Come, O Sinner, All Is Ready

Hear the loving Saviour plead, From death's dungeon He would free thee, On the living pathway lead. Know the Father's will to save: Yet a day of grace He gave; Hearken to the voice that calls thee, Ere His righteous doom befalls thee. 2 If thou to the Lord's entreaties Close thine ears and lock thy heart, If thou spurn the hand that beckons Thee from evil ways apart, Soon that gentle voice may cease: Know the things unto thy peace, Ere the door shall close forever, thee from heav'nly bliss to sever. 3 But if thou in deep contrition Ownest to thy helplessness, Trusting solely in His merit Who achieved thy righteousness, Hearken, then, unto His call. At His table humbly fall, There receive the food fro heaven For thy faith's sustention given. 4 Lord and Saviour, keep and guide me By Thy gospel light, I pray, That the world by her seductions Draw me not from Thee away. In Thy body and Thy blood Give me now that precious food Which Thy witness here shall make me, Till to thine abode Thou take me.

Johann Schop

1590 - 1667 Composer of "WERDE MUNTER, MEIN GEMÜTHE" in The Hymnal and Order of Service Johann Schop Germany 1590-1667. Born at lower Saxony, Germany, he became a Lutheran composer and violinist, much admired for his virtuoso and technical ability. In 1614 Duke Friedrich Ulrich made him a probationary musician in the Hofkapelle at Wolfenbuttel. He performed playing various instruments, but excelled as a violinist. He was engaged permanently in 1615, but the same year he responded to a summons to join the flourishing musical establishment of King Christian IV of Denmark in Copenhagen. There he met English viol player, William Brade, who had earlier been in service to Hamburg, Germany (and may have taught Schop there). Schops compositions for the violin set impressive demands for that area at that time. He also played other instruments, including the violi, lute, cornet, trombon, trumpet, zinke, and violin (virtuoso). In 1619 Schop and Brade left Copenhagen to escape the plague. He then went to Iburg, where he worked at the courtof the Osnabruck bishop, Philipp Sigismund. Schop had such a reputation that he soon acquired a post as Kapellmeister at an establishment in Hamburg and was the first member of the council music. In 1621 he was its director and the leading municipal violinist in that city, which offered him a substantial income for his participation in the church music program. He also was organist at the Jacobikirche. In 1634 he again traveled to Copenhagen with Heinrich Schutz and Heinrich Albert for the wedding of Crown Prince Christian. He won a violin contest there. Few German violinists were of his caliber musically. He returned to Hamburg, and the Danish king tried several times to woo him back to Denmark, but he stayed in Hamburg, becoming a director of music. He published books of violin music in 4 to 6 parts. He wrote two books of well-loved dance pieces and sacred concertos. He co-founded a school of song writing there in Hamburg with Thomas Selle. Many of his tunes were writtten for fellow townsmen and friend Johann Rist. Some of his music was performed at the Peace of Westphalia celebrations. Some of his tunes were used by chants in a cantata. Schop was married (wife’s name not found) and they had two sons, Johann II, and Albert, who also became musicians. He died in Hamburg. John Perry

Skane, Sweden, 1870; d. Chicago, IL, 1958) prepared the English translation for the 1925 Hymnal of the Lutheran Augustana Synod. As editor, writer, poet, and translator, Olson made a valuable contribution to Swedish-American culture and to church music. His family immigrated to Nebraska when he was five years old, but he spent much of his life in the Chicago area. Educated at Augustana College, Rock Island, Illinois, he was editor of several Swedish-American newspapers and spent most of his professional career as an editor for the Augustana Book Concern (1911-1949). Olson wrote History of the Swedes in Illinois (1908).
