Help me, O Lord, to trust in Thee

Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymnal #422 (1880) Topics: Christian Life and Hope Lyrics: 1 Help me, O Lord, to trust in Thee, Whatever may betide; Though health should fail, and riches flee, Though friends, the dearest far to me, Be taken from my side. 2 I know that sickness, sorrow, death, Lie in the onward way; O help me, in true-hearted faith, To rest on Jesus' word, which saith, "Strength shall be as thy day." 3 In sickness passed, in dangers o'er, My Helper Thou hast been; Then should I, for each coming hour, Trust childlike that thy love and power Support will yield again. 4 Though in that last, that darksome glade, Ends all our earthly view, If but Thy voice, "Be not afraid," Be heard amid its deepening shade, I'll calmly journey through. 5 When this poor heart on Thee I stay, On earth is heaven begun; Then love leads on from day to day In duty's path and helps me say, "Thy will, not mine, be done." 6 Thus would I ever trust in Thee, My Comforter and Guide: For e'en though fears and sins prevail, Thy promises can never fail, Whatever may betide.

O my soul, what means this sadness?

Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymnal #423 (1880) 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

Blessed are the meek and contrite

Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymnal #442 (1880) 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.

"Wake, arise!" the voice is calling

Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymnal #462 (1880) Topics: Christian Life and Hope Lyrics: 1 "Wake, arise!" the voice is calling; The watchman's voice on quick ear falling, "Jerusalem, awake, arise! 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

Sweet fields arrayed in living green, And rivers of delight! 3 O'er all those wide extended plains Shines one eternal day; There God, the Sun, forever reigns, And scatters night away. 4 No chilling winds, no poisonous breath, Can reach that healthful shore; Sickness and sorrow, pain and death, Are felt and feared no more. 5 When shall I reach that happy place, And be forever blest? When shall I see my Father's face, And in His bosom rest? Languages: English

I’ve Canaan’s goodly land in view, And realms of endless day. 5 Apostles, martyrs, prophets, there Around my Savior stand; And soon my friends in Christ below, Will join the glorious band. 6 Jerusalem! my happy home! My soul still pants for Thee; Then shall my labors have an end, When I thy joys shall see. Languages: English
