When Sinners See Their Lost Condition

Author: Oluf H. Smeby; Magnus B. Landstad Hymnal: The Lutheran Hymnal #65 (1941) Meter: 9.8.9.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 When sinners see their lost condition And feel the pressing load of sin, And Jesus cometh on His mission To heal the sin-sick heart within, All grief must flee before His grace, And joy divine will take its place. 2 When Jesus enters meek and lowly To fill the home with sweetest peace; When hearts have felt His blessing holy And found from sin complete release; Then light and calm within shall reign And hearts divided love again. 3 When Jesus enters land and nation And moves the people with His love; When, yielding to His kind persuasion, Our hearts His truth and blessing prove, Then shall our life on earth be blest, The peace of God on us shall rest. 4 When Jesus comes,--O blessed story!-- He works a change in heart and life; God's kingdom comes with pow'r and glory To young and old, to man and wife; Thro' Sacrament and living Word Faith, love, and hope are now conferred. 5 Then stilled are cries and lamentation, Then loosed is Satan's every band; In death is hope and consolation, The soul is safe in Jesus' hand. When we shall walk through death's dark vale, His rod and staff shall never fail. 6 Oh, may He soon to every nation Find entrance where He is unknown, With life and light and full salvation, That heathendom may be o'erthrown And healing to the hearts may come In heathen land and Christian home! Amen. Topics: The Church Year Advent Scripture: John 20:10-26 Languages: English Tune Title: WER WEISS, WIE NAHE

Hark, how He pleads our souls to win! Who hears His voice--the door unlocking-- To sup with him He enters in. How blest the day, my soul, how blest When Jesus comes to be thy guest. 8 Behold, He at the door is calling, O heed, my soul, what He doth say; Deny Him not--O thought appalling-- And turn Him hot from thee away. My soul gives answer deep within: Thou blessed of the Lord, come in. 9 Come Thou who spreadest joy and gladness, Forever bide with me and mine, And bring to those who sit in sadness And gloom of death Thy light divine. A voice comes from my soul within: Thou blessed of the Lord, come in! Topics: Rejoice; Advent 4 Languages: English Tune Title: WER WEISS, WIE NAHE

M. B. Landstad

1802 - 1880 Person Name: Magnus Brostrup Landstad, 1802-1880 Author of "When Sinners See Their Lost Condition" in Ambassador Hymnal Magnus Brostrup Landstad (born 7 October 1802 in Måsøy, Norway and died 8 October 1880 in Kristiania) was a Norwegian minister, psalmist and poet who published the first collection of authentic Norwegian traditional ballads in 1853. This work was criticized for unscientific methods, but today it is commonly accepted that he contributed significantly to the preservation of the traditional ballads. Landstad lived with his father Hans Landstad (1771–1838) who was also a minister, first in 1806 to Øksnes, to Vinje in 1811 and to Seljord in 1819. He took a theological degree (cand. theol) in 1827, and worked after that as the resident chaplain in Gausdal for six years. After that he worked in different parishes in Telemark, Østfold before he became minister of Sandar in Vestfold in 1859. He married Wilhelmine Margrete Marie Lassen, in 1828. He is well known for introducing popular, contemporary Norwegian language into the hymns he wrote, contributing significantly to the spirit of Norwegian romantic nationalism which grew in Norway in this period. His greatest single achievement was the Landstad Hymnbook (Kirkepsalmebog), which with later revisions was used in Norwegian (bokmål) parishes from 1869 until 1985. The current official church hymnbook contains a lot of his hymns and his translations of foreign hymns. He was the cousin of Hans Peter Schnitler Krag. The Landstad-institute, which lies in Seljord, is named after him. He was a great grandfather of Magny Landstad, also a famous writer. Publications-- 1852: Norske Folkeviser. 3 vols. Christiania: C.
