My hope is built on nothing less

Author: Edward Mote Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran hymnal #259 (1908) Topics: The Catechism Justification Lyrics: 1 My hope is built on nothing less Than Jesus' blood and righteousness: I dare not trust the sweetest frame, But wholly lean on Jesus' name. On Christ, the solid Rock, I stand, All other ground is sinking sand. 2 When darkness veils His lovely face, I rest on His unchanging grace; In every high and stormy gale, My anchor holds within the veil. On Christ, the solid Rock, I stand, All other ground is sinking sand. 3 His oath, His covenant, and blood, Support me in the sinking flood; When every earthly prop gives way, He then is all my hope and stay. On Christ, the solid Rock, I stand, All other ground is sinking sand. 4 When shall I launch to worlds unseen, O may I then be found in Him, Dressed in His righteousness alone, Faultless to stand before the throne. On Christ, the solid Rock, I stand, All other ground is sinking sand. Languages: English Tune Title: CONFIDENCE

In love still faithful to the end

Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymnal #262 (1880) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: The Catechism Justification Lyrics: 1 In love still faithful to the end, The Lord approved Himself our Friend, And granted in His last bequest That which through faith gives peace and rest. 2 The night in which He was betrayed, He blessed the bread and cup, and said, Eat, drink, and named the given good: 'This is My Body and My Blood.' 3 Israel's Paschal-feast had long Kept waiting hope in Israel strong, The Lamb of God now gave, instead, Himself as heavenly drink and bread. 4 Keep ye this feast confessing Me, Whose death alone could make you free, Your souls and bodies, dearly bought, Yield not to sin: forget Me not! 5 O may we ne'er unworthy prove Of Jesus' all-enduring love! Nor doubt the Master's work and Word, And thus reject Him as the Lord. 6 His body, once as ransom given, Is proffered her as pledge of heaven; His blood, shed for us on the tree, Here cleanses from iniquity. 7 Lord help our faith to grasp the Word, That we in grace may near Thy board; And here discern what Thou dost give, Partake of life and ever live!

Deck thyself, my soul, with gladness

Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymnal #269 (1880) Topics: The Catechism Holy Communion Lyrics: 1 Deck thyself, my soul, with gladness, Leave the gloomy haunts of sadness; Come into the daylight’s splendor, There with joy thy praises render Unto Him whose grace unbounded Hath this wondrous banquet founded; Higher o’er all the heav’ns He reigneth, Yet to dwell with thee He deigneth. 2 Hasten as a bride to meet Him And with loving rev'rence greet Him; For with words of life immortal Now He knocketh at thy portal. Haste to ope the gates before Him, Saying, while thou dost adore Him, Suffer, Lord, that I receive Thee, And I nevermore will leave Thee. 3 Ah, how hungers all my spirit For the love I do not merit! Oft have I, with sighs fast thronging, Thought upon this food with longing, In the battle well nigh worsted, For this cup of life have thirsted, For the Friend who here invites us And to God Himself unites us. 4 Now I sink before Thee lowly, Filled with joy most deep and holy, As with trembling awe and wonder On Thy mighty works I ponder, How, by mystery surrounded, Depths no man hath ever sounded, None may dare to pierce unbidden Secrets that with Thee are hidden. 5 Nay, though reason here doth ponder, It can never reach this wonder, That this bread is never lessen'd Though it nourish thousands present, That with wine the blood of Jesus Here is giv'n from sin to save us. O these mysteries unsounded Are by God alone expounded! 6 Sun, who all my life dost brighten, Light, who dost my soul enlighten, Joy, the sweetest man e'er knoweth, Fount, whence all my being floweth, At Thy feet I cry, my Maker, Let me be a fit partaker Of this blessed food from heaven, For our good, Thy glory, given. 7 Jesus, Bread of Life, I pray Thee, Let me gladly here obey Thee, Never to my hurt invited, Be Thy love with love requited; From this banquet let me measure, Lord, how vast and deep love's treasure: Through the gifts Thou here dost give me As Thy guest in heaven receive me.
