Christian, seek not yet repose

Author: Charlotte Elliot Appears in 208 hymnals Topics: Third Sunday after Trinity Lyrics: 1 Christian, seek not yet repose, Cast thy dreams of ease away, Thou art in the midst of foes, Therefore watch and pray. 2 Gird thy heavenly armor on, Wear it ever, night and day; Near thee lurks the evil one, Therefore watch and pray. 3 Listen to the sorrowing Lord, Him thou loves to obey; It is He who speaks the Word, Therefore watch and pray. 4 'Twas in watching and in prayer, Holy men of olden day Won the palms and crowns they wear; Therefore watch and pray. 5 Watch, for Thou Thy guard must keep; Pray, for God must speed thy way; Narrow is the road and steep, Therefore watch and pray.

O for a faith that will not shrink

Author: William Hiley Bathurst Appears in 712 hymnals Topics: The Catechism Faith; Third Sunday after Epiphany; Second Sunday in Lent; Twenty First Sunday after Trinity Lyrics: 1 O for a faith that will not shrink, Tho' pressed by ev'ry foe, That will not tremble on the brink Of any earthly woe! 2 That will not murmur nor complain Beneath the chast'ning rod, But, in the hour of grief or pain Will lean upon its God; 3 A faith that shines more bright and clear, When tempests rage without; That, when in danger, knows no fear, In darkness, feels no doubt; 4 That bears, unmoved the world’s dread frown, Nor heeds its scornful smile; That seas of trouble cannot drown, Nor Satan’s arts beguile, 5 A faith that keeps the narrow way Till life’s last hour is fled, And with a pure and heavenly ray Lights up a dying bed. 6 Lord, give us such a faith as this, And then, whate’er may come, We’ll taste e’en here the hallowed bliss Of an eternal home.

Jesus er mit Haab og Trøst

Author: Louise Henriette; Fr. Rostgaard Appears in 4 hymnals Topics: Twenty third Sunday after Trinity Sunday Lyrics: 1 Jesus er mit Haab og Trøst, Han, min Frelser, er i Live, Derfor jeg med Fryd og Lyst Al Tid mig tilfreds vil give, Hvad endog mig dødens Stund Gi'r for Tanker mangelund. 2 Jesus Krist, min Frelsermand, Lever vist, og jeg ksla skue Ham i det forjætted' Land, Hvorfor skulde jeg da grue? Han er Hoved, jeg et Lem, Han med sig mig fører hjem. 3 Jeg til ham med Haabets Baand Uopløselig er bunden, Saa skal og minTroes Haand Fæstet i ham blive funden, Saa mig aldrig Døden kan Skille fra min Frelsermand. 4 Jeg er Kjød og ganske vist Maa til Støv og Aske vorde, Men min Frelser, Jesus Krist, Skal opvække mig af Jorde, At jeg maa i Evighed Se ham i hans Herlighed. 5 Da skal atter denne Hud Disse Lemmer omkringgive, Ja i dette Legem Gud Skal af mig tilbedet blive, Og i dette Kjød jeg skal Jesus se i Himlens Sal. 6 Disse mine Øine og Ham, min Frelser, skulle kjende, Jeg, jeg selv–forklaret dog– Af hans Kjærlighed skal brænde, Saa at ingen Del hos mig Være skal forkrænkelig. 7 Hvad her findes sygt og svagt, Friskt og herligt der skal møde, Jordisk vorder jeg nedlagt, Himmelsk staar jeg op af Døde, Her jeg bort naturlig gaar, Der et evigt Liv jeg faar. 8 Mine Lemmer, værer fro! Kristus bærer eder alle; Skal I end i Graven bo, Han herud vil eder kalde, Naar Basunens stærke Lyd Høres til de Frommes Fryd. 9 I kan le ad Satans List Og ad Dødens Garn og Snare, Thi igjennem Luften vist I til Jesus skulle fare, Da skal sorg og alt Mismod Ligge under eders Fod. 10 Kun at eders Aand sig maa Ud fra Verdens Lyster rive, sjælens himmelske Attraa I maa eder overgive! Helliger da eder til Himlen, hvor I være vil!

Commit thy way, confiding

Author: Paul Gerhardt; Rev. Henry Mills, D. D. Appears in 14 hymnals Topics: Third Sunday after Trinity Lyrics: 1 Commit thy way, confiding, When trials here arise, To Him whose hand is guiding The tumults of the skies. There clouds and tempests, raging, Have each their path assigned; Will God, for thee engaging, No way of safety find? 2 Trust in the Lord! His favor Will for thy wants provide; Regard His word!--and ever Thy work shall safe abide. When sorrows here o'ertake thee, And self-inflicted care, Let not thy God forsake thee! He listens for thy prayer. 3 Should Satan league his forces, God's purpose to withstand, Think not their rage and curses Can stay His lifted hand! When He makes known His pleasure, The counsel of His will, That, in its utmost measure, Will He at last fulfill. 4 Hope on then, weak believer, Hope on, and falter not! He will thy soul deliver From deeps of troubled thought. Thy graces will He nourish, With hope thy heart employ, Till faith and hope shall flourish And yield their fruits of joy. 5 Well blest, His grace receiving, God owns thee for a son! With joy, and with thanksgiving, Behold the victor's crown! Thy hand the palm-branch raises, God gives it thee to bear; Then sing aloud His praises, Who has removed thy care. 6 The sorrows, Lord, that try us, O bring them to an end! With needed strength supply us! Thy love to us commend! That we, till death pursuing Thy best, Thy chosen way, May then, our life renewing, Praise Thee in endless day.

Naar mig min Synd vil krænke

Author: Justus Gesenius; Fr. Rostgaard Appears in 6 hymnals Topics: Twenty third Sunday after Trinity Sunday Lyrics: 1 Naar mig min Synd vil krænke, O søde Jesus Krist, Da lad mig vel betænke, At du korsfastet est, Og al min Syndestraf og Ve Har taget da du døde, Med dig paa Korsets Træ. 2 O hvilke dybe Sager, Hvor undres ei min Sjæl, Man Herren ilde plager Istedet for hans Træl! Den Herre Krist og sande Gud For mig fortabte Synder Har Dødsstraf standet ud! 3 Hvad skulde nu mig skrække Min Synd saa mangeled? Nu Jesus vil mig dække Med sin Retfærdighed. Min Skyld betales med hans Død, Saa at jeg ei tør frygte For Helveds Kval og Glød. 4 Thi siges af mit Hjerte, Min Herre Jesus sød, For al din Angst og Smerte Dig Tak indtil min Død, For dine Saar, din blodig Sved, For din uskyldig Pine, Og for din Kjærlighed! 5 Ak, lad din Pinsels Plage Hver Rime og hvert Sted Mig minde, at forsage Al Synds Begjærlighed, Ja lad mig ei evindelig Forglemme hvad det kosted, Da du forløste mig! 6 Hjælp mig med Taal at bære Mit Kors og al Fortræd, Samt Spot og al Vanære, Som jeg bebyrdes med, At jeg al Verden siger af, Og følger det Eksempel, Som du mig, Jesus, gav. 7 Hjælp, at jeg gjør mod Andre, Som du mod mig har gjort, I Kjærlighed kan vandre, Og ikke agte stort, Hvad jeg hengiver i dit Navn Med en god Hjertens Vilje Til mine Brødres Gavn. 8 Og naar min Død tilstunder, Da lad mig finde Trøst I dine Saar og Vunder, Og tro for ganske vist, At som mit Haab er sat til dig, Saa skal jeg dig bekomme, At se evindelig!

Author: J. Neander Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.8.7 Appears in 2 hymnals Topics: The Church Year Twenty-third Sunday after Trinity Lyrics: 1 For help, O whither shall I flee? Who now to peace will guide me? To none, dear Savior, but to Thee, Can I with hope confide me. 'Tis Thine to give the weary rest, The mourning soul in Thee is blest,-- Help, Jesus, the afflicted! 2 My sin, O Lord, is now my grief, Against my will it rages: Thy grace alone an bring relief, While sin its warfare wages, All that I need is known to Thee, And now a part myself can see,-- Help, Jesus, the sin-burdened! 3 Good Shepherd, bearest Thou the weak? Sustain me in my weakness! Thou great Physician of the sick, Heal Thou my moral sickness! A prey to death I helpless fall,-- For health and strength to Thee I call, Save, Jesus, or I perish! 4 To those who trust Thee--"Nothing fear? I am the life!"--Thou criest; Seeks not my soul, with strong desire, The life which Thou suppliest? Though all my sorrows Thou canst lead, In death provide for every need-- Help, Jesus, the confiding. 5 I would do good, but still I fail,-- Must I thus always waver? What grief it gives Thou knowest well. Who shall my soul deliver, And set the salve for ever free From sin and death to live with Thee?-- I thank Thee, God, through Jesus!

Se, jeg er med blandt deres Tal

Appears in 4 hymnals Topics: Twenty-third Sunday after Trinity Sunday For Evening Lyrics: 1 Se, jeg er med blandt deres Tal, Som engang Vidner være skal, Naar Stjernes Lys udslukkes, Jeg vaagne ved Basunens Klang, Og disse Øine skal engang Ved Verdens Fald oplukkes! O Syn! Guds Lyn Himlen tender, Jorden brænder, Verdens Dommer, Krist, Guds Søn, i Skyen kommer! 2 Men jeg skal ham som Frelser se; O, nu forsvinder Stræk og Ve, Nu Dødens sorte Vinger, Maa gjerne slaa omkring min Grav, Det Legeme, som Gud mig gav, Jeg med af Graven bringer. Kald, Gud! Mig ud Af mit Gjemme! Mig din Stemme Skal ei strække, Men til evig Fryd opvække.
