Not always on the mount may we

Author: Frederick L. Hosmer, 1840 - 1929 Hymnal: Service Book and Hymnal of the Lutheran Church in America #535a (1958) Lyrics: 1 Not always on the mount may we Rapt in the heavenly vision be; The shores of thought and feeling know The Spirit’s tidal ebb and flow. 2 'Lord, it is good abiding here,' We cry, the heavenly presence near; The vision vanishes, our eyes Are lifted into vacant skies. 3 Yet hath one such exalted hour Upon the soul redeeming power, And its strength through after days We travel our appointed ways; 4 Till all the lowly vale grows bright, Transfigured in remembered light, And in untiring souls we bear The freshness of the upper air. 5 The mount for vision: but below The paths of daily duty go, And nobler life therein shall own The pattern on the mountain shown.

How Blessed Is This Place, O Lord

Author: Ernest Edwin Ryden Hymnal: The Hymnal and Order of Service #581 (1926) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 How blessed is this place, O Lord, Where Thou art worshiped and adored; Our faith would here an altar raise Unto Thy glory, God of praise! 2 Here let Thy sacred fire of old Descend to kindle spirits cold; And may our prayers, when here we bend, Like incense sweet to Thee ascend. 3 Here let the weary one find rest, The aching heart a comfort blest, The guilty soul a sure retreat, The sinner pardon at Thy feet. 4 Here gather us around Thy board To keep the feast with Thee, dear Lord, And when in faith our souls draw near, May we discern Thy presence here. 5 And when these earthly Sabbaths cease, O may our souls depart in peace, Around Thy glorious throne to meet, And find it, Lord, a mercy-seat!

We praise, dear Lord, Thy Name divine, For Thou hast triumphed o'er the tomb; No more we need to dread its gloom. 2 That tree, on which Thou offer'dst up Thy life, now bears the fruit of hope: Thy precious blood for us is shed, Now we may feed on heavenly bread. 3 We thank Thee, Jesus, that Thy hand Has freed us from sin's galling band; No more its thralldom we need fear; The year of liberty is here. 4 O Jesus Christ, God's Son elect, Our Paschal Lamb without defect, To us Thou givest strength indeed, In all our conflicts, all our need. 5 Through Thee we always shall prevail, However hell may us assail, Thou setst us free, Thy name to praise, And leadst us into heavenly ways. 6 Oh, grant, that as Thou didst arise, I too, with joy, may heavenward rise, First from my sin, to love Thy way, Then from the grave, at the last day. 7 All praise to Thee who from death's might, From carnal lust and sin's dark plight Redeemest me, and show'st how I May reach eternal life on high.

Wohl Dem, Der In Gottesfurcht Steht

Author: Martin Luther Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #13591 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Wohl dem, der in Gottesfurcht steht, Und der auf seinem Wege geht; Dein eigen Hand dich nähren soll, So lebst du recht und geht dir wohl. 2 Dein Weib wird in dei’m Hause sein Wie ein’ Reben voll Trauben fein, Und dein’ Kinder um deinen Tisch Wie Ölpflanzen, gesund und frisch. 3 Sich so reich Segen hängt dem an, Wo in Gottes Furcht lebt ein Mann, Von ihm lässt der alt’ Fluch und Zorn, Den Menschenkindern angebor’n. 4 Aus Zion wird Gott segnen dich, Dass du wirst schauen stetiglich Das Glück der Stadt Jerusalem, Für Gott in Gnaden angenehm. 5 Fristen wird er das Leben dein Und mit Güte stets bei dir sein, Dass du sehen wirst Kindes Kind Und dass Israel Friede findt.

We are the people of Your choice, And while we in this grace rejoice, Our prayer is this, our constant care, That others too our bliss may share. 4.

Great God, How Oft Did Israel Prove

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #1752 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1. Great God, how oft did Israel prove By turns Thine anger and Thy love! There in a glass our hearts may see How fickle and how false they be. 2. How soon the faithless Jews forgot The dreadful wonders God had wrought! Then they provoke Him to His face Nor fear His power, nor trust His grace. 3. The Lord consumed their years in pain, And made their travels long and vain; A tedious march through unknown ways Wore out their strength, and spent their days. 4. Oft when they saw their brethren slain They mourned, and sought the Lord again; Called Him the Rock of their abode, Their high Redeemer, and their God. 5. Their prayers and vows before Him rise As flattering words or solemn lies, While their rebellious tempers prove False to His covenant and His love. 6. Yet did His sovereign grace forgive The men who not deserved to live; His anger oft away He turned, Or else with gentle flame it burned. 7. He saw their flesh was weak and frail, He saw temptations still prevail; The God of Abraham loved them still, And led them to His holy hill. Languages: English Tune Title: ALLMÄCHTIGER GOTT
