How shall we show our love to Thee
Author: Isaac Williams Hymnal: Church Book #478 (1890) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Eighteenth Sunday after Trinity Lyrics: 1 How shall we show our love to Thee,
Thou living God most high,
But loving this Thy family,
For which Thou deignedst to die?
2 If Thou for me such Love didst bear,
Shall I not love again?
For all are objects of Thy care;
Thy Love doth all sustain.
3 If we have love for Thee in heaven,
'Tis seen by love on earth:
Love only, love which God hath given,
Doth prove our heavenly birth.
4 For all we know of God above,
And of His saints below,
And all we know of heaven, is Love,
And all we need to know.
5 Love is of life the only sign,
Love is our vital breath;
Love only shows the child divine,
Love only conquers death.
6 Whate'er we do, where'er we go,
Let love our sonship prove:
Our lives the first celestial show,
Our thoughts and words be love.
7 O deign to send the love of Thee
From highest heaven above;
For then our life Thy praise shall be,
When all our life is love.
8 With praise to Thee our strains began,
With love of Thee shall end;
The love of Thee, and love of man,
From heaven O deign to send!

How shall we show our love to Thee
Gud Faders Søn enbaarne
Author: Elisabeth Crutziger; Ukjende Hymnal: Salmebog for Lutherske Kristne i Amerika #100 (1919) Topics: Eighteenth Sunday after Trinity Sunday Lyrics: 1 Guds Faders Søn enbaarne
Af Evighedens Aar,
Den af hans Hjerte kaarne
Til sødest Frelser vor,
Han er den Morgenstjerne,
Oplyser os saa gjerne
Med sit Miskundheds Ord.
2 For os et Menn'ske vorden
I sidst Verdens Tid,
Tvert mod Naturens Orden
Fødd af en Jomfru bild,
Han Djævelen har lænket,
Os Himmerige stjænket,
Alt med dit evig' Liv.
3 O Kristus, du os give,
Vi maatte ret forstaa,
I kristen Tro forblive,
Og dig nu tjene saa,
Vort Hjerte maatte smage
Din Sødhed alle Dage,
Og tørste dig at faa!
4 Du stande skal for Styre
Med Guddoms Magt paa Jord,
Og raader alt med dyre
Og stærke Guddoms Ord:
Dit Lys i os optænde,
Vort Hjerte til dig vende,
Og sluk vor Vantro stor!
5 Du tugte os i Naade,
Styrk os i Troen saa,
At fri fra Helveds Vaade
Guds Børn vi blive maa,
At vi her aldrig mere
End Kristi Ord begjære,
Falsk Lærdom plat forsmaa!
6 Lad alle Synder slukne,
Tag Ondskab af vor Hu,
Den gamle Adam drukne,
Den ny maa leve nu!
At ind til dig vi stræve,
Os selv ei længer leve,
Men lev i os kun du!

Gud Faders Søn enbaarne
Lord, should we leave Thy hallowed feet
Author: George Washington Doane Hymnal: Church Book #227 (1890) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Eighteenth Sunday after Trinity Lyrics: 1 Lord, should we leave Thy hallowed feet,
To whom should we repair?
Where else such holy comforts meet,
As spring eternal there?
2 Earth has no fount of true delight,
No pure perennial stream;
And sorrow's storm, and death's long night,
Obscure life's brightest beam.
3 Unmingled joys 'tis Thine to give,
And undecaying peace:
For Thou canst teach us so to live,
That life shall never cease.
4 Thou only canst the cheering words
Of endless life supply;
Anointed of the Lord of lords,
The Son of God most high! Languages: English Tune Title: DU GOTT BIST ÜBER ALLEN HERR
Lord, should we leave Thy hallowed feet
Store Profet! med den himmelske Lære
Author: Joakim Neander; Brorson Hymnal: Salmebog for Lutherske Kristne i Amerika #539 (1919) Topics: Eighteenth Sunday after Trinity Sunday Lyrics: 1 Store Profet! med den himmelske Lære
Kommen ned til os fra Faderens Skjød,
Lær mig, jeg i dig kan leve og være!
Det er min Længsel, den Lærdom er sød;
Sig mig i Sjælen, naar Helvede bruser,
At du er Manden, som Djævelen knuser!
2 Præst i al Evighed! inderlig stunder
Jeg med an brændende Længsel til dig,
Naar jeg betænker det Kjærligheds Under,
At du et Offer er bleven for mig;
Du er min Talsmand hos Faderen hjemme,
Kan mig, din Eiendom, aldrig forglemme.
3 Mægtigste Konge! vi ville dig ære,
Kjærligheds Strenge, saa stemmer nu i!
Lader os til ham Taksigelse bære,
Ham, som fra Satan os haver gjort fri!
Hersk, o livsaligste Konge, at Dine
Binde kan Seier, og værges for Pine!
4 Nu, saa skal i mig da alting sig fryde,
Jeg som en Kristen vil møde med Sang,
Hjertet skal lege og lystig udbryde,
Stemmes og fremmes i glædelig Klang;
Jeg vil dig prise, o Herligheds Konge!
Alt det, som Aande har, med mig skal sjunge. Languages: Norwegian

Father of all, from whom we trace
Author: Richard Mant Hymnal: Church Book #280 (1890) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Eighteenth Sunday after Trinity Lyrics: 1 Father of all, from whom we trace
Our universal kind,
Teach us to all of human race
To show a brother's mind.
2 Saviour of men, 'twas Thine the pain
Of death for all to bear;
In concord all Thy followers train,
Meet for the name they share.
3 Spirit of grace, God's chosen fold
Who lavest with heavenly dew,
O grant that all, the Truth who hold,
May peace with all pursue.
4 O may mankind in love agree,
Sons or one parent stock;
But chief may Christian verity
Connect the Christian flock!
5 May Truth to all who hear its sound
A bond of union prove;
And fellowship of faith be crowned
With fellowship of love!
6 Paternal Godhead, praise to Thee,
Thy Spirit, and Thy Son!
And keep Thy Church in unity,
As Thou with them art one! Languages: English Tune Title: LANCASTER
Father of all, from whom we trace
'Tis not by works of righteousness
Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran hymnal #256 (1908) Topics: Eighteenth Sunday after Trinity Lyrics: 1 'Tis not by works of righteousness
Which our own hands have done,
But we are saved by sov'reign grace
Abounding thro' His Son.
2 'Tis from the mercy of our God
That all our hopes begin;
'Tis by the water and the blood
Our souls are washed from sin.
3 'Tis through the purchase of His death
Who hung upon the tree,
The Spirit is sent down to breathe
On such dry bones as we.
4 Raised from the dead we live anew.
And, justified by grace,
We shall appear in glory too,
And see our Father's face. Languages: English Tune Title: DUNDEE

O Jesus! King most wonderful
Author: Bernard of Clairvaux; Edward Caswall Hymnal: Church Book #225 (1890) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Eighteenth Sunday after Trinity Lyrics: 1 O Jesus! King most wonderful,
Thou Conqueror renowned;
Thou Sweetness most ineffable,
In whom all joys are found!
2 When once Thou visited the heart,
Then truth begins to shine:
Then earthly vanities depart,
Then kindles love divine.
3 O Jesus, Light of all below!
Thou Fount of life and fire!
Surpassing all the joys we know,
All that we can desire,--
4 May every heart confess Thy Name,
And ever Thee adore;
And, seeking Thee, itself inflame
To seek Thee ore and more.
5 Thee may our tongues forever bless;
Thee may we love alone;
And ever in our lives express
The image of Thine own. Languages: English Tune Title: WINCHESTER
O Jesus! King most wonderful
O that I had a thousand voices!
Author: Johann Mentzer; Dr. Henry Mills Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran hymnal #116 (1908) Topics: Eighteenth Sunday after Trinity Lyrics: 1 O that I had a thousand voices!
A mouth to speak with thousand tongues!
Then, with a heart His praise rejoices,
Would I proclaim in grateful songs
To all, wherever I might be,
What things the Lord hath done for me.
2 Dear Father, endless praise I render,
For soul and body strangely joined;
I praise Thee, Guardian kind and tender,
For all the noble joys I find
So richly spread on every side,
And freely for my use supplied.
3 What equal praises can I offer,
Dear Jesus, for Thy mercy shown?
What pangs, my Savior, didst Thou suffer,
And thus for all my sins atone!
Thy death alone my soul could free
From Satan, to be blest with Thee.
4 Honor and praise, still onward reaching,
Be Thine too, Spirit of all grace,
Whose holy power and faithful teaching
Give me among Thy saints a place:
Whate'er of good in me may shine
Comes only from Thy light divine.
5 Accept, O Lord, I now implore Thee,
The meager praise I give below:
In heaven I better will adore Thee,
When I an angel's strength shall know:
There would I join their sacred praise,
And heav'nly hallelujahs raise. Languages: English Tune Title: ELBE (O dass ich tausend Zungen hätte)
O that I had a thousand voices!
Join all the glorious names
Author: Watts Hymnal: Church Book #219 (1890) Topics: Eighteenth Sunday after Trinity Lyrics: 1 Join all the glorious names
Of wisdom, love, and power,
That ever mortals knew,
That angels ever bore:
All are too mean to speak His worth,
Too mean to set my Saviour forth.
2 But O, what gentle terms,
What condescending ways,
Doth our Redeemer use,
To teach His heavenly grace!
Mine eyes with joy and wonder see
What forms of love He bears for me.
3 Arrayed in mortal flesh,
He like an angel stands;
And holds the promises
And pardons in His hands:
Commissioned from His Father's throne,
To make His grace to mortals known.
4 Great Prophet of my God,
My tongue would bless Thy Name;
Be Thee the joyful news
Of our salvation came;
The joyful news of sins forgiven,
Of hell subdued, and peace with heaven.
5 Be Thou my Counsellor,
My Pattern and my Guide;
And through this desert land
Still keep me near Thy side;
O let my feet ne'er run astray,
Nor rove, nor seek the crooked way! Languages: English Tune Title: LENOX

All glory, praise, and honor
Author: John Mason Neale; Theodulph of Orleans, d. 821 Hymnal: Church Book #214 (1890) Topics: Eighteenth Sunday after Trinity Lyrics: 1 All glory, praise, and honor
To Thee, Redeemer King;
To whom the lips of children
Made sweet hosannas ring.
2 Thou art the King of Israel,
Thou David's royal Son,
Who in the Lord's name comest,
The King and Blessed One!
3 The company of angels
Are praising Thee on high,
And mortal men, and all things
Created, make reply.
4 The people of the Hebrews
With palms before Thee went;
Our praise and prayer and anthems
Before Thee we present.
5 To Thee before Thy Passion
They sang their hymns of praise;
To Thee, now high exalted,
Our melody we raise.
6 Thou didst accept their praises,
Accept the prayers we bring,
Who in all good delightest,
Thou good and gracious King! Languages: English Tune Title: ACH SEY MIT DEINER GNADE
All glory, praise, and honor
