Help, Savior! help in fear and need

Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymnal. 9th ed. #a410 (1895) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Christian Life and Hope Lyrics: 1 Help, Savior! help in fear and need, Have mercy, to my prayers give heed! I know Thou lov'st me still as Thine, Though 'gainst me the world and hell combine. 2 I trust in Thee, whom I adore; If I have Thee, what need I more? And, O Lord Jesus, Thou art mine: And blest am I that I am Thine! 3 This sweet assurance bids my heart Abide Thy time, till clouds shall part; To Thee I'll trust me wholly then, And cry: Lord, help me! Yea, Amen. Languages: English

In Thy heart and hands, my God

Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymnal. 9th ed. #a419 (1895) Topics: Christian Life and Hope Lyrics: 1 In Thy heart and hands, my God, Calmly now my soul reposes, Waiting patiently the end That Thy aim in all discloses; Stripped of self, how sweet my rest On my loving Father's breast. 2 And my soul repineth not, Well content whate'er befall it; Murmurs, wishes of self-will, Doomed to death, no more enthrall it; Restless thoughts, that fret and crave, Slumber in my Savior's grave. 3 And my soul doth cease from cares, From the thoughts that sore perplex us, That destroy the inner peace, For like sharpest thorns they vex us; He who made her careth well, It but seeks in peace to dwell. 4 And my soul despaireth not, Loves Him most when sad and lonely; Grief that wrings and breaks the heart Comes to those who hate Him only; They who love Him still possess Comfort in their worst distress. 5 And my soul complaineth not, For no pain or fears dismay it, Still she clings to God in faith, Trusts Him, though He seem to slay it. 'T is when flesh and blood repine, Sun of joy, Thou canst not shine. 6 Thus my soul is still and waits, Every murmuring word she hushes, Conqu'ring thus the pain or wrong That the restless spirit crushes; Like a silent ocean, bright With its Maker's praise and light.

O my soul, what means this sadness?

Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymnal. 9th ed. #a423 (1895) Topics: Christian Life and Hope Lyrics: 1 O my soul, what means this sadness? Wherefore art thou thus cast down? Let thy griefs be turned to gladness, Bid thy restless fears be gone; Look to Jesus, And rejoice in His dear name. 2 What though Satan's strong temptations Vex and grieve thee day by day? And thy sinful inclinations Often fill thee with dismay? Thou shalt conquer, Through the Lamb's redeeming blood. 3 Though ten thousand ills beset thee, From without and from within, Jesus saith He'll ne'er forget thee, But will save from hell and sin: He is faithful To perform His gracious word. 4 Though distresses now attend thee, And Thou tread'st the thorny road, His right hand shall still defend thee; Soon He'll bring thee home to God! Therefore praise Him-- Praise thy great Redeemer's name. Languages: English

The path that Jesus trod, Though rough and strait and dark it be, Leads home to Heaven and God. Languages: English

Blessed are the meek and contrite

Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymnal. 9th ed. #a442 (1895) Topics: Christian Life and Hope Lyrics: 1 Blessed are the meek and contrite, Who in Jesus fall asleep; Blessed where the saints forever Their untiring vigils keep; They are from their labors resting; God has wiped away their tears; They are dwelling in the kingdom, Free from all their sins and fears. 2 Blessed are they, saith the Spirit, They are free from toil and care; They the kingdom do inherit, That their Savior doth prepare; They are free from tribulation, And their robes are pure and white; They have safely crossed the river, And have reached the realms of light. 3 Blessed shall they be forever, Endless is their peaceful rest, And the works they have accomplished Of their Lord are richly blest: Blessed is the faithful witness They have borne unto their Lord, While they reap abounding harvests, Promised in His faithful Word.

And not a single soul escape His all-discerning eyes! 2 And from His righteous lips Shall this dread sentence sound; And, through the num'rous guilty throng, Spread black despair around? 3 "Depart from me, accursed, "To everlasting flame, For rebel-angels first prepared, Where mercy never came." 4 How will my heart endure The terrors of that day, When earth and heav'n, before His face, Astonished, shrink away? 5 But ere that trumpet shakes The mansions of the dead, Hark, from the Gospel's cheering sound, What joyful tidings spread! 6 Ye sinners, seek His grace Whose wrath ye cannot bear; Fly to the shelter of His cross, And find salvation there.

For the midnight hour is fleeting;" So with clear voice, they stand repeating: "O where are ye, ye virgins wise; The bridegroom is at hand, Take up your lamps and stand! Hallelujah! Each wedding guest Fit for the feast, Arise, go forth to meet your Lord." 2 Zion hears the watchman's singing, And now with joyous heart upspringing, She stands and on the call attends. Her Friend comes from heaven glorious, Strong in His grace, in truth victorious; Her light shines bright, her star ascends. "Now come, thou Blessed One, Lord Jesus, God's own Son." Hallelujah! We enter all The banquet hall, And feast there with our heavenly King. 3 "Glory unto Thee be given, By men and by the host of heaven, With harps and with the cymbals' tone. Twelve pearls are Thy city's portals, Wherein we dwell with the immortals, With angels high around Thy throne. No eye hath seen such sight, No ear heard such delight, Hallelujah! Thine hour is this, O Heavenly Bliss, Thine now, and shall be evermore!" Languages: English
