And, trumpet-tongued, proclaim
To many a wak'ning land
The one availing Name.
Amen.

Before the throne of God above
Author: Charitie De Chenez, 1841-1923 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 57 hymnals Scripture: Acts 7:55-56 Lyrics: 1 Before the throne of God above
I have a strong, a perfect plea:
a great High Priest, whose name is Love,
who ever lives and pleads for me.
2 My name is graven on his hands,
my name is written on his heart;
I know that while in heaven he stands
no tongue can bid me thence depart.
3 When Satan tempts me to despair,
and tells me of the guilt within,
upward I look, and see him there
who made an end of all my sin.
4 Because the sinless Saviour died,
my sinful soul is counted free;
for God, the just, is satisfied
to look on him and pardon me.
5 Behold him there! the risen Lamb!
My perfect, spotless righteousness,
the great unchangeable I AM,
the King of glory and of grace!
6 One with himself, I cannot die:
my soul is purchased by his blood;
my life is hid with Christ on high,
with Christ, my Saviour and my God. Topics: Holy Communion Used With Tune: FESTUS

Herr Jesu, nimm meinen Geist auf!
Author: Nicolaus Hermann Appears in 54 hymnals Scripture: Acts 7:38 First Line: Wenn mein Stündlein vorhanden ist Lyrics: 1 Wenn mein Stündlein vorhanden ist
und ich soll fahr'n mein' Straße,
so g'leit Du mich, Herr Jesu Christ,
mit Hülf' mich nicht verlasse.
mein' Seel an meinem letzten End'
befehl ich, Herr, in Deine Händ',
Du wirst sie wohl bewahren.
2 Mein' Sünd' mich werden kränken sehr,
mein G'wissen wird mich nagen,
denn ihr'r sind viel, wie Sand am Meer,
doch will ich nicht verzagen:
gedenk'n will ich an Deinen Tod,
Herr Jesu, Deine Wunden roth
die werden mich erhalten.
3 Ich bin eine Glied an Deinem Leib,
deß tröst ich mich von Herzen,
von Dir ich ungescheiden bleib'
in Todes-Noth und Schmerzen,
wenn ich gleich sterb,' so sterb' ich Dir,
ein ew'ges Leben hast Du mir
mit Deinem Tod erworben.
4 Weil Du vom Tod erstanden bist,
werd ich im Grab nicht bleiben,
mein höchster Trost Dein' Auffahrt ist:
Tods-Furcht kann sie vertreiben:
denn wo Du bist, da komm ich hin,
daß ich stets bei Dir leb' und bin,
drum fahr' ich hin mit Freuden.
5 So fahr' ich hin zu Jesu Christ,
mein'n Arm thu ich ausstrecken,
so schlaf' ich ein, und ruhe fein,
kein Mensch kann mich aufwecken,
denn Jesus Christus, Gottes Sohn,
der wird die Himmelsthür aufthun,
mich führ'n zum ew'gen Leben. Topics: Gesänge über die Gläubige Betrachtung des Todes und der Ewigkeit; Contemplation of Death and Eternity
Herr Jesu, nimm meinen Geist auf!
Resurrection sure
Author: Ray Palmer Appears in 43 hymnals Scripture: Acts 7:59 First Line: When downward to the darksome tomb Lyrics: 1 When downward to the darksome tomb
I thoughtful turn my eyes,
Frail nature trembles at the gloom
And anxious fears arise.
2 Why shrinks my soul?--in death's embrace
Once Jesus captive slept:
And angels, hovering o'er the place,
His lowly pillow kept.
3 Thus shall they guard my sleeping dust,
And, as the Saviour rose,
The grave again shall yield her trust,
And end my deep repose.
4 My Lord, before to glory gone,
Shall bid me come away;
And calm and bright shall break the dawn
Of heaven's eternal day.
5 Then let my faith each fear dispel,
And gild with light the grave;
To him my loftiest praises swell,
Who died, from death to save. Topics: Asleep in Jesus; Death Used With Tune: ST. AGES
