Let us all in God rejoice

Author: Urban Langhans; Rev. Matthias Loy, D. D. Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran hymnal #19 (1908) Topics: Fourth Sunday of Advent Lyrics: 1 Let us all in God rejoice, Who is pleased to save us; Let us praise with heart and voice, For His Son He gave us. 2 He descends to sorrows here As a servant lowly, That in heaven we may appear Princes high and holy. 3 Wealth to give He poor became-- Is not this a wonder? Therefore let us praise His Name While His grace we ponder. 4 Lord! this year Thy favor show, Banish sin and sadness: All who fain would have it so Say Amen with gladness.

All my hope on God is founded

Author: Robert Bridges, 1844-1930; Joachim Neander, 1650-1680 Hymnal: Complete Anglican Hymns Old and New #19 (2000) Meter: 8.7.8.7.3.3.7 Topics: Year A Fourth Sunday Before Advent Lyrics: 1 All my hope on God is founded; he doth still my trust renew. Me through change and chance he guideth, only good and only true. God unknown, he alone calls my heart to be his own. 2 Human pride and earthly glory, sword and crown betray his trust; what with care and toil he buildeth, tow'r and temple, fall to dust. But God's power, hour by hour, is my temple and my towe'r. 3 God's great goodness aye endureth, deep his wisdom, passing thought: splendour, light and life attend him, beauty springeth out of naught. Evermore, from his store new-born worlds rise and adore. 4 Still from earth to God eternal sacrifice of praise be done, high above all praises praising for the gift of Christ his Son. Christ doth call one and all: ye who follow shall not fall. Scripture: 1 Peter 1:21 Languages: English Tune Title: MICHAEL

Du Himmel-Lys, som mørknes ei, Giv, at vi Sandheds Himmelvei Ved dig maa følge gjerne! Dit Skin Hvert Trin Os ledsage, Og forjage Mørkets Tanker, Som i vore Hjerter vanker! 2 Giv Kraft og Virkning ved dit Ord, Som Gud os sendte ned til Jord, Lad det som Luset brænde, At vi Gud Fader og Guds Søn Og Aanden, vores Del saa skjøn, I hellig Enhed kjende! Giv Tro, Giv Ro! Lær at haabe, Hjælp at raabe, Giv vi alle Kunde Jesus Herre kalde! 3 Du Visdoms rige Kildervæld, Som fylder hver gudfrygtig Sjæl, Lær os det her i Live, At vi ved Troens Enighed Med sand indbyrdes Kjærlighed Maa godt Eksempel give! Bøi du Vor Hu Til din Lære, Dig til Ære Hjælp at prise Gud, og hver Mand godt bevise! 4 Staa du os paa vor Vandring bi, Før os selv paa den rette Sti, Lad Foden ikke glide! Giv i vort Løb Bestandighed, Lær os dit Kors med Taalighed I Troens Kraft at lide! Trøst selv Vor Sjæl! I al Sorgen Vær du Borgen, Hvor vi trygge Kan i Nødens Tider bygge! 5 O byre Balsam, ædle Saft, Du os al overflødig Kraft Og Hjerte-Styrkning give, Naar vore Fienders Pileskud Bil os i Striden fordre ud, At vi mag stærke blive! Vor Sjæl Fuld vel, At de Plager, Som den nager, Kan forsvinde, Og vi Lægedom maa finde! 6 Lad os i Troens Hellighed Opnaa vort Lives Maal og Med, Og giv os denne Naade, At vi herefter kjende maa, Hvor vi umulig kan bestaa, Om Kjødet selv maa raade. Drag du Vor Hu, Sjæl og Grunde, At vi stunde Til det Høie, Og vort Hjerte til dig føie! Languages: Norwegian

Gird on thy fleshly mantle now, the weakness of our mortal state with deathless might invigorate. 5 Thy cradle here shall glitter bright, and darkness glow with new-born light, no more shall night extinguish day, where love's bright beams their power display. 6 O Jesu, virgin-born, to thee eternal praise and glory be, whom with the Father we adore and Holy Spirit, evermore.

This shall he do, and can we still despair? Come, let us quickly fling ourselves before him, cast at his feet the burden of our care. 4 Through life and death, through sorrow and through sinning, he shall suffice me, for he hath sufficed: Christ is the end, for Christ was the beginning, Christ the beginning, for the end is Christ.
