O Bride of Christ, rejoice!
Author: Anon. Meter: 6.6.7.7.7.7 Appears in 21 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O Bride of Christ, rejoice!
Exultant raise thy voice
To hail the day of glory,
Foretold in sacred story.
Hosanna, praise and glory,
Our King, we bow before Thee.
2 Let shouts of gladness rise
Triumphant to the skies.
Here comes the King most glorious
To reign o’er all victorious :
Hosanna, praise and glory,
Our King, we bow before Thee.
3 He wears no kingly crown,
Yet as a king He’s known;
Though not arrayed in splendor:
He still makes death surrender:
Hosanna, praise and glory,
Our King, we bow before Thee.
4 The weak and timid find
Him gentle, good and kind;
To them He gives a treasure
Of bliss beyond all measure:
Hosanna, praise and glory,
Our King, we bow before Thee.
5 Thy heart now open wide,
Bid Christ with thee abide;
He graciously will hear thee,
And be forever near thee:
Hosanna, praise and glory,
Our King, we bow before Thee.
6 Then go thy Lord to meet;
Strew palm-leaves at His feet;
Thy garments spread before Him,
And honor and adore Him:
Hosanna, praise and glory,
Our King, we bow before Thee.
7 E’en babes with one accord
With thee shall praise the Lord,
And every Gentile nation
Respond with exultation:
Hosanna, praise and glory,
Our King, we bow before Thee.

Auf meinen lieben Gott
Hymnal: Antwort Finden in alten und neuen Liedern, in Worten zum Nachdenken und Beten #345 (2014) Lyrics: 1 Auf meinen lieben Gott
trau ich in Angst und Not;
der kann mich allzeit retten
aus Trübsal, Angst und Nöten;
mein Unglück kann er wenden,
steht alls in seinen Händen.
2 Ob mich mein Sünd anficht,
will ich verzagen nicht;
auf Christum will ich bauen
und ihm allein vertrauen;
ihm tu ich mich ergeben
im Tod und auch im Leben.
3 Ob mich der Tod nimmt hin,
ist Sterben mein Gewinn,
und Christus ist mein Leben;
dem tu ich mich ergeben;
ich sterb heut oder morgen,
mein Seel wird er versorgen.
4 O mein Herr Jesu Christ,
der du geduldig bist
für mich am Kreuz gestorben:
hast mir das Heil erworben,
auch uns allen zugleiche
das ewig Himmelreiche:
5 Amen zu aller Stund
sprech ich aus Herzensgrund;
du wollest selbst uns leiten,
Herr Christ, zu allen Zeiten,
auf daß wir deinen Namen
ewiglich preisen. Amen. Topics: Glaube - Liebe - Hoffnung Rechtfertigung und Zuversicht Languages: German Tune Title: [Auf meinen lieben Gott]

Auf meinen lieben Gott
Johann Hermann Schein
1586 - 1630 Adapter of "[Auf meinen lieben Gott]" in Antwort Finden in alten und neuen Liedern, in Worten zum Nachdenken und Beten Schein, Johann Hermann, son of Hieronymus Schein, pastor at Griinhain, near Annaberg, in Saxony, was born at Grünhain, Jan. 20,1586. He matriculated at the University of Leipzig in 1607, and studied there for four years. Thereafter he acted for some time as a private tutor, including two years with a family at Weissenfels. On May 21, 1615, he was appointed Capellmeister, at the court of Duke Johann Ernst, of Sachse-Weimar; and in 1616 he became cantor of I3t. Thomas's Church, and music director at Leipzig, in succession to Seth Calvisius (d. Nov. 24, 1615). This post he held till his death, at Leipzig, Nov. 19, 1630.
Schein was one of the most distinguished musicians of his time, both as an original composer, and as a harmoniser of the works of others. As a hymnwriter he was not so prolific, or so noteworthy. Most of his hymns were written on the deaths of his children or friends, e.g. on seven of his children, and on his first wife. They appeared mostly in broadsheet form, and were included, along with his original melodies, in his Cantional oder Gesang-Buch Augspurgischer Confession, Leipzig, 1627; 2nd ed., 1645. [Both in Wernigerode Library.]
Those of Schein's hymns which have passed into English are:—
i. Machs mit mir, Gott, nach deiner Güt. For the Dying. First published, as a broadsheet, at Leipzig, 1628, as a Trost-Liedlein á 5 (i.e. for 5 voices), &c. [Berlin Library.] The words, the melody, and the five-part setting, are all by Schein. It was written for, and first used at, the funeral, on Dec. 15, 1628, of Margarita, wife of Caspar Werner, a builder and town councillor at Leipzig, and a churchwarden of St. Thomas's. It is in 6 stanzas of 6 lines; the initial letters of 11. 1, 3, in st. i.-iv., forming the name Margarita; and the W of st. v. 1. 1 standing for Werner. In Schein's Cantional, 1645, No. 303 (marked as Trost-Liedlein, Joh. Herm. Scheins, á 5), and later hymn-books, as e.g. the Unverfäschter Liedersegen, 1851, No. 830, st. vi. was omitted. It is Schein's finest production, and one of the best German hymns for the sick and dying. Translated as:—
Deal with me, God, in mercy now. This is a good and full translation by Miss Winkworth, in her Chorale Book for England, 1863, No. 191, set to Schein's melody of 1628.
ii. Mein Gott und Herr, ach sei nicht fern. For the Dying. First published, with his name, in his Cantional, 1627, No. 262, in 9 stanzas of 6 lines. The initial letters of the stanzas give the name Margarita, probably one of the daughters who predeceased him. It is included, in 5 st., in the 164-8, and later eds., of Crüger's Praxis. The translation in common use is:—
My Lord and God, go not away. A good tr. of st. i., ii., iv., v., vii., by A. T. Russell, as No. 254, in his Psalms & Hymns, 1851. [Rev. James Mearns, M.A.]

Hedborn became one of the Aurora League's founders and helped in Phosphoros and Poetic calendar, where he published a number of poems, some of which Lullaby (Ute summer breeze blowing) is probably his best known. 1810-14 Hedborn suffered from depression, which at times made him unable to attend to his duties. During this time he developed into religious poet and published two collections of Psalms (1812-13). After a long silence gathered Hedborn his poems in memory and poetry, beginning of an autobiography, which is mostly about his childhood.
Samuel Johan Hedborns collected writings were published with biography of Per Daniel Amadeus Atterbom in two bands in 1853.
He was vicar in his mother's home parish Askeryd in Linköping diocese from 1820 until his death, where Hedborn also is buried at Askeryds church during a cast iron cross. Hedborn is represented in the 1986 hymnal with original texts of five works (No 120, 132, 329, 347 and 391) and processing/translation of a hymn (No. 104).
He is buried in Askeryds cemetery east of Aneby.
