Rock of Ages, cleft for me

Let the Water and the Blood, From Thy riven side which flowed, Be of sin the double cure, Save me, Lord, and make me pure. 2 Not the labors of my hands Can fulfil Thy Law's demands: Could my zeal no respite know, Could my tears for ever flow, All for sin could not atone: Thou must save and Thou alone! 3 Nothing in my hand I bring, Simply to Thy Cross I cling; Naked, come to Thee for dress; Helpless, look to Thee for grace; Foul, I to the Fountain fly; Wash me, Saviour, or I die! 4 While I draw this fleeting breath, When my eyelids close in death, When I soar to worlds unknown, See Thee on Thy judgment throne, Rock of Ages, cleft for me, Let me hide myself in Thee!

It breathes in the air, it shines in the light; it streams from the hills, it descends to the plain, and sweetly distils in the dew and the rain. 5 Frail children of dust, and feeble as frail, in thee do we trust, nor find thee to fail; thy mercies how tender, how firm to the end, Our Maker, Defender, Redeemer, and Friend. 6 O measureless might, ineffable love, while angels delight to hymn thee above, thy humbler creation, though feeble their lays, with true adoration shall sing to thy praise.

Lo! God's truth is thy defense, Light, and hope, and confidence: Trust in God, He'll not deceive you, Pray, and all your foes will leave you. Used With Tune: [When afflictions sore oppress you]

Al den Glans hos Kerubimer Og Herlighed i Serafimer Mod din som Mørkheds Taage er! Et Mønster er du mig, Ak, dan mig efter dig, Min Jehovah, o Jesus kjær! Gjør mig dog her Og hellig, som du hellig er! 2 Stille Jesus, som din Vilje For Faders Vilje bøied stille Og indtil Døden adlød ham! Lad mig vorde ogsaa dydig, Som et umyndigt Barn dig lydig Og sindet efter dig, Guds Lam! Tag Hjertet ganske ind, Gjør Attraa, Sjæl og Sind Taus og stille, o, Jesus kjær! Hjælp, at jeg her I sønlig Aand dig lyder er! 3 Ømme Jesus, uden Slummer, Med megen Uro, Strid og Kummer Dit Øie for os Omhu bar, Hver Dag bar du Livets Møie, Hver Nat saa dig dit Knæ at bøie, Den Bøn til Gud din Hvile var! Meg og, aarvaagen gjør, Og at jeg, som jeg bør Flittig bede, o Jesus kjær! Giv, at jeg her Dit Villed stedse hos mig bær! 4 Milde Jesus, ak hvor herlig Er dog din Naade, og hvor kjærlig Er du mod Uven og mod Ven! Klare Lys for Hjerters Mørke Og frugtbar Regn for Sjæles Tørke, Hvor liden Tak du saar igjen! Min Jesus, lær du mig, At jeg i Godhed dig Maa paaslægte, o Jesus kjær! Giv, at jeg her Som du mod alle kjærlig er! 5 Fromme Jesus, du forhaanet Og ei for Had og Spot blev skaanet, Lod dog ei Hevn, ei Vrede se! Stille Mod, hvo saa dets Lige, Som ikkun for din Faders Rige Og Hus sig nidkjær vilde te! Min Jesus, prent mig ind Et saget, nidkjært Sind For din Ære, o Jesus kjær! Gid, at jeg her From og sagtmodig stedse er! 6 Sæle Jesus, hvad for Smerte, Stod du ei ud med roligt Hjerte Udi din dybe Ydmyghed! Pint du blev og plaget ilde, Men, dyre Lam, du taug dog stille, Holdt dig i Faders Lydighed! Bind, Jesus, ved din Aand Mig og med sige Baand, Naar jeg lider, o Jesus kjær! Hjælp, at jeg her Altid som du taalmdoig er! 7 Ærens Konge, du hernede Ei selv dig Ære vil berede, Nei, du fornedred dig i Alt! Hovmods Aand ei dig ophøied, Men dybt i Ydmyghed nedbøied, Du tog en ringe Træls Gestalt! O, slaa min Hovmod ned Og giv mig Ydmyghed Ved din Naade, o Jesus kjær! Giv, at jeg her, Som du, af Hjertet ydmyg er! 8 Rene Jesus, Kydskheds Kilde, Som os et Mønster give vilde End fremfor Adams Renhdes Stand! Lemmer, Sjæl og Sind og Sæder, Ja Øiesyn og Gang og Klæder Regjerte Hellighedens Aand! O, min Immanuel! Gjør og mit Liv, min Sjæl Kydsk og hellig! o Jesus kjær, Mig stedse lær At ligne dig i Kydskhed her! 9 Rige Jesus, du med Ringe Din Tørst og Hunger kunde tvinge, Men af din Haand blev Andre mæt! Lysten, som dig kunde røre, Var Faders Vilje at fuldføre; Det var din Mod, din bedste Ret! Vend, søde Sjæleven, Min Hunger til dig hen! Sjælens Manna, o Jesus kjær! Lær mig især, Naar jeg dig har, at nøies her! 10 Dyre Jesus, kom, velsigne Mit Hjerte, lad i Alt mig ligne Din Hellighed, dit Billede! Aandens Kraft mig saa regjere, At Troens Frugt dig maatte hædre, Og jeg dit rige værd mig te! O, Jesus, drag du mig Alt mer og mer til dig! Sjælens Konge, kom i mig bo, Og lad min Tro I dig kun finde evig Ro! Text Sources: Barth. Crasselius efter Jodokus von Lodenstein

Den Vei, du gik i Kors og Trang

Author: Bogislaus v. Bonin; Brorson Appears in 4 hymnals Topics: Second Sunday in Lent Lyrics: 1 Den Vei, du gik i Kors og Trang, I Bøn og Strid og Møie, Mine Jesus, Livets snevre Gang, Lad mig den kjende nøie! Om ogsaa Kjød og Blod Vil sætte sig imod, Jeg dog frimodig haster frem, Og stræver kun til Himlen hjem. 2 O, lad mig, som din Naades Kar, Af Naade overflyde! Den arme Verden intet har, Som Sjælen ret kan fryde. Mit Liv, mit Himmerig, O, drag mig efter dig, At jeg dig trolig følge maa, Og ei i Verden stille staa! 3 Dit Lys bestraale Korsets Dal, Og altid for mig brænde, Paa det at jeg fra Dines Tal Mig aldrig lader vende, Men følger op og ned Med stor Frimodighed, Og, tænker paa, hvor hardt det var For dig, da du min Pine bar! 4 Hvor vil jeg glædes da engang, Naar jeg dig tro er blevet, At ingen Møie, Spot og Trang Har mig tilbage drevet, At jeg dit Ord og Røst Har ene fulgt med Lyst, Og frem for al Ting sat mig for At træde kun i dine Spor. 5 Nu vel, jeg vover paa dit Ord, Og vælger Torner dine! Jeg veed, de roser, derpaa gror, Forsøder al min Pine, At trængsel gjør mig godt, Er Vei til Ærens Slot. O, hvor er den dog himmelklog, Som favner Jesu søde Aag!
