Lord, in Thy kingdom there shall be

Hymnal: ELH91895 #a199 (1895) Lyrics: 1 Lord, in Thy kingdom there shall be No aliens from each other, But even as he loves himself Each saint shall love his brother. 2 When in Thy courts below we meet To mourn our sinful living, And with united hearts repeat Confession, creed, thanksgiving: 3 Make us to hear in each sweet word Thy Holy Spirit calling To oneness with Thy Church and Thee, That heavenly bond forestalling. 4 One Baptism and one faith have we, One Spirit sent to win us, One Lord, one Father, and one God, Above, and through, and in us. 5 Never by schism or by sin, May we that union sever, Till all, to perfect stature grown, Are one with Thee for ever.

Blessed Jesus, at Thy word

Hymnal: ELH91895 #a2 (1895) Lyrics: 1 Blessed Jesus, at Thy Word We are gathered all to hear Thee' Let our hearts and souls be stirred Now to seek and love and fear Thee; By Thy teachings sweet and holy Drawn from earth to love Thee solely. 2 All our knowledge, sense, and sight Lie in deepest darkness shrouded, Till Thy Spirit breaks our night With the beams of truth unclouded; Thou alone to God canst win us, Thou must work all good within us. 3 Glorious Lord, Thyself impart! Light of Light from God proceeding, Open Thou our ears and heart, Help us by Thy Spirit's pleading, Hear the cry Thy people raises, Hear and bless our prayers and praises!

Hark, the glad sound, the Savior comes

Hymnal: ELH91895 #a20 (1895) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Hark, the glad sound, the Savior comes, The Savior promised long! Let every heart prepare a throne, And every voice a song. 2 He comes the pris'ners to release, In Satan's bondage held: The gates of brass before Him burst, The iron fetters yield. 3 He comes, the thickest films of vice To clear the mental ray; And on the eyes, oppressed with night, To pour celestial day. 4 He comes, the broken heart to bind, The bleeding soul to cure, And with the treasures of His grace T'enrich the humble poor. 5 Our glad hosannas, Prince of Peace! Thy welcome shall proclaim, And heaven's eternal arches ring With Thy beloved name. Topics: The Church Year Advent Languages: English

The saints of earth and those above

Hymnal: ELH91895 #a200 (1895) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 The saints on earth and those above But one communion make; Joined to their Lord, in bonds of love, All of His grace partake. 2 One family, we dwell in Him, One church above, beneath; Though now divided by the stream, The narrow stream of death. 3 One army of the living God, To His command we bow; Part of the host have crossed the flood And part are crossing now. 4 Lo! thousands to their endless home Are swiftly borne away; And we are to the margin come, And soon must launch as they. 5 Lord Jesus! be our constant guide! Then, when the word is given, Bid death’s flood its waves divide, And land us safe in heaven. Topics: The Catechism The Church Languages: English

Great is the Lord our God

Hymnal: ELH91895 #a201 (1895) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Great is the Lord our God, And let His praise be great; He makes the church His abode, His most delightful seat. 2 In Zion God is known, A refuge in distress: How bright has His salvation shone Through all her palaces! 3 When kings against her joined, And saw the Lord was there, In wild confusion of the mind, They fled with hasty fear. 4 Oft have our fathers told, Our eyes have often seen, How well our God secures the fold Where His own sheep have been. 5 In ev'ry new distress We’ll to His house repair; We’ll think upon His wondrous grace, And seek deliv'rance there.

Let Children hear the mighty deeds

Hymnal: ELH91895 #a202 (1895) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Let children hear the mighty deeds Which God performed of old, Which in our younger years we saw, And which our fathers told. 2 He bids us make His glories known, His works of power and grace; And will convey His wonders down, Through every rising race. 3 Our lips shall tell them to our sons, And they again to theirs That generations yet unborn May teach them to their heirs. 4 Thus learn that in our God alone Their hope securely stands, That they may ne'er forget His works, But practice His commands.

O God, may we e'er pure retain

Hymnal: ELH91895 #a203 (1895) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 O God, may we e'er pure retain The catechismal doctrine pain, As Luther taught the heavenly truth In simple style to tender youth. 2 That we Thy holy law may know And mourn our sin and all its woe, And yet believe in Father, Son, And Holy Spirit, Three in one. 3 That we may on our Father call, Who can and will give help to all, And, washed with water by the Word, Walk ever worthy of our Lord. 4 That if one fall, he rise again, And hasten pardon to obtain, Receive the sacrament in faith, Amen. Lord, grant a happy death. Topics: The Catechism Catechetical Instruction Languages: English

Almighty Lord of earth and heaven

Hymnal: ELH91895 #a206 (1895) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Almighty Lord of earth and heaven, The Ten Commandments Thou hast given Reveal how wicked I have been, And make me dread the curse of sin. 2 I've loved the creature more than Thee, And sinned against Thy majesty; My love and trust to Thee denied, On self and man my soul relied. 3 My lips have oft, from heart profane, Employed Thy holy name in vain; Forgetful of Thy cov'nant grace, How seldom have I sought Thy face! 4 In sinful cares or work, or play, I've often spent Thy holy day, Despised Thy Word, strayed from Thy fold, And left Thy benefits untold. 5 My parents oft I've disobeyed, Their good with evil deeds repaid: I've been unchaste in word and deed, And careless of my neighbor's need.
