Comfort, Comfort Ye My People

Author: Johannes Olearius; Catherine Winkworth Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #1028 Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.7.8.8 Lyrics: 1. Comfort, comfort ye My people, Speak ye peace, thus saith our God; Comfort those who sit in darkness, Mourning ’neath their sorrow’s load; Speak ye to Jerusalem Of the peace that waits for them; Tell her that her sins I cover, And her warfare now is over. 2. For the herald’s voice is crying In the desert far and near, Bidding all men to repentance, Since the kingdom now is here. O that warning cry obey! Now prepare for God a way! Let the valleys rise to meet Him, And the hills bow down to greet Him. 3. Yea, her sins our God will pardon, Blotting out each dark misdeed; All that well deserved His anger He will no more see nor heed. She has suffered many a day, Now her griefs have passed away, God will change her pining sadness Into ever springing gladness. 4. Make ye straight what long was crooked, Make the rougher places plain: Let your hearts be true and humble, As befits His holy reign, For the glory of the Lord Now o’er the earth is shed abroad, And all flesh shall see the token That His Word is never broken.

Underneath Thy wings abiding, In Thy Church, O Savior dear, Let me dwell, in Thee confiding, Hold me in Thy faith and fear; Take away from me each thought That with wickedness is fraught, Tempting me to disobey Thee, Root it out, O Lord, I pray Thee. 3. Thou, earth’s greatest joy and gladness, And salvation, full and free, Let Thy presence cheer my sadness, And prepare my soul for Thee! In the hour when I depart, Touch my spirit, lips and heart, With Thy Word assure, uphold me Till the heav’nly gates enfold me. Languages: English Tune Title: WERDE MUNTER

Like the Golden Sun Ascending

Author: Thomas H. Kingo; George A. Rygh Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #3773 Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.7.8.8 Lyrics: 1. Like the golden sun ascending, Breaking through the gloom of night, On the earth His glory spending So that darkness takes to flight, Thus my Jesus from the grave And death’s dismal, dreadful cave Rose triumphant Easter morning At the early purple dawning. 2. Thanks to Thee, O Christ victorious! Thanks to Thee, O Lord of Life! Death hath now no power o’er us, Thou hast conquered in the strife. Thanks because Thou didst arise And hast opened Paradise! None can fully sing the glory Of the resurrection story. 3. Though I be by sin o’ertaken, Though I lie in helplessness, Though I be by friends forsaken And must suffer sore distress, Though I be despised, contemned, And by all the world condemned, Though the dark grave yawn before me, Yet the light of hope shines o’er me. 4. Thou hast died for my transgression, All my sins on Thee were laid; Thou hast won for me salvation, On the cross my debt was paid. From the grave I shall arise And shall meet Thee in the skies. Death itself is transitory; I shall lift my head in glory. 5. Grant me grace, O blessèd Savior, And Thy Holy Spirit send That my walk and my behavior May be pleasing to the end; That I may not fall again Into death’s grim pit and pain, Whence by grace Thou hast retrieved me And from which Thou hast relieved me. 6. For the joy Thy advent gave me, For Thy holy, precious Word; For Thy baptism, which doth save me, For Thy blest communion board; For Thy death, the bitter scorn, For Thy resurrection morn, Lord, I thank Thee and extol Thee, And in Heaven I shall behold Thee.

Speak, O Lord, Thy Servant Heareth

Author: Anna Sophia of Hessen-Darmstadt; George A. Rygh Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #6184 Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.7.8.8 Lyrics: 1. Speak, O Lord, Thy servant heareth, To Thy Word I now give heed; Life and spirit Thy Word beareth, All Thy Word is true indeed. Death’s dread pow’r in me is rife; Jesus, may Thy Word of Life Fill my soul with love’s strong fervor That I cling to Thee forever. 2. Oh, what blessing to be near Thee And to hearken to Thy voice; May I ever love and fear Thee That Thy Word may be my choice! Oft were hardened sinners, Lord, Struck with terror by Thy Word; But to him who for sin grieveth Comfort sweet and hope it giveth. 3. Lord, Thy words are waters living Where I quench my thirsty need; Lord, Thy words are bread life-giving, On Thy words my soul doth feed. Lord, Thy words shall be my light Through death’s vale and dreary night; Yea, they are my sword prevailing And my cup of joy unfailing. 4. Precious Jesus, I beseech Thee, May Thy words take root in me; May this gift from Heav’n enrich me So that I bear fruit for Thee! Take them never from my heart Till I see Thee as Thou art, When in heav’nly bliss and glory I shall greet Thee and adore Thee. Languages: English Tune Title: WERDE MUNTER
