The Lord Will Come and Not Be Slow

Author: John Milton, 1608-1674 Hymnal: Lutheran Book of Worship #318 (1978) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Topics: Christian Hope; Christian Hope Lyrics: 1 The Lord will come and not be slow; His footsteps cannot err; Before him righteousness shall go, His royal harbinger. To those who name his name in fear, Salvation is at hand! And soon his glory shall appear And dwell within our land. 2 Then truth shall brighten ev'ry eye Like flowers fresh unfurled; And justice, firmly throned on high, Shall reign throughout the world. O Lord, who made both great and small By power measureless, Arise and come as judge of all; Our wicked ways redress. 3 Then all the lands which you have made Shall come and bend the knee And, bowing low before their Lord, Confess your sovereignty. For greatness, Lord, is yours alone, And, by your mighty hand, The rule established by your throne Forevermore shall stand. Languages: English Tune Title: OLD 107TH

Then fright shall banish idle mirth, And hungry flames shall ravage earth, As Scripture long has warned us. 2 The final trumpet then shall sound, And all the earth be shaken, And all who rest beneath the ground Shall from their sleep awaken. But all who live will in that hour, By God's almighty, boundless pow'r, Be changed at his commanding. 3 May Christ our intercessor be And, through his blood and merit, Read from his book that we are free With all who life inherit. Then we shall see him face to face, With all his saints in that blest place Which he has purchased for us. 4 O Jesus Christ, do not delay, But hasten our salvation; We often tremble on our way In fear and tribulation. Oh, hear and grant our fervent plea; Come, mighty judge, and set us free From death and ev'ry evil. Languages: English Tune Title: ES IST GEWISSLICH

Earth has no pleasure I would share, Yea, heav'n itself were void and bare If thou, Lord, wert not near me. And should my heart for sorrow break, My trust in thee can nothing shake. Thou art the portion I have sought; Thy precious blood my soul has bought. Lord Jesus Christ, My God and Lord, my God and Lord, Forsake me not! I trust thy Word. 2 Yea, Lord, 'twas thy rich bounty gave My body, soul, and all I have In this poor life of labor. Lord, grant that I in ev'ry place May glorify thy lavish grace And help and serve my neighbor. Let no false doctrine me beguile, Let Satan not my soul defile. Give strength and patience unto me To bear my cross and follow thee. Lord Jesus Christ, My God and Lord, my God and Lord, In death thy comfort still afford. 3 Lord, let at last thine angels come, To Abr'hams bosom bear me home, That I may die unfearing; And in its narrow chamber keep My body safe in peaceful sleep Until thy reappearing. And then from death awaken me, That these mine eyes with joy may see, O Son of God, thy glorious face, My Savior and my fount of grace. Lord Jesus Christ, My prayer attend, my prayer attend, And I will praise thee without end! Languages: English Tune Title: HERZLICH LIEB

Author: Augustus M. Toplady, 1740-1778 Hymnal: Lutheran Book of Worship #327 (1978) Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Topics: Christian Hope; Christian Hope Lyrics: 1 Rock of Ages, cleft for me, Let me hide myself in thee; Let the water and the blood, From thy riven side which flowed, Be of sin the double cure: Cleanse me from its guilt and pow'r. 2 Not the labors of my hands Can fulfill thy law's demands; Could my zeal no respite know, Could my tears forever flow, All for sin could not atone; Thou must save, and thou alone. 3 Nothing in my hand I bring; Simply to thy cross I cling. Naked, come to thee for dress; Helpless, look to thee for grace; Foul, I to the fountain fly; Wash me, Savior, or I die. 4 While I draw this fleeting breath, When mine eyelids close in death, When I soar to worlds unknown, See thee on thy judgment throne, Rock of Ages, cleft for me, Let me hide myself in thee.
