Thou, whose almighty word

Author: John Marriott Meter: 6.4 Appears in 447 hymnals Topics: Fifth Sunday after Trinity Lyrics: 1 Thou, whose almighty word Chaos and darkness heard, And took their flight; Hear us, we humbly pray; And where the Gospel day Sheds not its glorious ray, Let there be light! 2 Thou, who didst come to bring, On Thy redeeming wing, Healing and sight, Health to the sick in mind, Sight to the inly blind, O, now to all mankind Let there be light! 3 Spirit of truth and love, Life-giving, holy Dove, Speed forth Thy flight; Move on the waters' face, Bearing the lamp of grace, And in earth's darkest place Let there be light! 4 Holy and blessed Three, Glorious Trinity, Wisdom, Love, Might! Boundless as ocean's tide Rolling in fullest pride, Through the earth, far and wide, Let there be light! Used With Tune: FIAT LUX

Du tør slet ikke grue. 8 Jeg dig forløste med mit Blod, Og elskte dig af Hjerte, Vær du derfore kun ved godt Mod, Jeg døve vil din Smerte! 9 Har du mig kjær, min Hjertens Skat, Hvi vil du dig saa krænke? Thi paa din Synd, som er forladt, Jeg aldrig meer vil tænke. 10 Naar Verden al som Flyvesand Med Guld og Glæde viger, Da staar jeg hos din høire Haand, Den Ven, dig aldrig sviger. 11 Thi lader os i Evighed Gud takke allesammen For hans den store Miskundhed Ved Jesus Kristum!

Jesus Christ, my sure defense

Author: Anon. Meter: 7.8.7.8.7.7 Appears in 56 hymnals Topics: The Church Year Twenty-fifth Sunday after Trinity; The Church Year Twenty-fifth Sunday after Trinity Lyrics: 1 Jesus Christ, my sure defense And my Savior, ever liveth; Knowing this; my confidence Rests upon the hope it giveth, Though the night of death be fraught Still with many an anxious thought. 2 Jesus, my Redeemer, lives! I, too, unto life shall waken: He will have me where He is; Shall my courage then be shaken? Shall I fear? Or can the Head Rise and leave its members dead? 3 Nay, too closely am I bound Unto Him by hope for ever; Faith's strong hand the rock hath found, Grasped it, and will leave it never; Not the ban of death can part From its Lord the trusting heart. 4 I shall see God with these eyes, Shall behold my blessed Savior; I, the selfsame, shall arise, In my flesh see god forever; Then shall wholly disappear Frailties that oppress me here. 5 What now sickens, mourns, and sighs, Christ with Him in glory bringeth: Earthly is the seed and dies, Heavenly from the grave it springeth. Glorified we then shall rise To our mansion in the skies. 6 Savior, draw away our heart Now from pleasures base and hollow, Let us there with Thee have part, Here on earth Thy footsteps follow. Fix our hearts beyond the skies, Whither we ourselves would rise. Used With Tune: [Jesus Christ, my sure defense]

Hvo ene lader Herren raade

Author: G. Neumark; Fr. Rostgaard Appears in 5 hymnals Topics: Fifth Sunday after Trinity Sunday High Mass Lyrics: 1 Hvo ene lader Herren raade, Og setter fuldt til ham sin Lid, Den vil han fri af alskens Vaade, Og redde af al Nød og Strid, Hvo al sin Lid til Himlen slaar, Hans Hus paa sandig Grund ei staar. 2 Hvad hjælper os vor Sorg og Klage, Fordi vor Lykke er saa krank, Vi af os selv dog intet tage, Udrette intet med vor Ank, Vi fylde kun for Modgangs Skaal Med sligt unyttigt Klagemaal. 3 Staa, kristen Sjæl, kun lidet stille, Og vær fornøiet i din Gud, Alt som hans vise Naade-Vilje Og Forsyn deler al Ting ud; Den gode Gud, vor Skabermand Bedst skjønner, havd os fattes kan. 4 Han kjender det, vort Bedste fremmer, Han veed den rette Trøste-Tid, Naar han vor Troskab kun fornemmer, Og merker ingen Hykler-Id, Saa kommer han, før vi det se, Og vil da meget Godt os te. 5 Tænk ei i dine store Plager, At Herren haver dig forladt, Og sig af den alene tager, Som Lykken har i al Ting fat; Med Tiden meget vender sig, Den setter Maal for mig og dig. 6 Det er og Gud slet ingen Møie, Og koster bare ham et Ord, Den, som er fattig, at ophøie, En Rig at støde ned til Jord; Gud er den Undergjernings-Mand, Snart reise op, snart felde kan. 7 Syng, beed og lyd, hvad Herren siger, Vær i dig Kald vinskibelig, Og tro, ved Gud din Velferd stiger, Saa sker det ogsaa visselig; Thi hvo sin Lid paa Gud har sat, Han vorder ei af ham forladt.

Sun, and moon, and stars decay; Time shall soon this earth remove; Rise, my soul, and haste away To seats prepared above. 2 Rivers to the ocean run, Nor stay in all their course; Fire ascending seeks the sun; Both speed them to their source: So a soul that’s born of God Pants to view His glorious face; Upward tends to His abode, To rest in His embrace. 3 Cease, my soul, O cease to mourn! Press onward to the prize; Soon thy Savior will return, To take thee to the skies; There is everlasting peace, Rest, enduring rest in heaven, There will sorrow ever cease, And crowns of joy be given. Used With Tune: [Rise, my soul, and stretch thy wings]

Thi Jesus vil dig lære, Hvordan du from og vel bered Kan mod hans Tilkomst være, At Lys og Lampe brænde maa, Du med din Brudgom ind kan gaa Til evig Fryd og Ære. 2 Af Skriften har vi Trøst og Haab Taalmodelig at lide, Omstjønt blandt Trængsel, Suk og Raab Vi Tiden end skal slide: Den Tid er dog saa ganske kort, Som Fuglen flyver hastig bort, Saa skal vor Sorg henskride. 3 Taalmodigheds og Trøstens Gud Han give, at vi kunde Med et Sind holde stadig ud, Og længes alle Stunde, At vi vor Jesus kunde se I Skyen, da vor Verdens Ve Skal evig gaa til Grunde. 4 Gid vi og kan endrægtelig, De Gamle med de Unge, Den store Gud i Himmerig Med Hjerte, Mund og Tunge, Fordi han Hedninger indbød, At nyde Frugt af Jesu Død, Lov, Pris og Ære sjunge!
