Evangelical Lutheran Hymnary ‎#19

19. Now May He Who from the Dead

1 Now may He who from the dead
Brought the Shepherd of the sheep,
Jesus Christ, our King and Head,
All our souls in safety keep!

2 May He teach us to fulfill
What is pleasing in His sight;
Perfect us all in His will,
And preserve us day and night!

3 To that dear Redeemer's praise,
Who the cov'nant sealed with blood,
Let our hearts and voices raise
Loud thanksgivings to our God.
