Most Wondrous Is Of All On Earth

Author: N. F. S. Grundtvig Meter: 8.7.8.7 Appears in 5 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Most wondrous is of all on earth The kingdom Jesus founded. Its glory, peace and precious worth No tongue has fully sounded. 2 Invisible as mind and soul, And yet of light the fountain, Its brightness shines from pole to pole Like lights from lofty mountain. 3 Its secret is the Word of God, Which does what it proposes, Which lowers mountains high and broad And clothes the waste with roses. 4 Let foes against the kingdom rage With hatred and derision, God crowns its reign from age to age, And brings it to fruition. 5 Its glory rises like the morn When waves at sunrise glitter, Or like in May the verdant corn As birds above it twitter. 6 It is the glory of the King Who bore affliction solely That He the crown of life might bring To sinners poor and lowly. 7 And when His advent comes to pass The Christian's strife is ended, What here we see as in a glass Shall then be comprehended. 8 Then shall the kingdom bright appear With glory true an vernal And bring His saved a golden year Of peace and joy eternal.

Arise All Things That God Has Made

Author: H. A. Brorson Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 2 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Arise, all things that God has made And praise His name and glory; Each leaflet and each grassy blade Do tell a wondrous story. 2 Though kings of earth together show Their utmost strength and power, They could not make a leaflet grow On herb, or weed, or flower. 3 What shall I say when'er I walk Where flowers are abounding, And birds in song together talk, As thousand harps were sounding. 4 What would I say, if I could spy The secrets of the ocean, And see the myriad life go by In endless, streaming motion. 5 What shall I say when I behold The stars in countless numbers, And feel their smiling charm untold While nature sweetly slumbers. 6 What shall I say when I ascend To Him who made creation, And see the angel host attend His throne in glad elation. 7 What shall I say? Weak are my words And humble my opinion! How great Thy wisdom, Lord of lords, Thy might and Thy dominion! 8 Arise, ye nations of the earth, And lift your voice to heaven, Praise God in songs of joy and mirth, Who all these things hath given.

Jeg veed at evigt Himmerig

Author: Ukj.; H. C. Sthen Appears in 4 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Jeg veed et evigt Himmerig, Som ei med Guld det røde Er tjeldet ud saa prydelig, Men med Guds Ord bet søde. 2 Der udi bor min Jesus Krist, Som er Guds Søn den fromme, Min Festermand, mig venter vist, Og beder til sig komme. 3 En Pillegrim er jeg forsand, Men Reise maa jeg ende, Herfra og til mit Fædreland, Mig kan ei bedre hænde. 4 Jeg fattig hid til Verden kom, Saa ringe var min Stamme, Gaar herfra ud med Haanden tom, Mig følger Død hin gramme. 5 Dog er jeg vis, at denne Krop I Døden ei skal blive, Men skal ved Guds Søns Kraft staa op, Han vil mig Glæden give. 6 Da fanger jeg, det er min Tro, Som her leed megen Plage, For Sorg og Strid Guds Fred og Ro I alle mine Dage. 7 Jeg skilles fra al Usseldom Paa denne Jordens Tue, Min Herre Jesus raaber: Kom! 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! Amen.
