Come, ye Faithful, raise the Strain

Author: John of Damascus; J. M. Neale Hymnal: Concordia #86 (1918) Topics: Church Festivals Passion and Easter Lyrics: 1 Come, ye faithful, raise the strain Of triumphant gladness, God has brought His Israel Into joy from sadness; Loosed from Pharaoh’s bitter yoke Jacob’s sons and daughters, Led them with unmoistened foot Thro' the Red Sea waters. 2 'Tis the spring of souls today, Christ hath burst His prison, And from three days' sleep in death As a sun hath risen; All the winter of our sins, Long and dark, is flying From His light, to whom we give Laud and praise undying. 3 Now the queen of seasons, bright With the day of splendor, With the royal feast of feasts, Comes its joy to render; Comes to glad Jerusalem, Who with true affection Welcomes, in unwearied strains Jesus' resurrection. 4 Neither might the gates of death Nor the tomb’s dark portal, Nor the watchers, nor the seal, Hold Thee as a mortal; But today amid Thine own Thou didst stand, bestowing This, Thy peace, which evermore Passeth human knowing.

See the Conqueror Mounts in Triumph

Author: Christopher Wordsworth Hymnal: Concordia #89 (1918) Topics: Church Festivals Passion and Easter Lyrics: 1 See the Conquerer mounts in triumph; See the King in royal state Riding on the clouds, His chariot, To His heav'nly palace gate! Hark! the choirs of angel-voices Joyful halleluias sing, And the portals high are lifted To receive their heav'nly King. 2 Who is this that comes in glory, With the trump of jubilee? Lord of battles, God of armies, He hath gained the victory; He who on the cross did suffer, He who from the grave arose, He has vanquished sin and Satan; He by death has crushed His foes. 3 While He raised His hands in blessing, He was parted from His friends, While their eager eyes behold Him, He upon the clouds ascends, He who walked with God and pleased Him, Preaching truth and doom to come, He, our Enoch, is translated, To His everlasting home. 4 Thou hast raised our human nature On the clouds to God's right hand; There we sit in heav'nly places, There with Thee in glory stand. Jesus reigns, adored by angels, Man with God is on the throne; Mighty Lord, in Thine ascension We by faith behold our own. Languages: English Tune Title: REX GLORIAE

Author: Edward Caswall; A. Rabanus Mauras, d. 856 Hymnal: Concordia #90 (1918) Topics: Church Festivals Pentecost Lyrics: 1 Come, Holy Ghost, Creator blest, Vouchsafe within our souls to rest; Come with Thy grace and heavenly aid, And fill the hearts which Thou hast made. 2 To Thee, the Comforter, we cry To Thee, the gift of God most high, The fount of life, the fire of love, The soul's anointing from above. 3 The seven-fold gifts of grace are Thine, O finger of the hand divine; True promise of the Father Thou, Who dost the tongue with speech endow. 4 Thy light to every thought impart, And shed Thy love in every heart; The weakness of our mortal state With deathless might invigorate. 5 Drive far away our wily foe, And Thine abiding peace bestow; If Thou be our preventing guide, No evil can our steps betide. 6 Make Thou to us the Father known; Teach us th'eternal Son to own, And Thee, whose name we ever bless, Of both the Spirit, to confess. 7 Praise we the Father and the Son, And Holy Spirit, Thee in One: And may the Son on us bestow The gifts that from the Spirit flow.

Holy Spirit, Faithful Guide

Author: Marcus M. Wells Hymnal: Concordia #93 (1918) Topics: Church Festivals Passion and Easter Lyrics: 1 Holy Spirit, faithful guide, Ever near the Christian’s side, Gently lead us by the hand, Pilgrims in a desert land; Weary souls fore’er rejoice, While they hear that sweetest voice Whisp'ring softly, “Wanderer come! Follow me, I’ll guide thee home." 2 Ever present, truest Friend, Ever near Thine aid to lend, Leave us not to doubt and fear, Groping on in darkness drear; When the storms are raging sore, Hearts grow faint, and hopes give o’er, Whisp'ring softly, “Wanderer come! Follow me, I’ll guide thee home.” 3 When our days of toil shall cease, Waiting still for sweet release, Nothing left but heaven and prayer, Wond'ring if our names were there; Wading deep the dismal flood, Pleading naught but Jesus’ blood; Whisp'ring softly, “Wanderer come! Follow me, I’ll guide thee home.” Languages: English Tune Title: GUIDE

A Mighty Fortress is our God

Author: Martin Luther Hymnal: Concordia #95 (1918) Topics: Church Festivals Reformation Lyrics: 1 A mighty fortress is our God, A trusty shield and weapon; Our help is He in all our need, Our stay, whate'er doth happen; For still our ancient foe Doth seek to work us woe: Strong mail of craft and power He weareth in this hour; On earth is not his equal. 2 Stood we alone in our own might, Our striving would be losing; For us the one true Man doth fight, The Man of God's own choosing. Who is this chosen One? 'Tis Jesus Christ, the Son. The Lord of hosts, 'tis He Who wins the victory In ev'ry field of battle. 3 And were the world with devils filled, All watching to devour us, Our souls to fear we need not yield, They cannot overpower us; Their dreaded prince no more Can harm us as of yore; His rage we can endure; For lo! his doom is sure, A word shall overthrow him.
