Guide Me, O Thou Great Jehovah

Author: William Williams; Peter Williams Hymnal: Voices Together #606 (2020) Topics: Death and Eternal Life Lyrics: 1 Guide me, O thou great Jehovah, pilgrim through this barren land. I am weak, but thou art mighty; hold me with thy pow’rful hand. Bread of heaven, bread of heaven, feed till I want no more, feed till I want no more. 2 Open now the crystal fountain whence the healing waters flow. Let the fiery, cloudy pillar lead me all my journey through. Strong Deliv’rer, strong Deliv’rer, be thou still my strength and shield, be thou still my strength and shield. 3 When I tread the verge of Jordan, bid my anxious fears subside. Death of death and hell’s destruction, land me safe on Canaan’s side. Songs of praises, songs of praises, I will ever give to thee, I will ever give to thee. Scripture: Exodus 13:17-22 Tune Title: CWM RHONDDA

Ich kann allein nicht gehen, nicht einen Schritt; wo du wirst gehn und stehen, da minn mich mit. 2 In deiner Gnaden hülle mein schwaches Herz, und mach es endlich stille in Freud und Schmerz. Lass ruhn zu deinen Füßen dein schwaches Kind; es will die Augen schließen und folgen blind. 3 Wenn ich auch gar nichts fühle von deiner Macht, du bringst mich doch zum Ziele auch durch die Nacht. So minn denn meine Hände und führe mich bis an mein selig Ende und ewiglich! 1 Take thou my hand and lead me; stay by my side til in thy joy eternal I may abide. Alone I will not wander one single day. Be thou my true companion and with me stay. 2 O cover with thy mercy my poor, weak heart! Let ev’ry thought rebellious from me depart. Permit thy child to linger here at thy feet, and fully trust thy goodness with faith complete. 3 Though naught of thy great power may move my soul, with thee through night and darkness I reach the goal. Take, then, my hand and lead me, stay by my side, and in thy joy eternal I shall abide. Scripture: Psalm 25 Languages: German Tune Title: SO NIMM DENN MEINE HÄNDE

Wherefore should I make my moan

Author: C. Wesley Hymnal: Church Book #559 (1890) Topics: Death and Eternity Burial Lyrics: 1 Wherefore should I make my moan, Now the darling child is dead? He to early rest is gone, He to paradise is fled: I shall go to him, but he Never shall return to me. 2 God forbids his longer stay; God recalls the precious loan; God hath taken him away From my bosom to His own: Surely what He wills is best: Happy in His will I rest. 3 Faith cries out, It is the Lord, Let Him do as seems Him good! Be Thy holy Name adored; Take the gift awhile bestowed; Take the child no longer mine; Thine he is, for ever Thine. Languages: English Tune Title: REDHEAD, 76

For me to live is Jesus

Author: Anna, Countess of Stolberg Hymnal: Hymns of the Evangelical Lutheran Church #30 (1886) Topics: Death And Eternity Lyrics: 1 For me to live is Jesus, to die is gain for me; to Him I gladly yield me, and die right cheerfully. 2 From hence I go with gladness To Christ, my Brother's side, That I may soon be with Him, And e'er with Him abide. 3 I have o'ercome life's crosses, Grief, pain, and sorrow cease, Through His five wounds most holy With God I am at peace. 4 When all my powers are breaking, My breath comes heavily, Nor word more I can utter, Lord, hear my sighs to Thee! 5 When reason, sense, and thinking Fail, like a flickering light, That to and fro doth waver, Ere 'tis extinguished quite: 6 Then let me softly, gently, Lord, fall asleep in Thee, When by Thy will and counsel My last hour comes to me. 7 As to the oak the ivy, So let me cleave to Thee, And live in heavenly glory With Thee eternally. 8 Amen! this wilt Thou, Jesus, Grant graciously to me. Endow me with Thy Spirit, That I fare happily. Languages: English Tune Title: [For me to live is Jesus]

Wake, awake, for night is flying

Author: Ph. Nicolai Hymnal: Church Hymnal for Lutheran Services #63 (1911) Topics: Death And Eternity Lyrics: 1. WAKE, awake, for night is flying, The watchmen on the heights are crying: Awake, Jerusalem, arise! Midnight hears the welcome voices, And at the thrilling cry rejoices; O where are ye, ye virgins wise? The Bridegroom comes, awake! Your lamps with gladness take! Hallelujah! With bridal care Yourselves prepare To meet the Bridegroom, who is near! 2. Zion hears the watchmen singing, And all her heart with joy is springing, She wakes, she rises from her gloom; For her Lord comes down all glorious, The strong in grace, in truth victorious, Her Star is ris'n, her Light is come! Now come Thou Blessed One, Lord Jesus, God's own Son, Hail! Hosanna! The joyful call We answer all, And follow to the nuptial hall. 3. Glory unto Thee be given, By men and by the host of heaven, With harp and cymbal's clearest tone; Of one pearl each shining portal, Where we are with the choir immortal Of angels round Thy dazzling throne. Nor eye hath seen, nor ear Hath yet attained to hear Such great glory; Therefore will we Eternally Sing hymns of joy and praise to Thee. Languages: English
