Dear Christians, let us all [one and all] rejoice with exultation
Author: Martin Luther Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymnbook (Lutheran Conference of Missouri and Other States) #d68 (1889) Languages: English
Dear Christians, let us all [one and all] rejoice with exultation
Dear Christians, One and All, Rejoice
Author: Martin Luther, 1483–1546; Richard Massie, 1800–87 Hymnal: One and All Rejoice #244 (2020) 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 has done,
How His right arm the vict’ry won.
What price our ransom 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.
But daily deeper still I fell;
My life became a living hell,
So firmly sin possessed me.
3 God said to His belovèd Son:
“It’s time to have compassion.
Then go, bright jewel of My crown,
And bring to all salvation.
From sin and sorrow set them free;
Slay bitter death for them that they
May live with You forever.”
4 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.
His royal pow’r disguised He bore;
A servant’s form, like mine, He wore
To lead the devil captive.

Author: Martin Luther, 1483-1546 Hymnal: Hymnal and Order of Service #267b (1901) 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;
Deeper 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 power 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 Then God beheld my wretched state
With deep commiseration;
He thought upon His mercy great,
And willed my soul's salvation;
He turned to me a Father's heart;
Not small the cost! to heal my smart,
He gave His best and dearest.
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 Him cheerfully,
And born of virgin mother,
Came down upon 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 victory win,
My innocence shall bear thy sin,
So art thou blest forever."
9 "Now to my Father I depart,
From earth to heaven ascending,
Thence heavenly wisdom to impart,
The Holy Spirit sending:
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 heavenly treasure should destroy;
This counsel I bequeath thee." Topics: Faith and Justification Languages: English Tune Title: AF HIMLENS HÄR DEN HÖGSTES MAKT
Dear Christians one and all Rejoice
Oh, Joy of Joys! God so Did Love
Author: Israel Kolmodin, 1643-1709 Hymnal: Hymnal and Order of Service #268a (1901) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7.5.6.7 Lyrics: 1 Oh, joy of joys! God so did love
This world and show compassion,
That He sent down from heaven above
His Son for our salvation.
So deep in sin this world was bound,
Had God His Son not given,
Our bonds thus riven,
No help had e'er been found,
However man had striven.
2 This doth our hearts now satisfy,
And quiets all our terrors,
That Jesus Christ our Lord did die
To save us from our errors.
O God, Thy love to us is great!
Thy mercies are most tender!
Our sole defender,
None in this earthly state
Thee ample praise can render.
3 He who on Jesus Christ doth trust
Shall happy be in heaven;
The happiness which once was lost
through Jesus Christ is given.
For God His Son did never send
Here for our condemnation:
His incarnation
Had for its gracious end
Our joy and our salvation.
4 But all who turn from Christ away
Shall be condemned forever:
Their doom is sealed this very day,
And death awaits the ever.
For since they willfully refused
Salvation to inherit
Through Jesus' merit,
They stand of sin accused,
And so must suffer for it.
5 All who are faithful unto death
Are given life forever,
The life which is the fruit of faith
In Jesus Christ our Saviour.
Give us, O Lord, the faith to come
And ever cling to Jesus!
When death releases
Our souls, oh, take them home,
To dwell in heavenly places.

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.

The Holy Spirit sending
And, heav'nly wisdom to impart,
My help to you extending.
He will a source of comfort be,
Teach you to know and follow me,
And in all truth will guide you.
10 "What I on earth have lived and taught
Be all your life and teaching;
So shall my kingdom's work be wrought
And honored in your preaching.
Take care that no one's man-made laws
Should e'er destroy the gospel's cause.
This final word I leave you." Topics: Justification; Justification Languages: English Tune Title: NUN FREUT EUCH, LIEBEN CHRISTEN
