Der staar en Mand og takker Gud

Appears in 3 hymnals Topics: Eleventh Sunday after Trinity Sunday High Mass Lyrics: 1 Der staar en Mand og takker Gud, At han er ei som andre, At han i alle Lovens Bud Kan ret og rigtig vandre, Han drister paa sin egen Dyd; Den Daarskab, Herre Jesu, bryd! At vi for dig i Bønne-Stund De skyldig' Pund Maa mindes ret af Hjertens Grund! 2 Men Tolderen, som knapt sin Fod Tør i Guds Temple sette, Han for sig selv langt borte stod, Gik med sig selv i Rette, Og brast med Sorg i sukke ud: O, vær mig Synder naadig, Gud! Hans Bod var sand, hans Længsel stor, Han Naaden tror, Og Gud til Hjerte gik hans Ord. 3 Thi Kristus siger, denne Mand, Som syntes saa uværdig, Hos Gud i Himlen Naade fandt, Og han gik hjem retfærdig. O Gud, lær os at bede saa, At vi og kan din Naade faa, Og saa gaa hjem med Synd forladt, Og Dag og Nat Velsigne dig, vort Hjertes Skat!

Prayer is the soul's sincere desire

Author: James Montgomery Appears in 856 hymnals Topics: Eleventh Sunday after Trinity Lyrics: 1 Prayer is the soul's sincere desire, Uttered or unexpressed, The motion of a hidden fire That trembles in the breast. 2 Prayer is the burden of a sigh, The falling of a tear; The upward glancing of an eye, When none but God is near. 3 Prayer is the simplest form of speech That infant lips can try: Prayer the sublimest strains that reach The Majesty on high. 4 Prayer is the Christians' vital breath, The Christians' native air; His watchword at the gate of death-- He enters heaven with prayer. 5 Prayer is the contrite sinner's voice Returning from his ways, While angels in their songs rejoice, And say, "Behold, he prays."

Dit Naadens Øre merke paa Den Bøn, jeg frem vil føre! Om du i Naade ei ser bort Fra al den Synd, som her er gjort, Hvo kan da frelst vel blive? 2 For dig kun Naaden gjælde kan Til Synden at forlade, Min Gjerning hjælper ei et Grand, Og bøder ei den Skade; For dig er ingen funden ren, Thi frygte sig maa hver og en, Og tage Trøst af Naaden. 3 Derfor til Gud jeg holder mig I mine Synders Vaade, Mit Hjerte saare trøster sig Paa Jesu søde Naade, Som er mig i hans ord tilsagt, Det staar evindelig ved Magt; Paa Naaden, Gud, jeg bier. 4 Og varer det fra Morgenstund Alt indtil Aftens Ende, Da skal mitHjerte ingenlund Mistrøstet bort sig vende. Saa gjør Guds Folk af rette Art, Som han med Tugt har tvunget hart, De bie paa Guds Time. 5 Og om vor Synd er stor og svar, End større er Guds Naade; Den Hjælp, som han i Hænde har, Er uden Maal og Maade. Trods al den Synd og Sorg, er til, Han Hyrden er, som frelse vil, Og fri sit Folk af Nøden.

What a Friend we have in Jesus

Author: Joseph Scriven Appears in 1,755 hymnals Topics: Eleventh Sunday after Trinity Lyrics: 1 What a Friend we have in Jesus, All our sins and griefs to bear!

We should never be discouraged: Take it to the Lord in prayer! Can we find a friend so faithful Who will all our sorrows share? Jesus knows our every weakness-- Take it to the Lord in prayer! 3 Are we weak and heavy laden, Cumbered with a load of care? Precious Savior, still our Refuge,-- Take it to the Lord in prayer! Do thy friends despise, forsake thee? Take it to the Lord in prayer! In His arms He'll take and shield you; Thou wilt find a solace there. Used With Tune: MANT (Autumn)

O kom dog hver, som Synd har gjort

Appears in 5 hymnals Topics: Eleventh Sunday after Trinity Sunday High Mass Lyrics: 1 O kom dog hver, som Synd har gjort, Og ei i synden inder Hvile, Til ham, der ingen viser bort, Som vil nedbøiet til ham ile. Hvorfor mon du omkomme vil, Da han dig byder Naade til? Vil du nu Synden længer tjene, Da han vil redde dig Urene? Slip Syndens Vei, til Jesum se, Thi han annammer Syndere. 2 Kom usel, bøiet, jammerlig, Kom kun og lad dig ei bortjage, Hvor haardt din skyld end ængster dig, Vil dog hans Naade dig modtage. Se, hvor hans Hjerte aabent staar, Og hvor han dig imøde gaar! Se, hvor han selv dig derom beder, Og efter dig med Smerte leder, Kom da, du arme Sjæl, og se, At han annammer Syndere. 3 Siig ei: min Synd er alt for svar, Jeg jo hans Naade og hans Gaver Saa lang en Tid foragtet har, Forgjæves han mig kaldet haver. Saafremt det nu dit Alvor er, Og fandt for synden Sorg du bær, Skal ingen Ting hans Hænder binde, Tro kun, saa skal du Naade finde! Han ganske vist skal Hjælp dig te, Thi han annammer Syndere. 4 Siig ei: endnu jeg vente tør, Jeg leve vil, som det mig lyster, Gud lukker straks ei Naadens Dør For mig, derved min Sjæl sig trøster. Nei, mens han kalder, da hør til, Kom smart, hvad end dig hefte vil! Hvo, som den Dag i Dag vil drømme, Han kan snart Naadens Tid forsømme, Dens Dør blir lukt evindelig; Kom! nu vil han annamme dig! 5 Ja drag os selv, o Jesu mild, Ret hen til dig, og til dit Rige, Med hellig, Naades-Hunger fyld Os alle Adams Børn tillige! Naar Sjælen fuld af Pine er, Viis os, dit Hjerte har os kjær, Naar os vor Nød ei lader Hvile, Lad os ei stille staa men ile, Til vi kan sige hver for sig: Min Jesus og annammer mig!
