Jesus Lives, and So Shall I

Author: Christian F. Gellert; John Dunmore Lang Hymnal: Hymns to the Living God #173 (2017) Meter: 7.8.7.8.7.7 Lyrics: 1 Jesus lives, and so shall I; Death, thy sting is gone forever! He who deigned for me to die lives, the bands of death to sever. He shall raise me with the just: Jesus is my Hope and Trust. 2 Jesus lives, and reigns supreme, and, His kingdom still remaining, I shall also be with Him, ever living, ever reigning. God has promised: be it must: Jesus is my Hope and Trust. 3 Jesus lives, and God extends grace to each returning sinner; rebels He receives as friends and exalts to highest honor. God is True as He is Just; Jesus is my Hope and Trust. 4 Jesus lives, and by His grace, vict'ry o'er my passions giving, I will cleanse my heart and ways, ever to His glory living. Me He raises from the dust; Jesus is my Hope and Trust. 5 Jesus lives! I know full well nought from Him my heart can sever, life nor death nor pow'rs of hell, joy nor grief, henceforth forever. None of all His saints is lost; Jesus is my Hope and Trust. 6 Jesus lives, and death is now but my entrance into glory. Courage, then, my soul, for thou hast a crown of life before thee; thou shalt find thy hopes were just; Jesus is the Christian's Trust.

Jesus Christ, my sure defence

Hymnal: Christian Hymns #180 (1898) Meter: 7.8.7.8.7.7 Lyrics: 1 Jesus Christ, my sure defence And my Saviour, ever liveth; Knowing this, my confidence Rests upon the hope it giveth, Though the night of death be fraught Still with many an anxious thought. 2 Jesus, my Redeemer, lives! I, too, unto life shall waken; He will have me where He is: Should my courage then be shaken? Should I fear? Or can the Head Rise and leave its members dead? 3 Nay, too closely am I bound Unto Him by hope forever; Faith's strong hand the Rock hath found, Grasped it, and will leave it never: Not the ban of death can part From its Lord the trusting heart. 4 I shall see God with these eyes, Shall behold my blessed Savior; I, the selfsame, shall arise, In my flesh see God forever; Then shall wholly disappear Frailties that oppress me here. 5 What now sickens, mourns, and sighs, Christ with Him to glory bringeth; Earthly is the seed and dies, Heavenly from the grave it springeth; Natural is the death we die, Spiritual, our life on high. 6 Saviour, draw away our heart From all pleasures base and hollow; Let us there with Thee have part, Here on earth Thy footsteps follow; Fix our hearts beyond the skies, Whither we ourselves would rise.

Hymnal: Christian Hymns #181 (1898) Meter: 7.8.7.8.7.7 Lyrics: 1 Jesus lives! thy terrors now Can no longer, Death, appall me; Jesus lives! by this I know, From the grave He will recall me. Brighter scenes will then commence: This shall be my confidence. 2 Jesus lives! to Him the throne High o'er heaven and earth is given: I shall go where He is gone, Live and reign with Him in heaven. God is pledged: weak doubtings, hence! This shall be my confidence. 3 Jesus lives! for me He died: Hence will I, to Jesus living, Pure in heart and act abide, Praise to Him and glory giving. Freely God doth aid dispense; This shall be my confidence. 4 Jesus lives! I know full well, Naught from me His Love shall sever; Life, nor death, nor powers of hell, Part me now from Christ forever. God will be a sure defence: This shall be my confidence. 5 Jesus lives! henceforth is death But the gate of Life immortal; This shall calm my trembling breath, When I pass its gloomy portal. Faith shall cry, as fails each sense, "Lord, Thou art my confidence."

Jesus sinners doth receive!

Hymnal: Christian Hymns #182 (1898) Meter: 7.8.7.8.7.7 Lyrics: 1 Jesus sinners doth receive! Let the lost and sorrowing hear it; Though in sin and shame they grieve, And Jehovah's anger merit, Here's what can their woe relieve: Jesus sinners doth receive. 2 No such mercy can we claim; But our blessed Lord hath spoken; He hath sworn by His great Name, And His Word cannot be broken. Heaven is open! O believe Jesus sinners doth receive. 3 As the shepherd seeks to find His lost sheep that from him strayeth, So hath Christ each soul in mind, And for its salvation prayeth; Fain He'd have each wanderer live: Jesus sinners doth receive. 4 Come, then, all by guilt oppressed, Jesus calls, and He would make you God's own children, pure and blest, And to glory He would take you; Think on this, and well believe Jesus sinners doth receive. 5 In my grief I now draw near, All my sinfullness confessing; Saviour, my petition hear, Grant me parden and Thy blessing; Help, O help me to believe Jesus sinners doth receive. 6 Cheered at thought of peace with God, Darkness yields to hopeful brightness Through the merit of Thy blood Scarlet sins are turned to whiteness As I say, and now believe, Jesus sinners doth receive! 7 Now my conscience is at peace; From the Law I stand acquitted; Christ hath purchased my release, And my every sin remitted. Naught remains my soul to grieve: Jesus sinners doth receive. 8 Jesus sinners doth receive, Me hath taken to His favor, Opened heaven that I may live With my Lord at home for ever; And in death this joy I have: Jesus sinners doth receive.

Gentle Shepherd, Thou hast stilled

Hymnal: Christian Hymns #185 (1898) Meter: 7.8.7.8.7.7 Lyrics: 1 Gentle Shepherd, Thou hast stilled Now Thy little lamb’s brief weeping; Oh, how peaceful, pale and mild In its narrow bed ’tis sleeping! And no sigh of anguish sore Heaves that little bosom more. 2 In this world of pain and care, Lord, Thou wouldst no longer leave it: To Thy meadows bright and fair Lovingly Thou dost receive it; Clothed in robes of spotless white, Now it dwells with Thee in light. 3 O Lord Jesus, grant that we There may live where it is living, And the blissful pastures see That its heavenly food are giving; Lost awhile our treasured love, Gained forever, safe above.

God of grace, whose word is sure

Hymnal: Christian Hymns #186 (1898) Meter: 7.8.7.8.7.7 Lyrics: 1 God of grace, whose word is sure, Thou who keepest truth forever, That my trust may rest secure On this ground that wavers never: Let Thy truth be dear to me, That my soul may faithful be. 2 True this word will e'er remain: He who Christ to own refuses, Though he all the world should gain, His immortal soul he loses; For the Saviour will not own Him before the Father's throne. 3 To the banner of the cross I fidelity have plighted; It will be my endless loss If this solemn vow were slighted; Therefore Jesus, none but He, Shall my constant watchword be. 4 Let me, till my latest breath, Christ confess with constant meekness; Let me faithful be till death, Strong in Him 'mid all my weakness: Let me live in Him, and die Heir of mansions in the sky.

Sinners May To Christ Draw Near

Author: J. H. Schrader Hymnal: Hymnal for Church and Home #186 (1927) Meter: 7.8.7.8.7.7 Lyrics: 1 Sinners may to Christ draw near: Let this word of consolation Be proclaimed to every soul In its need of true salvation; Grace and peace are offered here: Sinners may to Christ draw near. 2 Naught but wrath have I deserved, Yet the pledge to me is given In His sure, prophetic word That my home shall be in heaven. Why should I still doubt and fear? Sinners may to Christ draw near. 3 When a sheep hath gone astray, After it the shepherd goeth; Jesus, loving all His own, On the lost His love bestoweth, Lest they stay devoid of cheer: Sinners may to Christ draw near. 4 Come, ye sinners, one and all, Bowed with grief, and sorely stricken; Jesus gives you sure relief, He your fainting hearts can quicken, Though the way seem dark and drear! Sinners may to Christ draw near. 5 Sinners may to Christ draw near; Nor am I bye Him rejected. He hath opened heaven's gate And a place for me selected: For I trust the message clear: Sinners may to Christ draw near.
