Why should sorrow ever grieve me?
Author: Paul Gerhardt; John Kelly Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran hymnal #420 (1908) Lyrics: 1 Why should sorrow ever grieve me?
Christ is near,
What can here
E’er of Him deprive me?
Who can rob me of my heaven
That God’s Son,
As mine own,
To my faith hath given?
2 God oft gives me days of gladness,
Shall I grieve
If He give
Seasons too of sadness?
God is good, and tempers ever
Every hurt;
Me desert
Wholly can He never.
3 What is all this life possesseth?
But a hand
Full of sand
That the heart distresseth.
Noble gifts that tire me never,
Christ so free
There gives me
To enjoy forever.
4 Shepherd! Lord! joy's fountain ever,
Thou art mine, I am Thine,
No one can us sever.
I am thine because Thou gavest
Life and blood
For my good,
By Thy death me savest.
5 Thou art mine, I love and own Thee,
Ne'er shall I, Light of joy,
From my heart dethrone Thee.
Let me, let me
Soon behold Thee
Face to face;
Thy embrace,
May it soon enfold me! Topics: Christian Life and Hope The Walk of Godliness: Cross and Consolation; Christian Life and Hope The Walk of Godliness: Cross and Consolation Languages: English Tune Title: LÜNEBURG (Warum sollt' ich mich denn graemen)

Christ is near With his cheer; Never will he leave me.
Who can rob me of the heaven
That God's Son For me won When his life was given?
2 When life's troubles rise to meet me,
Though their weight May be great, They will not defeat me.
God, my loving Savior, sees them;
He who knows All my woes Knows how best to end them.
3 God gives me my days of gladness,
And I will Trust him still When he sends me sadness.
God is good; his love attends me
Day by day, Come what may, Guides me and defends me.

Fröhlich Soll Mein Herze Springen
Author: Paul Gerhardt Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #13504 Meter: 8.8.6.8.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Fröhlich soll mein Herze springen
Dieser Zeit, Da vor Freud’
Alle Engel singen.
Hört, hört, wie mit vollen Chören
Alle Luft Laute ruft:
Christus ist geboren!
2 Heute geht aus seiner Kammer
Gottes Held, Der die Welt
Reisst aus allem Jammer.
Gott wird Mensch dir, Mensch, zugute.
Gottes Kind, Das verbind’t
Sich mit unserm Blute.
3 Sollt’ uns Gott nin können hassen,
Der uns gibt, Was er liebt
Über alle Massen?
Gott gibt, unserm Leid zu wehren,
Seinen Sohn Aus dem Thron
Seiner Macht und Ehren.
4 Sollte von uns sein gekehret,
Der sein Reich und zugleich
Sich uns selbst verehret?
Sollt’ uns Gottes Sohn nicht lieben,
Der jetzt kömmt, Von uns nimmt,
Was uns will betrueben?
5 Hätte vor der Menschen Orden
Unser Heil Einen Greu’l,
Wär’er nicht Mensch worden.
Hätt’ er Lust zu unserm Schaden,
Ei, so würd’ Unsre Bürd’
Er nicht auf sich laden.
6 Er nimmt auf sich, was auf Erden
Wir getan, Gibt sich an,
Unser Lamm zu werden,
Unser Lamm, das für uns stirbet
Und bei Gott für den Tod
Gnad’ und Fried’ erwirbet.
7 Nun, er liegt in seiner Krippen,
Ruft zu sich Mich und dich,
Spricht mit suessen Lippen:
Lasset fahr’n, o liebe Brueder,
Was euch quaelt, Was euch fehlt,
Ich bring’ alles wieder.
8 Ei, so kommt und lasst uns laufen!
Stellt euch ein, Gross und klein,
Eilt mit grossem Haufen!
Liebt den, der vor Liebe brennet;
Schaut den Stern, Der uns gern
Licht und Labsal goennet.
9 Die ihr schwebt in grossen Leiden,
Sehet, hier Ist die Tuer
Zu den wahren Freuden.
Fasst ihn wohl, er wird euch führen
An den Ort, Da hinfort
Euch kein Kreuz wird rühren.
10 Wer sich fühlt beschwert im Herzen,
Wer empfind’t Seine Sünd’
Und Gewissensschmerzen,
Sei getrost, hier wird gefunden,
Der in Eil’ Machet heil
Die vergift’ten Wunden.
11 Die ihr arm seid und elende,
Kommt herbei, Füllet frei
Eures Glaubens Hände!
Hier sind alle guten Gaben
Und das Gold, Da ihr sollt
Euer Herz mit laben.
12 Süsses Heil, lass dich umfangen,
Lass mich dir, Meine Zier,
Unverrückt anhangen!
Du bist meines Lebens Leben;
Nun kann ich Mich durch dich
Wohl zufrieden geben.
13 Meine Schuld kann mich nicht drücken,
Denn du hast Meine Last
All’ auf deinem Rücken.
Kein Fleck ist an mir zu finden,
Ich bin gar Rein und klar
Aller meiner Sünden.
14 Ich bin rein um deinetwillen;
Du gibst g’nug Ehr’ und Schmuck,
Mich darein zu hüllen.
Ich will dich ins Herze schliessen;
O mein Ruhm, Edle Blum’,
Lass dich recht geniessen!
15 Ich will dich mit Fleiss bewahren,
Ich will dir Leben hier,
Dir will ich abfahren;
Mit dir will ich endlich schweben
Voller Freud’ Ohne Zeit
Dort im andern Leben. Languages: German Tune Title: EBELING
