I know full well death must befall me

Author: Solomon Franck; Catherine Winkworth Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran hymnal #431 (1908) Topics: Christian Life and Hope The Consummation: Contemplation of Death; Christian Life and Hope The Consummation: Contemplation of Death Lyrics: 1 I know full well death must befall me; I know not when, or where, or how: It may be that my God will call me To-day, to-morrow, even now; Ere yet this present hour is fled, This living body may be dead. 2 I know, --God hath this knowledge given-- To me death is not death, indeed; To me death is a gate to heaven, A bound and end of all my need, A gentle evening, peaceful, blest, When I have passed from toil to rest. 3 Lord, let my soul, with unfeigned gladness, In living faith Thy call await To leave its cave of sin and sadness, And this vain world for heaven's estate; O keep my heart prepared alway, To lay aside this mortal clay. 4 Lord, grant that, by contrition riven, My heart I daily offer Thee, And let me close this life for heaven, Sealed by Thy death and agony: O let Thy death, with passion rife, My comfort be, my balm and life. 5 Lord, daily let me die then, ever; And at the last stand Thou by me, That death may not from Thee sever, But bring me nearer unto Thee! Then welcome my last hour shall be, When, where, and how it pleaseth Thee. Languages: English Tune Title: RUDOLSTADT (Wer weiss wie nahe mir mein Ende)

Death and Resurrection of Christ

Hymnal: The Hartford Selection of Hymns from the Most Approved Authors #LIX (1799) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Christ His death; Christ His death First Line: To break the chains of sin and death Lyrics: 1 To break the chains of sin and death, Our glorious Jesus yields his breath; How strange the conquest, strange to tell, By death he conquers death and hell. 2 While standing in the sinner's stead, Billows of wrath roll e'er his head; Light from the Godhead is withdrawn, And Jesus drinks the cup alone. 3 Legions of angels fill the skies, While our Redeemer bleeds and dies; All nature reels beneath the load, And trembling speaks the wrath of God. 4 The rocks are with convulsions torn, And all the heav'ns in sackcloth mourn; But lo! when the third morning comes, Emmanuel rising, leaves the tombs. 5 The rising God let angels sing, The heavens with Hallelujahs ring: "Worthy the Lamb, who once was slain Let him in pow'r and glory reign." 6 Hail happy morn, which sees him rise, We shout him welcome to the skies, Welcome to glories all his own, And welcome to his father's throne.

My Lord, my Savior lives; Before him death's pale terrors fly, And my faint heart revives. 3 He left his dazzling throne above, He met the tyrant's dart, And (O! amazing power of love;) Receiv'd it in his heart. 4 No more, O grim destroyer, boast, Thy universal sway' To heaven-born souls thy sting is lost, Thy night, the gates of day. 5 Lord, I commit my soul to thee, Accept the sacred trust, Receive this nobler part of me, And watch my sleeping dust: 6 'Till that illustrious morning come, When all thy saints shall rise, And cloth'd in full immortal bloom, Attend thee to the skies. 7 When thy triumphant armies sing The honors of thy name, And heaven's eternal arches ring With glory to the lamb; 8 O let me join the raptur'd lays, And with the blissful throng, Resound salvation, power, and praise, In everlasting song.
