All Glory Be to God on High

Author: Miss C. Winkworth; N. Decius Hymnal: The New Christian Hymnal #445 (1929) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.8.7 Lyrics: 1. All glory be to God on high, Who hath our race befriended! To us no harm shall now come nigh, The strife at last is ended; God showeth His goodwill tow'rd men, And peace shall dwell on earth again; O thank Him for His goodness! 2. We praise, we worship Thee, we trust, And give Thee thanks forever, O Father, that Thy rule is just, And wise, and changes never; Thy boundless pow'r o'er all things reigns, Done is whate'er Thy will ordains; Well for us that Thou rulest! 3. O Jesus Christ, God's only Son, Who with Thy Father reignest, Thou, who didst save a world undone, Our hope and stay remainest; O Lamb of God, to Thee on high From out our depths we sinners cry, Have mercy on us, Jesus! 4. O Holy Ghost, Thou precious gift, Thou Comforter unfailing, O'er Satan's snares our souls uplift, And let Thy pow'r availing Avert our woes and calm our dread, For us the Svior's blood was shed, We trust in Thee to save us!

Both soul and body bear your part! To God all praise and glory! 5 O ye who name Christ's holy name, Give God all praise and glory: All ye who own his power, proclaim Aloud the wondrous story!

O Death, Where Is Thy Cruel Sting

Author: Justus Gesenius; Geo. Weissel Hymnal: American Lutheran Hymnal #448 (1930) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.8.7 First Line: O death, where is thy cruel sting? Lyrics: 1 O death, where is thy cruel sting? O grave, where is thy power? What harm to us can Satan bring? Why need we fear or cower? All thanks to God who won the fight And saved us from our wretched plight Thro' Jesus Christ, our Savior. 2 How mightily the serpent strove When Christ with him contended! Thro' craftiness awhile he throve, But now his rule is ended. For tho' he bruised the Savior's heel, He yet no mortal thrust could deal; His head is bruised and trodden. 3 He lives, who by the foe was slain And held awhile in prison; His members now shall freedom gain, Since He, their Head, is risen. If heed unto His Word they give, Tho' they were dead, yet shall they live; Nor death nor grave an hold them. 4 If daily we with Christ arise Thro' faith and true repentance, Then may we calmly close our eyes And laugh to scorn death's sentence; For death is shorn of all its pow'rs, While peace and pardon now are ours, Eternal life and glory. 5 Behold the spoils that we possess, For which the Lord has striven: Forgiveness, peace and righteousness, Eternal life in heaven. So here we now with joy abide Till, in the body glorified, We dwell with Him forever. Topics: The Church Year Easter Languages: English Tune Title: DECIUS

Out of the Depths I Cry to Thee

Author: M. Luther, 1483-1546 ; C. Winkworth, 1827-78 Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymnary #452 (1996) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.8.7 Lyrics: 1 Out of the depths I cry to Thee; Lord, hear me I implore Thee! Thy gracious ear incline to me; My prayer let come before Thee. On my misdeeds in mercy look O deign to blot them from Thy book Or who can stand before Thee? 2 Thy love and grace alone avail To blot out my transgression; The best and holiest deeds must fail To break sin's dread oppression. Before Thee none can boasting stand, But all must fear Thy strict demand And live alone by mercy. 3 Therefore my hope is in the Lord And not in mine own merit; It rests upon His faithful Word to them of contrite spirit That He is merciful and just-- This is my comfort and my trust. His help I wait with patience. 4 And though it tarry till the night And till the morning waken, My heart shall never doubt His might Nor count itself forsaken. Do thus, O ye of Israel's seed, Ye of the Spirit born indeed; Wait for your God's appearing. 5 Where'er the greatest sins abound, By grace they are exceeded; Thy helping hand is always found With aid where aid is needed. Our Shepherd good and true is He Who will at last His Israel free From all their sin and sorrow.

The Little While I Linger Here

Author: Franz Mikael Franzen; Rev. Peter Magnus Lindberg Hymnal: The Hymnal and Order of Service #457 (1926) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.8.7 Lyrics: 1 The little while I linger here Should grief and sorrow fret me? No; Jesus is my Shepherd dear, He never will forget me. He gave His life His flock to save, His Spirit and His Word He gave. With these He's ever with us. 2 I hear Him speak, I know His voice, I go where'er He beckons. His own He knows, they are His choice, Their numbers, too, He reckons. And He will seek the straying sheep, The feeble in His bosom keep, And gently raise the fallen. 3 He strengthens me with living bread, With waters sweet and gracious, Which flow from life's great Fountain-head, With peace and joy most precious. Though rough and thorny is my way, If from His path I do not stray, I shall not be forsaken. 4 How vain the worldling's pomp and show, How brief his joys and pleasures! The night approaches now, and lo! We leave all earthly treasures. Then, what are all things here below To Jesus' promise, "Where I go, I will receive you also." Amen.

From depths of woe I raise to thee

Author: Martin Luther Hymnal: Trinity Hymnal #461 (1961) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.8.7 Lyrics: 1 From depths of woe I raise to thee The voice of lamentation; Lord, turn a gracious ear to me And hear my supplication: If thou iniquities dost mark, Our secret sins and misdeeds dark, O who shall stand before thee? 2 To wash away the crimson stain, Grace, grace alone availeth; Our works, alas! are all in vain; In much the best life faileth: No man can glory in thy sight, All must alike confess thy might, And live alone by mercy. 3 Therefore my trust is in the Lord, And not in mine own merit; On him my soul shall rest, his Word Upholds my fainting spirit: His promised mercy is my fort, My comfort and my sweet support; I wait for it with patience. 4 What though I wait the livelong night, And till the dawn appeareth, My heart still trusteth in his might; It doubteth not nor feareth: Do thus, O ye of Israel's seed, Ye of the Spirit born indeed; And wait till God appeareth. 5 Though great our sins and sore our woes His grace much more aboundeth; His helping love no limit knows, Our utmost need it soundeth. Our Shepherd good and true is he, Who will at last his Israel free From all their sin and sorrow. Amen.
