The Sun Arises Now

Author: Thomas H. Kingo; Paul C. Paulsen Meter: Appears in 7 hymnals Lyrics: 1. The sun arises now, in light and glory And gilds the rugged brow of mountains hoary. Be glad, my soul, and lift thy voice in singing. To God from earth below, thy heart with joy aglow And praises ringing. 2. Like countless grains of sand, beyond all measure, And wide as sea and land is Heaven’s treasure Of grace which Christ, my Lord, each day bestoweth, Which, like refreshing rain, into my soul again Each morning floweth. 3. Keep Thou my soul today from sin and blindness; Surround me on my way with loving-kindness And fill my heart, O God, with joy from Heaven; I then shall ask no more than what Thou hast of yore In wisdom given. 4. Thou knowest best my needs, my sighs Thou heedest; Thy hand Thy children feeds, Thine own Thou leadest. What should I more desire, with Thee deciding The course that I must take, than follow in the wake Where Thou art guiding? Used With Tune: NU RINDER SOLEN OP

Stand fast, my soul, stand fast

Author: Hans Adolf Brorson, 1694-1764 ; P. C. Paulsen Meter: Appears in 4 hymnals Lyrics: Stand fast, my soul, stand fast In Christ, thy Saviour! Lose not the war at last By faint behaviour. It is of no avail That thou hast known Him If when thy foes assail, Thou shalt His banner fail, And thus disown Him. To brandish high thy sword, With calm assurance, And face the devil’s horde With brave endurance, Is meet and well begun, And merits praising. But from the strife to run, When blows thy courage stun, Is most disgracing. Let Satan rave and rage By hosts attended, The war for Christ I wage Until it’s ended. When leaning on His arm With firm reliance, I need not take alarm, To me can come no harm From Hell’s defiance. When Jesus’ love I see, It me constraineth, So that from carnal glee My soul abstaineth. When heaven to me is dear, Its joys attractive, Of hell I have no fear, For Christ, my Lord, is near, In battle active. In just a little while The strife is ended, And I from Satan’s guile For aye defended. Then I, where all is well, In heaven’s glory, Among the saints shall dwell, And with rejoicing tell Salvation’s story.
Stand fast, my soul, stand fast
