Du Livsens Brød, Immanuel
Author: J. Rist; Ukj.; J. Arnd Appears in 6 hymnals Topics: By Eucharist Lyrics: 1 Du Livsens Brød, Immanuel,
Maa dig en Synder have,
Som kommer med en hungrig Sjæl,
Og trænger til din Gave,
Saa beder jeg ydmygelig,
Du vilde selv berede mig
En værdig Gjest at blive!
2 Paa grønne Enge lede du
Idag min Sjæl til Føde,
Indgyde i min Aand og Hu
De Livsens Strømme søde!
Her er jeg, syndig, arm og træt,
Kom, vederkvæg mig med en Reet
Udaf din Naades Fylde!
3 Du hjertesøde Himmel-Brød,
Tilsted, at jeg maa skrige
Til dig i Hungers haarde Nød,
Jeg finder ei din Lige;
Ret Bryllups-Klædning skjænk du mig,
At jeg maa sidde værdelig
Tilbords blandt dine Venner!
4 Driv bort alt Had og Bitterhed,
O Jesu, af mit Hjerte,
Og lad al Synd og Ondskab leed
Mig dybt i Sjælen smerte;
Du Paaskelam, som med dit Blod
Min Sjæls Fordærver stod imod,
Hjælp, jeg dig ret kan nyde!
5 Jeg ussel, syg og saaret er,
Din Haand lad mig helbrede,
Oplys de Øine, som ei ser,
Min Mund til Lov berede!
Jeg er fordømt, miskunde dig,
Jeg er fortabt, opleed du mig,
Hjælp mig af al min Vaade!
6 Min Brudgom sød, kom ind til mig,
Og bo udi mit Hjerte,
Lad mig i Troen favne dig,
Det lindre kan min Smerte;
Ak, lad din søde Kjærlighed
Saa føles, at jeg ikke veed
Af anden Sag at sige!
7 Du Livsens Brød, o Jesu Krist,
Kom, giv mig dig at smage,
Kom blodig Kilde, som forvist
Al Vanmagt kan borttage!
Jeg er i dig og du i mig
Immanuel, evindelig
Skal vi tilsammen blive!
Du Livsens Brød, Immanuel
Stat op med Fryd og tag imod
Author: J. F. Mayer; Birgitte Kaas Appears in 4 hymnals Topics: By Eucharist Lyrics: 1 Stat op med Fryd og tag imod
Det Livsens Brød, dig bydes,
Og Livsens Drik, din Jesu Blod,
Som for din Synd udgydes!
Det af din Frelsers Haand du faar,
Som flød udaf hans dybe Saar:
Drik Sjæl, at Tørsten stilles!
2 Dog kast først bort din Syndeham,
Beed Gud, han vil tilstede,
At du maa kaste paa din Skam
Retfærdighedens Klæde.
Den Helligaand kald ivrig paa,
At han dig helliggjøre maa,
Og værdelig berede.
3 Saa skal Guds Lam, din Jesus Krist,
Som for dig er hengivet,
Din rette Brudgom blive vist,
Og holde dig ved Livet,
Og du, mit Hjerte, være skal
Det Herrens Hus, den Himmelsal,
Hvor han vil Bryllup holde.
4 Nu Herre, mine Suk veed du,
Til dig jeg mig henvender,
O beed din Fader, at han nu
Den Helligaand mig sender,
At ei min Tro aflade maa,
Og jeg ei Dommen her skal faa,
Om jeg uværdig kommer.
5 I Engle, kommer og mig hen
Til Herrens Bord ledsager!
Trods Synden, Døden, Djævelen
Og alle Verdens Plager–
Min Jesus kommer straks til mig,
Af Hjerte, vær beredt, og siig:
Her er jeg, Jesu kjære!
Stat op med Fryd og tag imod
Vi komme, Herre Jesu Krist
Author: Ukj.; Landstad Appears in 3 hymnals Topics: By Eucharist Lyrics: 1 Vi komme, Herre Jesu Krist,
Fordi du os har buden,
Thi ingen Synder, det er vist,
Kan være dig foruden;
Om denne dyre Nadverds Skat,
Din Kjærlighed til Minde sat,
Vi stikke os til Sæde.
2 O Jesu, gjør os selv bered,
Lad vorde os til Baade!
Ifør os din Retfærdighed
Ved din Aands Kraft og Naade!
Giv, vi som værdig Gjester maa
Forenes saa med dig, vi faa
Deel i din Død til Livet!
3 Bliv du i os, at vi i dig
Maa indtil Enden blive,
Lad Synd og Død og Satans Svig
Os ikke fra dig rive!
Lad os ved dette Maaltids Mad
I Aanden blive mæt og glad,
Og eie alt Guds Rige!

O Jesu, for din Alterfod
Hymnal: Kirkesalmebog #58 (1893) Topics: By Eucharist Lyrics: 1 O Jesu, for din Alterfod
Vi komme her at knæle,
Og søge der en Helsebod
For vore syge Sjæle.
Vi komme paa dit Guddoms-Ord
Som Gjæster til dit Bryllups-Bord,
At mættes af din Manna,
Giv os en salig Smag derpaa,
At vi til Pris dig synge maa
Et frydfuldt Hosianna.
2 En større Skat en ønskes kan
Af alt det, man kan have,
End at vor egen Frelsermand
Os giver til en Gave.
Han siger saa, den Himmel-Ven:
Det er mit Legen, tager hen,
Mit Blod jeg vil forære!
Vi faa ham vist saa som han er,
Vi faa ham paa vor Tros Begjær,
Hvad kan der større være!
3 Og om jeg ikke kan forstaa
Guds Vei og skjulte Maade,
Jeg tviler intet dog derpaa,
Men lader Herren raade.
En sattig Gjæst har og et Rum
I Herrens Hus og Helligdom,
Min Jesus mig der møder;
Om jeg ei lige veed hans Vei,
Han dog mig, arme Synder, ei
Bort fra sit Bord udstøder.
4 O kristne Folk, saa kommer nu
Og hjælper os at sjunge;
Vi komme Jesu Død ihu,
Og vidne med vor Tunge:
Tak, tak, o søde Jesu Krist!
Tak for alt godt, os er bevist,
Tak for din Død, din Pine,
Tak for du var saa tryg en Ven,
At du dig selv har givet hen,
Kjøbt os at være dine!
5 Pris være dig for hver en Gang,
Du mætted vore Sjæle,
Pris være dig, som hjalp af Trang,
Naar Synd os vilde kvæle!
Gud Fader selv af Himmerig
Til evig Tid velsigner dig,
Som bar dn tunge Byrde,
Du lydig hen til Døden gaar,
Og løste de fortabte Faar
Fra den, os vilde myrde.
6 Dit Minde skal, o Jesu, staa
Uglemt i Sind og Tanke,
Velsignet i hver lønlig Vraa,
Hvor fromme Hjerter banke;
Og hvor der brydes helligt Brød,
Der skal forkyndes Herrens Død
Blandt unge Folk og gamle,
Indtil du synlig kommer frem
I Skyen, os at hente hjem,
Og i dit Rige samle.

Dyre Bord, som Jesus dækker
Johann Rist
1607 - 1667 Person Name: J. Rist Topics: By Eucharist Translator of "Du Livsens Brød, Immanuel" in M. B. Landstads Kirkesalmebog og "Nokre Salmar" ved Professor Dr. E. Blix, samt følgende tillæg Rist, Johann, son of Kaspar Rist, pastor at Ottensen, near Hamburg, was born at Ottensen, March 8, 1607, and from his birth was dedicated to the ministry. After passing through the Johanneum at Hamburg and the Gymnasium Illustre at Bremen, he matriculated, in his 21st year, at the University of Rinteln, and there, under Josua Stegmann (q. v.), he received an impulse to hymn-writing. On leaving Rinteln he acted as tutor to the sons of a Hamburg merchant, accompanying them to the University of Rostock, where he himself studied Hebrew, Mathematics and also Medicine.
During his residence at Rostock the terrors, of the Thirty Years War almost emptied the University, and Rist himself also lay there for weeks ill of the pestilence. After his recovery he seems to have spent some time at Hamburg, and then, about Michaelmas, 1633, became tutor in the house of the lawyer (Landschreiber) Heinrich Sager, at Heide, in Holstein. There he betrothed himself to Elizabeth, sister of the Judge Franz Stapfel, whose influence seems to have had a good deal to do with Rist's appointment as pastor at Wedel. In the spring of 1635 he married and settled at Wedel (on the Elbe, a few miles below Hamburg), where, spite of various offers of preferment, he remained till his death, on Aug. 31, 1667. (Johann Rist und seine Zeit, by Dr. T. Hansen, Halle, 1872; K. Goedeke's Grundriss, vol. iii., 1887, p. 79; Koch, iii., 212; Bode, p. 135, &c. The statements of the various authorities regarding the period 1624-1635 vary greatly and irreconcilably.)
During the Thirty Years War Rist had much to endure from famine, plundering, and pestilence. Otherwise he led a patriarchal and happy life at Wedel, close to the congenial society of Hamburg, and as years went on more and more esteemed and honoured by his contemporaries. The Emperor Ferdinand III. crowned him as a poet in 1644, and in 1653 raised him to the nobility, while nearer home Duke Christian of Mecklenburg appointed him Kirchenrath and Consistorialrath. Among other literary honours he was received in 1645 as a member of the Pegnitz Order, and in 1647 as a member of the Fruitbearing Society, the great German literary union of the 17th century; while in 1660 he himself became the founder and head of the Elbe Swan Order, which however did not survive his death.
Rist was an earnest pastor and a true patriot. He of course took the side, and that with all his might, of the Protestants, but he longed as few did for the union of the scattered elements of the body politic in Germany. He was a voluminous and many-sided writer (see the full bibliographies in Hansen and Goedeke as above). His secular works are of great interest to the student of the history of the times, and his occasional poems on marriages, &c, to the genealogist and local historian. Perhaps the most interesting to the general reader are the Friede wünschende Teutschland, 1647, and the Friedejauchzende Teutschland, 1653, two plays in which there are vivid pictures of the times, especially of the condition of the lower classes during the Thirty Years War. These plays, with selections from his other secular poems and from his hymns, are included in his Dichtungen, Leipzig, 1885, edited by Goedeke and E. Goetze. Hansen gives analyses of the secular works, with a few extracts from them; and in his second part gives a full selection from the hymns, often however greatly abridged.
As a hymn-writer Rist takes high rank. He wrote some 680 hymns, intended to cover the whole ground of Theology, and to be used by all ranks and classes, and on all the occasions of life. Naturally enough they are not of equal merit, and many are poor and bombastic. Rist meant them rather for private use than for public worship, and during his lifetime they were never used in the church at Wedel. But they were eagerly caught up, set to melodies by the best musicians of the day, and speedily passed into congregational use all over Germany, while even the Roman Catholics read them with delight. Over 200 may be said to have been in common use in Germany, and a large number still hold their place. Unfortunately many are very long. But speaking of Rist's better productions, we may say that their noble and classical style, their objective Christian faith, their scriptualness, their power to console, to encourage, and to strengthen in trust upon God's Fatherly love, and their fervent love to the Saviour (especially seen in the best of his hymns for Advent, and for the Holy Communion), sufficiently justify the esteem in which they were, and are, held in Germany. The best known of Rist's hymns appeared in the following collections:—
(1) Himlischs Lieder. This contains 50 hymns. The Erste Zehen is dated Lüneburg, 1641, the 2-6 Zehen are dated 1642 [Royal Library, Berlin]. In the later editions Rist made various alterations, and also expanded the titles of the hymns, these changes being almost all for the worse. (2) Neüer himlischer Lieder sonderbahres Buch, Lüneburg, 1651 [Wernigerode Library]. 50 hymns. (3) Sabbahtische Seelenlust, Lüneburg, 1651 [British Museum and Göttingen]. With 58 hymns on the Gospels for Sundays, &c. (4) Frommer und gottseliger Christen alltägliche Haussmusik, Lüneburg, 1654 [Brit. Mus. and Göttingen], with 70 hymns. (5) Neüe musikalische Fest-Andachten, Lüneburg, 1655 [Wernigerode]. With 52 hymns on the Sunday Gospels. (6) Neüe musikalische Katechismus Andachten, Lüneburg, 1656 [British Museum and Wernigerode]. With 50 hymns.

Person Name: Ukj. Topics: By Eucharist Translator of "O Guds Lam uskyldig" in M. B. Landstads Kirkesalmebog og "Nokre Salmar" ved Professor Dr. E. Blix, samt følgende tillæg In some hymnals, the editors noted that a hymn's author is unknown to them, and so this artificial "person" entry is used to reflect that fact. Obviously, the hymns attributed to "Author Unknown" "Unknown" or "Anonymous" could have been written by many people over a span of many centuries.
