The saints of earth and those above

Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymnal #200 (1880) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: The Catechism The Church Lyrics: 1 The saints on earth and those above But one communion make; Joined to their Lord, in bonds of love, All of His grace partake. 2 One family, we dwell in Him, One church above, beneath; Though now divided by the stream, The narrow stream of death. 3 One army of the living God, To His command we bow; Part of the host have crossed the flood And part are crossing now. 4 Lo! thousands to their endless home Are swiftly borne away; And we are to the margin come, And soon must launch as they. 5 Lord Jesus! be our constant guide! Then, when the word is given, Bid death’s flood its waves divide, And land us safe in heaven. Languages: English

The saints on earth and those above

Author: Isaac Watts; Charles Wesley Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran hymnal #200 (1908) Topics: The Catechism The Church Lyrics: 1 The saints on earth and those above But one communion make; Joined to their Lord, in bonds of love, All of His grace partake. 2 One family, we dwell in Him, One church above, beneath; Though now divided by the stream, The narrow stream of death. 3 One army of the living God, To His command we bow; Part of the host have crossed the flood, And part are crossing now. 4 Lo! thousands to their endless home Are swiftly borne away; And we are to the margin come, And soon must launch as they. 5 Lord Jesus! be our constant Guide!

Prayer is the soul's sincere desire

Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymnal #215 (1880) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: The Catechism Prayer Lyrics: 1 Prayer is the soul's sincere desire, Uttered or unexpressed, The motion of a hidden fire That trembles in the breast. 2 Prayer is the burden of a sigh, The falling of a tear, The upward glancing of an eye, When none but God is near. 3 Prayer is the simplest form of speech That infant lips can try; Prayer the sublimest strains that reach The Majesty on high. 4 Prayer is the Christians' vital breath, The Christians' native air; His watch-word at the gate of death-- He enters heaven with prayer. 5 Prayer is the contrite sinner's voice Returning from his ways, While angels in their songs rejoice, And say, "Behold, he prays."

To Jordan came our Lord, the Christ

Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymnal #220 (1880) Topics: The Catechism Holy Baptism Lyrics: 1 To Jordan came our Lord, the Christ, To do God’s pleasure willing, And there was by St. John baptized, All righteousness fulfilling; There did He consecrate a bath To wash away transgression, And quench the bitterness of death By His own blood and passion; He would a new life give us. 2 So hear ye all and well perceive What God doth call Baptism, And what a Christian should believe Who error shuns and schism: That we should water use, the Lord Declareth it His pleasure; Not simple water, but the Word And Spirit without measure; He is the real Baptizer. 3 To show us this He hath His Word With signs and symbols given; On Jordan’s banks was plainly heard The Father’s voice from heaven: "This is My well-beloved Son, In whom My soul delighteth; Hear Him." Yea, hear Him, every one When He Himself inviteth, Hear and obey His teaching. 4 In tender manhood God the Son In Jordan's water standeth; The Holy Ghost from His own throne In dove-like form descendeth; That thus the truth be not denied,-- Nor should our faith e’er waver,-- That the Three Persons e'er preside, At Baptism’s holy laver, And dwell with the believer. 5 Thus Jesus His disciples sent: Go teach ye every nation, That lost in sin they must repent; And flee from condemnation: He that believes and is baptized Shall thereby have salvation; A new-born man he is in Christ, Is safe from condemnation, And shall inherit heaven. 6 Who in this mercy hath not faith, Nor aught therein discerneth, Is yet in sin, condemned to death, And fire that ever burneth; His holiness avails him not, Nor aught which he is doing; His birth-sin brings all to naught, And maketh sure his ruin; Himself he cannot succor. 7 Blind sense but water sees, and spurns: "Pray, how can water save us?" Faith marks the Word, and well discerns Christ's merits that here lave us; Faith sees this cleansing fountain red With, both from sin inherited From fallen Adam frees us, And sins we have committed.
