To God Be Honor, Laud And Praise

Author: H. Brueckner Hymnal: American Lutheran Hymnal #146 (1930) Meter: 8.8.7.8.8.7.4.8.4.8 Hymnal Title: American Lutheran Hymnal Lyrics: 1 To God be honor, laud and praise For all His wondrous works and ways, For ev'ry blessing granted. Let joyful hallelujahs rise To Him who rules the starry skies And tuneful psalms be chanted. Loudly sing ye, Mortals lowly, God is holy! Righteous call Him, And as Lord of hosts extol Him! 2 Sing hallelujahs, too, with might And praise the Lamb of God aright, In whom the Father chose us; Who bought us with His holy blood, Baptized us in this sacred flood And as His loved ones knows us. Gracious, precious Is this union and communion, Blest forever; Naught can wrest us from our Savior. 3 With hallelujahs all our days We also sing the Spirit's praise, Who newborn creatures makes us; Who, decking us in faith's array, Appoints for us a marriage day And to the Bridegroom takes us. Glory shout ye! Here are treasures, here are pleasures, Here is manna, Here is joyful, sweet hosanna! 4 Thrice hallelujah let us sing And to our God our tributes bring, Whose name is great and glorious. In one accord with heaven's throng Let us repeat our joyful song To Him Who rules victorious. Say then Amen, We are lowly, God is holy! Praise be given To our triune God in heaven!

Tow'rd Thee longing Doth possess me, do Thou bless me, Sun of gladness, Lest my soul repine in sadness. 3 If Thou but look on me in love, God draweth near me from above With joy's o'erflowing measure; Lord Jesus Christ, my highest Good, Thy Word and Spirit, flesh and blood, My inmost heart doth treasure. With Thy bounty Draw Thou near me, warm and cheer me, Firmly hold me; Keep me Thine, in love enfold me. 4 Here will I rest, and e'er hold fast: My Bridegroom is the First and Last, The source and goal forever; Here I may calmly die, for Thou Wilt take me where Thou dwellest now, Naught Thee and me shall sever. Amen! Amen! Come, we pray Thee, nor delay Thee; We with yearning Look, O Lord, for Thy returning. Topics: The Means of Grace The Redeemer Languages: English Tune Title: NICOLAI

All Hail To Thee, O Blessed Morn

Author: E. W. Olson; Johan Olaf Wallin Hymnal: American Lutheran Hymnal #361 (1930) Meter: Irregular Hymnal Title: American Lutheran Hymnal First Line: All hail to thee, O blessed morn! Lyrics: 1 All hail to thee, O blessed morn! To tidings by the prophets borne Hast Thou fulfillment given. O sacred and immortal day, When unto earth, in glorious ray, Descends the grace of heaven, Singing, Ringing, Sounds are blending, Praises sending Unto heaven For the Savior to us given. 2 ’Tis God’s own Image and, withal, The Son of Man, that mortals all May find in Him a brother. He comes, with peace and love to bide On earth, the erring race to guide And help as could no other; Rather Gather, Closer, fonder, Sheep that wander, Feed and fold them, Than let evil powers hold them. 3 He tears, like other men, will shed, Our sorrows share and be our aid Through His eternal power; The Lord’s good will unto us show, And mingle in our cup of woe The drops of mercy’s shower; Dying, Buying, Through His passion Our salvation, And to mortals Opening the heav'nly portals. 4 He comes, for our redemption sent, And by His glory heav'n is rent, To close upon us never; Our blessed Shepherd He would be, Whom we may follow faithfully And be with Him forever; Higher, Nigher Glory winging, Praises singing To the Father And His Son, our Lord and Brother.

To us ever, Light of heaven, Strength be given, We implore Thee, As in prayer we come before Thee. 2 Without Thy help we go astray, O lead us in the narrow way, With wisest counsel guide us; Vouch-safe to us Thy grace that we May ever faithful prove to Thee Tho' direst woes betide us. Heal thou gently Hearts now broken, Give some token Thou art near us, With Thy precious gifts to cheer us. 3 O mighty Rock, O Source of life, Thy blessed Word 'mid doubt and strife Keep so within us burning That we in fervent love remain And thro' Thy teachings wisdom gain To calm the soul's deep yearning. All thy graces On us shower; By Thy power Christ confessing, Let us win His grace and blessing. 4 O let our days, while life shall last, In purest holiness be passed; Our minds so rule and strengthen That we may shun all sinful mirth, All hopes and joys that here have birth, And if our course Thou lengthen, Keep Thou pure now From offenses Heart and senses; Blessed Spirit, May we heaven thus inherit.

All we are and have, we owe you. 3 All praise to him who comes to save, who conquered death, and spurned the grave!
