Rejoice, My heart, Be Glad and Sing

Author: John Kelly; Paul Gerhardt Hymnal: The Lutheran Hymnal #535 (1941) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Rejoice, my heart, be glad and sing, A cheerful trust maintain; For God, the Source of ev'rything, Thy portion shall remain. 2 He is thy Treasure, He thy Joy, Thy Life and Light and Lord, Thy Counselor when doubts annoy, Thy Shield and great Reward. 3 Why spend the day in blank despair, In restless tho't the night? On thy Creator cast thy care; He makes thy burdens light. 4 Did not Hs love and truth and pow'r Watch o'er thy childhood day? Has He not oft in threat'ning hour Turn dreaded ills away? 5 He ever will with patience chide, His rod falls gently down, And all thy sins he casts aside And in the sea doth drown. 6 When silent woe thy bosom rends, His pity sees thy grief, Supplies what to His glory tends And to thine own relief. 7 He knows how oft a Christian weeps And why his tears now fall; And in the book His mercy keeps These things are noted all. 8 His wisdom never plans in vain, Nor falters nor mistakes; All that His counsels did ordain A happy ending makes. 9 Upon thy lips, then, lay thy hand And trust His guiding love; Then like a rock your peace shall stand Here and in heaven above. Amen. Topics: Cross and Comfort Scripture: Psalm 56:8 Languages: English Tune Title: ICH SINGE DIR

Who spread th'expanse of blue? By whom are to our pastures sent Refreshing rain and dew? 5 Who warmeth us in cold and rain? Who shields us from the wind? Who orders it that fruit and grain We in their season find? 6 Who is it life and health bestows? Who keeps us with His hand In golden peace, wards off war’s woes From our dear native land? 7 O Lord, of this and all our store Thou art the Author blest; Thou keepest watch before our door While we securely rest. 8 Thou feedest us from year to year And constant dost abide; With ready help in time of fear Thou standest at our side. 9 Our deepest need dost Thou supply, And all that lasts for aye; Thou leadest us to our home on high When hence we pass away.

I sing with lips and heart, Joy of my soul! to Thee; To earth Thy knowledge I impart, As it is known to me. 2 Thou art the Fount of grace, I know, And spring aye full and free, Whence saving health and goodness flow Each day so bounteously. 3 What have we here, or what are we, Of good what can earth give, That we do not alone from Thee, Our Father, aye receive? 4 The tent-like firmament who builds, Who spreads th’expanse of blue, Who sends to fertilize our fields Refreshing rain and dew? 5 Who warmeth us in cold and frost, Who shields us from the wind, Who orders it that wine and must We in their season find? 6 Who is it life and health bestows, Who keeps us with His hand In golden peace, wards off war’s woes From our dear native land? 7 The work is Thine, my God! my Lord! And Thine must ever be; Before our door Thou keepest guard, In rest we’re kept by Thee. 8 Thou feedest us from year to year And constant dost abide; When danger fills our hearts with fear, With help art at our side. 9 With patience dost Thou ever chide, Nor long Thine anger keep, But castest all our sins aside Into the ocean deep. 10 Whene’er our burdened hearts we raise To Thee, Thou’rt soon appeased; The help Thou send’st shows forth Thy praise, And our sad hearts are eased. 11 Thou mark’st how oft Thy people weep And what their sorrows are; Their tears dost in Thy bottle keep, However small they are. 12 Our deepest needs dost Thou supply, Thou giv’st what lasts for aye, Thou lead’st us to our home on high, When hence we pass away. 13 Awake, my heart, awake and sing, And joyous be thy mood; Thy God who maketh everything Is, and abides thy good— 14 Thy treasure and inheritance! Thy glory and delight! Thy saving health and sure defense! He keeps and guides thee right. 15 Why do thy cares both night and day Grieve thee so bitterly? Upon thy God thy burden lay, Who gave thy life to thee. 16 Hath He not all the weary way From youth till now thee led? Oft chased misfortune’s clouds away That gathered o’er thy head? 17 In all His rule no oversight Can happen, no mistakes; Whate’er He does or leaves is right, A happy issue takes. 18 Let Him work who doth all things well, Nor with Him interfere; And so thou shalt in glory dwell, And peace enjoy while here.
