Author: Charles Albert Tindley Meter: 7.7.15.7.7.11 with refrain Appears in 104 hymnals Topics: Bible-Word of God First Line: We are tossed and driven Refrain First Line: By and by when the morning comes Lyrics: 1 We are tossed and driven on this restless sea of time somber skies and howling tempest oft succeed a bright sunshine; in that land of perfect day, when the mists have rolled away, we will understand it better by and by. Refrain: By and by when the morning comes, when the saints of God are gathered home, we'll tell the story how we overcome, for we'll understand it better by and by. 2 We are often destitute of the things that life demands want of food and want of shelter, thirsty hills and barren lands; we are trusting in the Lord, and according to God's word, we will understand it better by and by. [Refrain] 3 Trials dark on ev'ry hand and we cannot understand all the ways that God would lead us to that blessed promised land but he guides us with his eye, and we'll follow till we die, we will understand it better by and by. [Refrain] 4 Temptations hidden snares often take us unawares, and our hearts are made to bleed for some thoughtless word or deed, and we wonder why the test, when we try to do our best, but we'll understand it better by and by. [Refrain] Used With Tune: BY AND BY

Wir Menschen sind zu dem, o Gott!

Author: David Denicke Appears in 42 hymnals Topics: Songs from the Word of God and the Christian Church Lyrics: 1 Wir Menschen sind zu dem, o Gott! was geistlich ist, untüchtig. Dein Wesen, Wille und Gebot, ist viel zu hoch und wichtig; wir wissen's und verstehen's nicht, wo uns Dein göttlich Wort und Licht den Weg zu Dir nicht weiset. 2 Drum sind vor Zeiten ausgesandt Propheten, Deine Knechte, daß durch dieselben würd' bekannt Dein heil'ger Will' und Rechte: zum letzten ist Dein lieber Sohn, o Vater von des Himmels Thron selbst kommen, uns zu lehren. 3 Für solches, Heil sei, Herr, gepreist, laß uns dabei verbleiben und gieb uns Deinen guten Geist, daß wir dem Worte gläuben, dasselb' annehmen jederzeit mit Sanftmuth, Ehre, Lieb' und Freud', als Gottes, nicht der Menschen. 4 Hilf, daß der losen Spötter Hauf' uns nicht vom Wort abwende; denn ihr Gespött, samt ihnen drauf, mit Schrecken nimmt ein Ende. Gieb Du selbst Deinem Donner Kraft, daß Deine Lehre in uns hast', auch reichlich bei uns wohne. 5 Oeffn' uns die Ohren und das Herz, daß wir das Wort recht fassen, in Lieb und Leid, in Freud und Schmerz, es aus der Acht nicht lassen, daß wir nicht Hörer nur allein des Wortes, sondern Thäter sein, Frucht hundertfältig bringen. 6 Am Wege wird der Saame fort vom Teufel hingenommen: in Fels und Steinen kann das Wort die Wurzel nicht bekommen. Der Saam' so in die Dornen fällt, von Sorg und Wollust dieser Welt verdirbet und ersticket. 7 Ach hilf, Herr, daß wir werden gleich allhier dem guten Lande, und sein an guten Werken reich, in unserm Amt und Stande. Viel Früchte bringen in Geduld, bewahren Deine Lehr' und Huld in seinem guten Herzen. 8 Laß uns, so lang' wir leben hier, den Weg der Sünder meiden; gieb, daß wir halten fest an Dir in Anfechtung und Leiden; rott' aus die Dornen allzumal, hilf uns die Welt-Sorg überall und böse Lüste dämpfen. 9 Dein Wort, o Herr, laß allweg' sein die Leuchte unsern Füßen, erhalt es bei uns klar und rein: hilf, daß wir draus genießen Kraft, Rath und Trost in aller Noth, daß wir im Leben und im Tod beständig darauf trauen. 10 Gott Vater! laß zu Deiner Ehr', Dein Wort sich weit ausbreiten: hilf, Jesu, daß uns Deine Lehr' erleuchten mög' und leiten: o heil'ger Geist, Dein göttlich Wort laß in uns wirken fort und fort: Geduld, Lieb, Hoffnung, Glauben.
