Comfort, Comfort, O My People

Author: Johann G. Olearius, 1611-1684; Catherine Winkworth, 1827-1878 Hymnal: Journeysongs (3rd ed.) #295 (2012) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Comfort, comfort, O my people, Speak of peace, now says our God; Comfort those who sit in darkness, Mourning 'neath their sorrow's load. Speak unto Jerusalem Of the peace that waits for them; Tell of all the sins I cover, And that warfare now is over. 2 Hark, the voice of one who's crying In the desert far and near, Bidding all to full repentance Since the kingdom now is here. O that warning cry obey! Now prepare for God a way; Let the valleys rise to meet him And the hills bow down to greet him. 3 O make straight what long was crooked, Make the rougher places plain; Let your hearts be true and humble, As befits his holy reign. For the glory of the Lord Now o'er earth is shed abroad; And all flesh shall see the token That his word is never broken.

Come, follow me, the Savior spake

Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymn-book #334 (1918) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Come, follow me, the Savior spake, All in my way abiding; Deny yourselves, the world forsake, Obey my call and guiding; O bear the cross, whate'er betide, Take my example for your guide. 2 I am the Light, I light the way, A virtuous life displaying; Who comes to me and follows, aye, I lead from his dark straying. I am the Way, and well I show How men should sojourn here below. 3 My heart in lowliness abounds, My soul with love is glowing, And from my mouth are words and sounds Of meekness overflowing. My heart, my mind, my strength, my all To God I yield, on Him I call. 4 I teach you to avoid and flee What harms your soul's salvation, Your heart to purify and free From sin's abomination. Your Rock and fortress e'er am I, And lead you to the life on high. 5 But if too hot you find the fray, I, at your side, stand ready; I fight myself, I lead the way, At all times firm and steady. A coward he who will not heed When the chief Captain takes the lead. 6 Who seeks to find His soul's welfare Without me, he shall lose it; But who to lose it may appear, In God shall introduce it. Who bears no cross, nor follows hard, Deserves not me, nor my reward. 7 Then let us follow our dear Lord, Bearing the cross appointed, And bravely cleaving to His Word, In suffering be undaunted. Who has not stood the battle's strain The crown of life shall ne'er obtain. Topics: Sanctification Languages: English

Once In Royal David's City

Author: Mrs. C. F. Alexander Hymnal: The New Christian Hymnal #382 (1929) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.8 First Line: Once in royal David's city Lyrics: 1. Once in royal David's city Stood a lowly cattle shed, Where a mother laid her Baby In a manger for His bed. Mary was that mother mild, Jesus Christ her little Child. 2. He came down to earth from heaven Who is God and Lord of all, And His shelter was a stable, And His cradle was a stall: With the poor, the mean, and lowly, Lived on earth our Savior holy. 3. Not in that poor lowly stable, With the oxen standing by, We shall see Him, but in heaven, Set at God's right hand on high; When like stars His children crowned All in white shall wait around.
