Faith of Our Brothers
Author: Susan H. Peterson Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: Faith of our brothers, suffering sore Lyrics: 1. Faith of our brothers, suffering sore,
Enduring prison, famine, and sword,
O Holy Spirit, give comfort, we pray,
May they this day find strength in Thy Word.
Faith of our brothers, holy faith,
May they be true to thee till death!
2. Tortured and killed for Thy dear name,
Lord, give them grace to count all but loss,
May they hold steadfast to the end,
Sharing the sufferings of the cross.
Faith of our brothers, holy faith,
May they be true to thee till death!
3. Our brothers, chained in prisons dark,
Are still in heart and conscience free,
O may they know thy deep, sweet peace,
Fill them with joy for all to see.
Faith of our brothers, holy faith,
May they be true to thee till death!
4. Faith of our brothers! May they love
Both friend and foe in all their strife,
And preach Thee too, as love knows how,
By kindly words and virtuous life.
Faith of our brothers, holy faith,
May they be true to thee till death!
5. And Lord, may we be ready too,
To give our lives, if needed, for Thee,
May we be strong in Thy great strength,
And live each day, committed to Thee.
Faith of all brothers, holy faith,
May we be true to thee till death! Used With Tune: ST. CATHERINE (Walton) Text Sources: From "Faith of Our Fathers"
Faith of Our Brothers
From Whence These Dire Portents Around?
Author: Charles Wesley Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Appears in 1 hymnal Lyrics: 1 From whence these dire portents around,
That strike us with unwonted fear?
Why do these earthquakes rock the ground,
And threaten our destruction near?
Ye prophets smooth, the cause explain,
And lull us to repose again.
2 "Or water swelling for a vent,
Or air impatient to get free,
Or fire within earth’s entrails pent";
Yet all are ordered, Lord, by Thee;
The elements obey Thy nod,
And nature vindicates her God.
3 The pillars of the earth are Thine,
And Thou hast set the world thereon;
They at Thy threatening look incline,
The center trembles at Thy frown;
The everlasting mountains bow,
And God is in the earthquake now!
4 Now, Lord, to shake our guilty land,
Thou dost in indignation rise;
We see, we see Thy lifted hand
Made bare a nation to chastise,
Whom neither plagues nor mercies move
To fear Thy wrath or court Thy love.
5 Therefore the earth beneath us reels,
And staggers like our drunken men,
The earth the mournful cause reveals,
And groans our burden to sustain;
Ordained our evils to deplore,
And fall with us to rise no more. Used With Tune: ST. CATHERINE Text Sources: Hymns Occasioned by the Earthquake, March 8, 1750, second edition, 1756

Felséges, Áldó Istenünk
Author: Charles Wesley; Anna Piroska Williams Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: Felséges, áldó Istenünk! Lyrics: 1 Felséges, áldó Istenünk!
Szent házad vár, lásd, eljövünk!
"Orcád keressük" mondja szánk,
De adhatsz-e áldást miránk?
Mert van, ki itt csak térdet hajt,
Míg mást Hozzád a szíve hajt!
2 Szentlelked az, ki hitre hív,
Ha megérint, más lesz a szív.
Alvókba égi vágyat ad.
Életre kelt Ő holtakat.
Szólj, hogy szívünk felébredjen,
Jézusban ma újjá legyen!
3 Végre már mind ismernénk fel:
Pusztító súly a bűnteher!
Hangzik ma még az Úr szava,
Fordulj Hozzá, míg tart a ma!
Jézustól kapsz gyógyult szívet,
Így lesz újjá az életed.
4 Megtérő szívnek hitet ad,
Így menti meg a juhokat,
Kikért a Pásztor vérezett,
Sírba leszállt, megkeresett.
Megváltott drága vérével!
Megtart e hit—Ővé leszel! Used With Tune: ST. CATHERINE Text Sources: Hymns for the Use of Families, 1767
Felséges, Áldó Istenünk

A mára kapott kegyelem
Elég a ma terhét vigyem.

Adsz új kegyelmet, Rád bízom! Used With Tune: ST. CATHERINE Text Sources: Short Hymns on Select Passages of Holy Scripture, 1762

Who knows how near my end may be?
Author: Catherine Winkworth; Countess Emilia Juliana Appears in 26 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Who knows how near my end may be?
Time speeds away, and death comes on.
How swiftly, ah, how suddenly,
May death be here, and life be gone!
My God, for Jesus' sake I pray
Thy peace may bless my dying day.
2 O Father, cover all my sins
With Jesus' merits, who alone
The pardon that I covet wins,
And makes His long-sought Rest my own.
My God, for Jesus' sake I pray
Thy peace may bless my dying day.
3 Then death may come or tarry yet;
I know in Christ I perish not.
He never will His own forget;
He gives me robes without a spot.
My God, for Jesus' sake I pray
Thy peace may bless my dying day.
4 And thus I live in God at peace,
And die without a thought of fear,
Content to take what God decrees,
For through His Son my faith is clear;
His grace shall be in death my stay,
And peace shall bless my dying day.
Amen. Topics: Death Anticipated; Funerals Used With Tune: ST. CATHERINE
