Dieses weiß ich; sollt ich nicht Darum mich zufrieden geben, Was die lange Todesnacht Mir auch für Gedanken macht. 2 Jesus, er mein Heiland, lebt; Ich werd auch das Leben schauen, Sein, wo mein Erlöser schwebt; Warum sollte mir denn grauen? Lässet auch ein Haupt sein Glied, Welches es nicht nach sich zieht? 3Ich bin durch der Hoffnung Band Zu genau mit ihm verbunden, Meine starke Glaubenshand Wird in ihn gelegt befunden, Daß mich auch kein Todesbann Ewig von ihm trennen kann. 4 Ich bin Fleisch und muß daher Auch einmal zu Asche werden; Das gesteh’ ich, doch wird er Mich erwecken aus der Erden, Daß ich in der Herrlichenkeit Um ihn sein mög allezeit. 5 Dieser meiner Augen Licht Wird ihn, meinen Heiland, kennen, Ich, ich selbst, ein Fremder nicht, Werd in seiner Liebe brennen; Nur die Schwachheit um und an Wird von mir sein abgetan. 6 Was hier kranket, seufzt und fleht, Wird dort frisch und herrlich gehen; Irdisch werd ich ausgesät, Himmlisch werd ich auferstehen. Alle Schwachheit, Angst und Pein Wird von mir genommen sein. 7 Seid getrost und hocherfreut, Jesus trägt euch, sein Glieder. Gebt nicht statt der Traurigkeit: Sterbt ihr, Christus ruft euch wieder, Wenn die letzt Posaun erklingt, Die auch durch die Gräber dringt. Used With Tune: RATISBON

Rock of Ages, shelter me

Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Appears in 2,982 hymnals Lyrics: 1. Rock of ages, shelter me, Let me hide myself in thee; Let the water and the blood, From thy wounded side which flowed, Be of sin the double cure, Cleanse me from its guilt and power. 2. Not the labors of my hands Can fulfil thy law's demands; Could my zeal no respite know, Could my tears forever flow, All for sin could not atone; Thou must save, and thou alone. 3. Nothing in my hand I bring, Simply to thy cross I cling; Naked, come to thee for dress, Helpless, look to thee for grace, Black, I to the fountain fly; Wash me, Savior, or I die. 4. While I draw this fleeting breath, When mine eyestrings break in death, When I soar to worlds unknown, See thee on thy judgment throne, Rock of ages, shelter me, Let me hide myself in thee.

Rebels, Who Had Dared to Show

Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Appears in 5 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Rebels, who had dared to show Proud contempt of God Most High, Bound in iron and in woe, Shades of death and darkness night, Humbled low with toil and pain, Fell, and looked for help in vain. 2 To Jehovah then they cried In their trouble and He saved, Threw the prison open wide Where they lay to death enslaved, Bade the gloomy shadows flee, Broke their bonds and set them free. 3 Sons of men, awake to praise God the Lord who reigns above, Gracious in His works and ways, Wondrous in redeeming love; Iron bars He breaks like clay, And the brazen gates give way.
