Day of wrath, that Day of mourning!

Author: Thomas de Celano; William Joseph Irons Appears in 109 hymnals Topics: Twenty Sixth Sunday after Trinity Lyrics: 1 Day of wrath, that Day of mourning! See fulfilled the prophet's warning, Heaven and earth in ashes burning! 2 O what fear man's bosom rendeth, When from heaven the Judge descendeth, On whose sentence all dependeth? 3 Wondrous sound the trumpet flingeth, Through earth's sepulchres it ringeth, All before the throne it bringeth. 4 Death is struck, and nature quaking; All creation is awaking, To its Judge an answer making. 5 Lo, the Book, exactly worded, Wherein all hath been recorded; Thence shall judgment be awarded. 6 When the Judge His seat attaineth, And each hidden deed arraigneth, Nothing unavenged remaineth. 7 What shall I, frail man, be pleading? Who for me be interceding, When the just are mercy needing? 8 King of Majesty tremendous, Who dost free salvation send us, Fount of pity, then befriend us! 9 Think, kind Jesus! my salvation Caused Thy wondrous Incarnation; Leave me not to reprobation! 10 Faint and weary thou hast sought me, On the Cross of suff'ring bought me; Shall such grace in vain be brought me? 11 Righteous Judge of retribution, Grant Thy gift of absolution, Ere that day's dread execution. 12 Guilty, now I our my moaning, All my shame with anguish owning! Spare, O God, Thy suppliant, groaning! 13 Thou the woman gavest remission, Heard'st the dying thief's petition: Hopeless else were my condition. 14 Worthless are my prayers and sighing, Yet, good Lord, in grace complying, Rescue me from fires undying! 15 With Thy favored sheep, O place me! Nor amid the goats abase me: But to Thy right hand upraise me. 16 While the wicked are confounded, Doomed to flames of woe unbounded, Call me, with Thy saints surrounded. 17 Bows my heart in meek submission, Strewn with ashes of contrition; Succor Thou my lost condition! 18 Day of sorrows, Day of weeping, When, in dust no longer sleeping, Man awakes in Thy dread keeping! 19 To the Rest Thou didst prepare me, On Thy Cross, O Christ, upbear me? Spare, O God, in mercy spare me! Used With Tune: DIES IRAE, DIES ILLA

Brief life is here our portion

Author: Bernard de Morlaix; John Mason Neale Meter: 7.6 Appears in 249 hymnals Topics: Twenty Sixth Sunday after Trinity Lyrics: 1 Brief life is here our portion; Brief sorrow, short-lived care; The Life that knows no ending, The tearless Life, is there. O happy retribution! Short toil, eternal rest; For mortals and for sinners A mansion with the blest! 2 That we should look, poor wanderers, To have our Home on high! The worms should seek for dwellings Beyond the starry sky! And now we fight the battle, But then shall wear the crown Of full and everlasting And passionless renown. 3 For thee, O dear, dear Country! Mine eyes their vigils keep; For very love, beholding Thy happy name, they weep: The mention of thy glory Is unction to the breast, And medicine in sickness, And love, and life, and rest. 4 Thou hast no shore, fair ocean! Thou hast no time, bright day! Dear fountain of refreshment To pilgrims far away! Upon the Rock of Ages They raise thy holy tower: Thine is the victor's laurel, And thine the golden dower. 5 There glory yet unheard of Shall shed abroad its ray, Resolving all enigmas, An endless Sabbath day. There God, our King and Portion, In fulness of His grace, Shall we behold for ever, And worship face to face! Used With Tune: QUAM DILECTA

The goodly land I see

Author: Thomas Olivers Meter: 6.8.4 Appears in 15 hymnals Topics: Twenty Sixth Sunday after Trinity Lyrics: 1 The goodly land I see, With peace and plenty blest: A land of sacred liberty, And endless rest. There milk and honey flow, And oil and wine abound, And trees of life for ever grow, With mercy crowned. 2 There dwells the Lord our King, The Lord our Righteousness, Triumphant o'er the world and sin, The Prince of Peace; On Zions' sacred height, His kingdom still maintains; And glorious, with His saints in light, For ever reigns. 3 He keeps His own secure; He guards them by His side; Arrays in garments white and pure His spotless Bride; With streams of sacred bliss, With groves of living joys, With all the fruits of paradise, He still supplies. 4 Before the great Three-One They all exulting stand, And tell the wonders He hath done Through all their land: The listening spheres attend, And swell the growing fame; And sing, in songs which never end, The wondrous Name.

When souls draw near the holy wave

Author: Rev. Matthias Loy, D. D. Appears in 4 hymnals Topics: Sixth Sunday after Trinity Lyrics: 1 When souls draw near the holy wave, The Triune God draws near to save; When water flows in His great name, He comes to free from guilt and shame. 2 The water used at God's behest Must yield our souls the promised rest; For where a solemn pledge He gives Whoe'er in faith accepts it, lives. 3 Let us but bid our hearts be still, Nor rise in doubt against His will; The power that made us a breath By simplest means can save from death. 4 With grateful hearts His praise we sing, To whom in life and death we cling, Still trusting in the means He gave Through faith our sinful souls to save.

Death in all this world prevaileth

Author: J. G. Albinus Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.8.7.7 Appears in 1 hymnal Topics: The Church Year Twenty-sixth Sunday after Trinity Lyrics: 1 Death in all this world prevaileth: Human life, a summer flower; Blooms at morn,at even faileth, But there comes a brighter hour. When o'er death shall rise victorious, And appear in forms more glorious, To a better life restored, Who have loved and served their Lord. 2 Jesus yielded up His spirit, And His ransomed people gain Life eternal by His merit; Death has armed his sting in vain. For the unfettered soul ascendeth To the world which never endeth, There without a veil to see God's true face eternally. 3 There is life that knows no sadness, There, a numberless array, White-robed denizens of gladness, Unto God their homage pay: Choir aloud to choir rejoices, Seraphs with delighted voices Holy, holy, holy, sing To their Triune God and King. 4 There the patriarchs abiding, There the prophets all have rest, There the noble twelve residing In their Master's love are blest; There the saints in holy splendor To the Lamb their praises render, Harping sweet in solemn strains "Hallelujah! Jesus reigns." Used With Tune: [Death in all this world prevaileth]

Are we baptiz'd in Christ our Lord

Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 3 hymnals Topics: Sixth Sunday after Trinity Lyrics: 1 Are we baptiz'd in Christ our Lord, And buried in his death; We are from death to life restor'd And live in him by faith. 2 Is Jesus raised from the dead By his Almighty pow'r. As members of that living head, We live to sin no more. 3 We live, but not to sin enslav'd, As once it was our case; From Satan's power we are sav'd, By Jesus and his grace. 4 Our base affections crucified And nail'd unto the tree; And Christ will ever be enjoy'd, Our life and liberty. 5 We are from day to day renew'd, And made in grace to grow: Into the image of our God, And are his children too. 6 Do we thus imitate him here, Whilst here on earth we live; What glories will the Saviour there, Unto his servants give. Scripture: Romans 6:3-11

Our righteousness must far exceed

Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 3 hymnals Topics: Sixth Sunday after Trinity Lyrics: 1 Our righteousness must far exceed That of the Pharisees indeed; It must be of a diff'rent kind, Such as renews the heart and mind. 2 To sing and pray, and make a show, Is what the hypocrite can do; May seem to act the christian part, Yet not the cause of Christ at heart. 3 Where grace divine, reigns not within, The mind is still attach'd to sin; The best devotion, dead and cold, As was the Pharisees of old. 4 But diff'rent is the b'lievers state, He will not live at such a rate; His case unto himself is known, He pleads, no merits of his own. 5 He pleads not for self-righteousness, But all he pleads is pard'ning grade; All which he trusts he shall partake, And that alone for Jesus sake. 6 He gains that faith which works by love, And all within him live and move In Christ his Saviour, and his God, Who hath redeem'd him with his blood. 7 Here is the christian set to view: Lord grant that I may be such too; Grant me that righteousness I need, Which does the Pharisees exceed. Scripture: Matthew 5:20-26

Vær nær hos alle dem, der lide, Og gjør dem Smertens Taare blid! Du er vort Haab, du er vort Skjold Mod Synd og Død og Satans Vold. 5 Din Naades Vinger overskygge Os med din Varetægt og Fred, Lad Aand og Kraft i Landet bygge, Giv Eng og Ager Frugtbarhed! Mod Krigens Sverd beskjærm vor Ro, Din Fred i Hus og Hjerte bo!
