Dear Christians, One and All, Rejoice

Author: M. Luther, 1483-1546; R. Massie, 1800-87 Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymnary #378 (1996) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.8.7 Lyrics: 1 Dear Christians, one and all, rejoice, With exultation springing, And, with united heart and voice And holy rapture singing, Proclaim the wonders God hath done, How His right arm the victory won; Right dearly it hath cost Him. 2 Fast bound in Satan's chains I lay; Death brooded darkly o'er me. Sin was my torment night and day; In sin my mother bore me. Yea, deep and deeper still I fell; Life had become a living hell, So firmly sin possessed me. 3 My good works so imperfect were, They had no pow'r to aid me; My will God's judgments could not bear, Yea, prone to evil made me; Grief drove me to despair, and I Had nothing left me but to die; To hell I fast was sinking. 4 But God beheld my wretched state Before the world's foundation, And, mindful of His mercies great, He planned my soul's salvation. A father's heart He turned to me, Sought my redemption fervently: He gave His dearest Treasure. 5 He spoke to His beloved Son: "'Tis time to have compassion. Then go, bright Jewel of My crown, And bring to man salvation. From sin and sorrow set him free; Slay bitter death for him, that he May live with Thee forever." 6 This Son obeyed Him cheerfully, And born of virgin mother, Came down upn the earth to me That He might be my Brother. His mighty power doth work unseen, He came in fashion poor and mean, And took the devil captive. 7 He sweetly said: "Hold fast by me, I am thy Rock and Castle. Thy Ransom I myself will be; For thee I strive and wrestle. For I am with thee, I am thine, And evermore thou shalt be mine; The foe shall not divide us. 8 "The foe shall shed My precious blood, Me of My life bereaving. All this I suffer for thy good; Be steadfast and believing. Life shall from death the vict'ry win, My innocence shall bear thy sin; So art thou blest forever. 9 "Now to My Father I depart, From earth to heav'n ascending, Thence heav'nly wisdom to impart, The Holy Spirit sending. My help to thee extending. He shall in trouble comfort thee, Teach thee to know and follow me And to the truth shall conduct thee. 10 "What I have done and taught, teach thou, My ways forsake thou never; So shall My kingdom flourish now And God be praised forever. Take heed lest men with base alloy The heav'nly treasure should destroy; This counsel I bequeath thee." Topics: Sing!

Dear Christians, One and All, Rejoice

Author: Richard Massie; Martin Luther Hymnal: The Lutheran Hymnal #387 (1941) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.8.7 First Line: Dear Christians, one and all rejoice Lyrics: 1 Dear Christians, one and all, rejoice, With exultation springing, And, with united heart and voice, And holy rapture singing, Proclaim the wonders God hath done, How His right arm the vict'ry won; Right dearly it hath cost Him. 2 Fast bound in Satan’s chains I lay, Death brooded darkly o’er me, Sin was my torment night and day, In sin my mother bore me; Yea, deep and deeper still I fell, Life had become a living hell, So firmly sin possessed me. 3 My own good works availed me naught, No merit they attaining; Free will against God’s judgment fought, Dead to all good remaining. My fears increased till sheer despair Left naught but death to be my share; The pangs of hell I suffered. 4 But God beheld my wretched state Before the world’s foundation, And, mindful of His mercies great, He planned my soul’s salvation. A father’s heart He turned to me, Sought my redemption fervently: He gave His dearest Treasure. 5 He spoke to His beloved Son: ’Tis time to have compassion. Then go, bright Jewel of My crown, And bring to man salvation; From sin and sorrow set him free, Slay bitter death for him that he May live with Thee forever. 6 The Son obeyed His Father’s will, Was born of virgin mother, And God’s good pleasure to fulfill, He came to be my Brother. No garb of pomp or power He wore, A servant’s form, like mine, He bore, To lead the devil captive. 7 To me He spake: Hold fast to Me, I am thy Rock and Castle; Thy Ransom I Myself will be, For thee I strive and wrestle; For I am with thee, I am thine, And evermore thou shalt be Mine: The Foe shall not divide us. 8 The Foe shall shed My precious blood, Me of My life bereaving. All this I suffer for thy good; Be steadfast and believing. Life shall from death the victory win, My innocence shall bear thy sin; So art Thou blest forever. 9 Now to My Father I depart, The Holy Spirit sending And, heavenly wisdom to impart, My help to thee extending. He shall in trouble comfort thee, Teach thee to know and follow Me, And in all truth shall guide thee. 10 What I have done and taught, teach thou, My ways forsake thou never; So shall My kingdom flourish now And God be praised forever. Take heed lest men with base alloy The heavenly treasure should destroy; This counsel I bequeath thee. Amen.
