Blessed is the man that never
Author: P. Gerhardt; M. B. Landstad Hymnal: The Lutheran Hymnary #455 (1913) Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.7.8.8 Topics: The Church Year Fourteenth Sunday after Trinity; The Church Year Fourteenth Sunday after Trinity Lyrics: 1 Blessed is the man that never
Doth in godless counsel meet;
Nor in sinners' way stands ever,
Nor sits in the scorner's seat,
But on God's all-perfect law
Meditates with holy awe;
Day and night he delves for treasure
In the Word--'tis all his pleasure.
2 As a tree that has been planted
By the flowing waters fair,
In its season e'er is granted
Fruits and foliage to bear,
So is he, the righteous, seen
Ever fruitful, ever green,
And his leaf shall wither never,
All he does shall prosper ever.
3 To the wicked 'tis not given
Such a happy lot to share;
As the chaff by wind is driven
So shall the ungodly fare;
They in judgment shall not stand,
Nor be in the righteous band:
These the Lord forsaketh never,
Those shall be cast off forever.
4 For the Lord His people knoweth,
His pure eyes behold their way,
And the blessing He bestoweth
Is their heritage for aye:
But the wicked ever tend
To their doom and to their end:
God will all the righteous cherish,
But the wicked ones shall perish. Tune Title: [Blessed is the man that never]
Blessed is the man that never
My faith looks up to Thee
Author: R. Palmer Hymnal: The Lutheran Hymnary #456 (1913) Meter: 6.6.4.6.6.6.4 Topics: The Church Year Fourteenth Sunday after Trinity Lyrics: 1 My faith looks up to Thee,
Thou Lamb of Calvary,
Savior divine;
Now hear me while I pray;
Take all my guilt away;
O let me from this day
Be wholly Thine.
2 May Thy rich grace impart
Strength to my fainting heart,
My zeal inspire;
As Thou hast died for me,
O may my love to Thee
Pure, warm, and changeless be,
A living fire.
3 While life's dark maze I tread
And griefs around me spread,
Be Thou my guide;
Bid darkness turn to day,
Wipe sorrow's tears away,
Nor let me ever stray
From Thee aside.
4 When ends life's transient dream,
When death's cold, sullen stream
Shall o'er me roll;
Blest Savior, then, in love,
Fear and distrust remove;
O bear me safe above--
A ransomed soul!
Tune Title: [My faith looks up to Thee]
My faith looks up to Thee
Jesus! Name of wondrous love!
Author: William Walsham How Hymnal: Church Book #223 (1890) Topics: Fourteenth Sunday after Trinity Lyrics: 1 Jesus! Name of wondrous love!
Name all other names above!
Name at which must every knee
Bow in deep humility.
2 Jesus! Name of priceless worth
To the fallen sons of earth,
For the promise that it gave--
"Jesus shall His people save."
3 Jesus! Name of mercy mild,
Given to the holy Child.
When the cup of human woe
First He tasted here below.
4 Jesus! Only Name that's given
Under all the mighty heaven,
Whereby man, to sin enslaved,
Burst his fetters, and is saved.
5 Jesus! Name of wondrous Love!
Human Name of Him above!
Pleading only this we flee,
Helpless, 0 our God, to Thee. Languages: English Tune Title: ROSEFIELD
Jesus! Name of wondrous love!
And wilt Thou pardon, Lord
Author: Joseph of the Studium; John Mason Neale Hymnal: Church Book #358 (1890) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Topics: Fourteenth Sunday after Trinity Lyrics: 1 And wilt Thou pardon, Lord,
A sinner such as I?
Although Thy book his crimes record,
Of such a crimson dye?
2 So deep are they engraved,
So terrible their fear;--
The righteous scarcely shall be saved,
And where shall I appear?
3 O Thou, Physician blest,
Make clean my guilty soul!
And me, by many a sin opprest,
Restore, and keep me whole!
4 I know not how to praise
Thy mercy and Thy love;
But deign Thy servant to upraise,
And I shall learn above. Languages: English Tune Title: ST. BRIDE
And wilt Thou pardon, Lord
The abyss of many a former sin
Author: Joseph of the Studium; John Mason Neale Hymnal: Church Book #359 (1890) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Fourteenth Sunday after Trinity Lyrics: 1 The abyss of many a former sin
Encloses me, and bars me in:
Like billows my transgressions roll;--
Be Thou the Pilot of my soul!
And to salvation’s harbor bring,
Thou Saviour and Thou glorious King!
2 My Father’s heritage abused,
Wasted by lust, by sin misused;
To shame and want and misery brought,
The slave to many a fruitless thought:
I cry to Thee, who lovest men,
O pity and receive again!
3 In hunger now, no more possest
Of that my portion bright and blest,
The exile and the alien see,
Who yet would fain return to Thee!
And save me, Lord, who seek to raise,
To Thy dear Love the hymn of praise!
4 With that saved thief my prayer I make,
Remember for Thy mercy’s sake!
With that poor publican I cry,
Be merciful, O God most high!
With that lost prodigal I fain
Back to my home would turn again!
5 Mourn, mourn, my soul, with earnest care,
And raise to Christ the contrite prayer:—
O Thou who freely wast made poor,
My sorrows and my sins to cure,
Me, poor of all good works, embrace,
Enriching with Thy boundless grace! Languages: English Tune Title: MACCABAEUS
The abyss of many a former sin
My God, I love Thee; not because
Author: Francis Xavier, d. 1552; Edward Caswall Hymnal: Church Book #410 (1890) Topics: Fourteenth Sunday after Trinity Lyrics: 1 My God, I love Thee; not because
I hope for heaven thereby;
Nor because they, who love Thee not,
Must burn eternally.
2 Thou, O my Jesus! Thou didst me
Upon the Cross embrace;
For me didst bear the nails and spear,
And manifold disgrace;
3 And griefs and torments numberless,
And sweat of agony;
E'en death itself--and all for one
Who was Thine enemy.
4 Then why, O blessed Jesus Christ!
Should I not love Thee well?
Not for the sake of winning heaven,
Nor of escaping hell;
5 Not with the hope of gaining aught;
Not seeking a reward;
But, as Thyself hast lovéd me,
O ever loving Lord!
6 E'en so I love Thee, and will love,
And in Thy praise will sing;
Solely because Thou art my God,
And my eternal King. Languages: English Tune Title: CHESHIRE
My God, I love Thee; not because
Is this Jesus, then, the Lord
Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran hymnal #21 (1908) Topics: Fourteenth Sunday after Trinity Lyrics: 1 Is this Jesus, then, the Lord,
Promised since the world began?
Ask the blind to sight restored,
Ask the lame who leaped and ran;
2 Ask the once loathed leper clean,
Ask the dead to life restored:
They will tell thee Christ hath been,--
Christ will ever be--the Lord.
3 Say thou, poor man, hath not He,
As the prophet spake of old,
Preached His Gospel unto thee?
Is not this the Christ foretold?
4 Come unto Him, all ye meek,
Shun not of His cross the shame:
Blest all they His love who seek,
Bearing witness to His Name. Languages: English Tune Title: PLEYEL'S HYMN
Is this Jesus, then, the Lord
The precepts of the Word are pure
Author: Rev. Emanuel Cronenwett, D. D. Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran hymnal #186 (1908) Topics: Fourteenth Sunday after Trinity Lyrics: 1 The precepts of the Word are pure,
Its promises and hopes endure;
That statutes of the Lord are right,
In keeping them is great delight.
2 The teachings of God's Word impart
His gracious counsels to the heart,
And higher principles instil,
And mould anew the heart and will.
3 Lord, Thy commands be our delight,
Thy Gospel be our saving might;
And by thy truth on us impress
The image of Thy holiness.
4 Then will our life, in turn, conform
Unto Thy Word, as guide and norm:
And by our walk it shall appear,
That our profession is sincere.
5 Grace grace for grace to us anew,
To practice still what we hold true;
And grant that what we hold, dear Lord,
Be the pure doctrines of Thy Word. Languages: English Tune Title: MENDON
The precepts of the Word are pure
Deluded souls, that dream of heav'n
Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran hymnal #212 (1908) Topics: Fourteenth Sunday after Trinity Lyrics: 1 Deluded souls, that dream of heav'n,
And make their empty boast
Of inward joys, and sins forgiv'n,
While they are slaves to lust!
2 Vain are our fancies, airy flights,
If faith be cold and dead;
None but a living power unites
To Christ, the living Head:
3 A faith that changes all the heart;
A faith that works by love;
That bids all sinful joys depart,
And lifts the thoughts above.
4 Faith must obey her Father’s will,
As well as trust His grace:
A pard'ning God requires us still
To perfect holiness. Languages: English Tune Title: BYEFIELD
Deluded souls, that dream of heav'n
O for a thousand tongues to sing
Author: C. Wesley Hymnal: Church Book #217 (1890) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Fourteenth Sunday after Trinity Lyrics: 1 O for a thousand tongues to sing
My great Redeemer's praise!
The glories of my God and King,
The triumphs of His grace!
2 My gracious Master and my God,
Assist me to proclaim,
To spread through all the earth abroad
The honors of Thy name.
3 Jesus, the Name that charms our fears,
That bids our sorrows cease;
'Tis music in the sinner's ears,
'Tis life, and health, and peace.
4 He breaks the power of cancelled sin,
He sets the prisoner free;
His blood can make the foulest clean;
His Blood availed for me.
5 Look unto Him, ye nations; own
Your God, ye fallen race;
Look, and be saved through faith alone,
Be justified by grace.
6 See all your sins on Jesus laid;
The Lamb of God was slain:
His soul was once an offering made
For every soul of man.
7 Glory to God, and praise, and love,
Be ever, ever given;
By saints below and saints above,
The Church in earth and heaven. Languages: English Tune Title: ST. MARTIN
O for a thousand tongues to sing
