Holy God, We Praise Thy Name

Author: C. A. Walworth, 1820-1900 Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymnary #43 (1996) Meter: 7.8.7.8.7.7 Lyrics: 1 Holy God, we praise Thy name; Lord of all, we bow before Thee. All on earth Thy scepter claim, All in heav'n above adore Thee. Infinite Thy vast domain, Everlasting is Thy reign. 2 Hark! the glad celestial hymn Angel choirs above are raising; Cherubim and seraphim, In unceasing chorus praising, Fill the heav'ns with sweet accord: "Holy, holy, holy Lord!" 3 Lo, th'apostles' holy train Join Thy sacred name to hallow; Prophets swell the glad refrain, And the white-robed martyrs follow; And from morn to set of sun Through the Church the song goes on. 4 Holy Father, holy Son, Holy Spirit, three we name Thee, Though in essence only one; Undivided God we claim Thee And, adoring, bend the knee While we own the mystery. 5 King of glory, Thou, O Christ; Son of God, yet born of Mary, For us sinners sacrificed, On the cross our sins didst carry; First to break the bars of death, Thou hast opened heav'n to faith. 6 From Thy high celestial home, Judge of all, again returning, We believe that Thou shalt come On the dreadful Judgment morning When Thy voice shall shake the earth And the startled dead come forth. 7 Spare Thy people, Lord, we pray, By a thousand snares surrounded; Keep us without sin today, Never let us be confounded. Lo, I put my trust in Thee; Never, Lord, abandon me. Topics: Te Deum Languages: English Tune Title: GROSSER GOTT, WIR LOBEN DICH

O how holy is this place

Author: B. Schmolk Hymnal: The Lutheran Hymnary #45 (1913) Meter: 7.8.7.8.7.7 Lyrics: 1 O how holy is this place Where the Lord a house hath given! Here we come before His face; This must be the gate of heaven. Here His Word proclaims His grace. O how holy is this place! 2 Thousand thanks, great God, arise Unto Thee, in grace excelling. Who, though filling all the skies, Yet dost make this house Thy dwelling, And to us dost here dispense Thy pure word and sacraments. 3 Hitherto upon this house Hath salvation surely rested. Here our God hath been with us, And Himself hath manifested. Here His Spirit He hath given To reveal the way to heaven. 4 O how lovely, meet and right In His temple to adore Him! Let us now in Him delight, And with gladness come before Him. Treasures lasting, precious, pure, From above we here secure. 5 Dearest Guest, with us abide, With Thy holy word still feed us; Hitherto by Thee supplied, Still be living waters lead us! Keep Thy Church on earth secure While the earth itself endure. Topics: Close of Service; Worship in General Close of Service; Beginning of Service Tune Title: [O how holy is this place]

What exceeding joy from heaven Hast Thou caused in me to dwell By Thy life for sinners given. Thou hast broke the bands at last Which my yearning soul held fast.

Lord, my praise ascends to Thee For these days of joy and sorrow; They shall end in jubilee On that blest eternal morrow When the Sun of Paradise Shall for me in splendor rise. Rise in joyful faith, my soul! Banish all thy grief and sadness. Strong the stream of life shall roll Through my heart with constant gladness.
