Now lay we calmly in the grave

Author: M. Weiss; Dr. M. Luther Hymnal: Hymns of the Evangelical Lutheran Church #32 (1886) Topics: Death And Eternity Lyrics: 1 Now lay we calmly in the grave this form, whereof no doubt we have that it shall rise again that day, in glorious triumph o'er decay. 2 And so to earth again we trust What came from dust, and turns to dust, And from the dust shall surely rise, When the last trumpet fills the skies. 3 His soul forever lives in God, Whose grace his pardon hath bestowed, Who through His Son redeemed him here From bondage unto sin and fear. 4 His trials and his griefs are past, A blessed end is his at last; He bore Christ's yoke, and did His will, And though he died, he liveth still. 5 He lives where none do mourn and weep, And calmly shall this body sleep, Till God shall death himself destroy, And raise it into glorious joy. 6 He suffered pain and grief below, Christ heals him now from all his woe; For him hath endless joy begun; He shines in glory like the sun. 7 Then let us leave him to his rest, And homeward turn, for he is blest; And we must well our souls prepare, For death may seize us everywhere. 8 So help us, Christ, our Hope in loss! Thou hast redeemed us by Thy cross From endless death and misery; We praise, we bless, we worship Thee! Languages: English Tune Title: [Now lay we calmly in the grave]

Vain were the terrors that gathered around him, and short the dominion of death and the grave. He burst from the fetters of evil that bound him, resplendent in glory, to live and to save. Loud was the chorus of angels on high, the Savior has risen, and we shall not die. 2 Glory to God, in full anthems of joy; the being God gave us, death cannot destroy. Sad were the life we may part with tomorrow, if tears were our birthright and death were our end. But Jesus has cheered the deep valley of sorrow, and bade us, immortal, to heaven ascend. Lift then your voices in triumph on high, for Jesus has risen, and we shall not die. Scripture: Matthew 28:1-10 Tune Title: RESURRECTION

O God, Our Help in Ages Past

Sufficient is your arm alone, and our defense is sure. 3 Before the hills in order stood, or earth received its frame, from everlasting you are God, to endless years the same. 4 A thousand ages in your sight are like an evening gone, short as the watch that ends the night before the rising sun. 5 Time, like an ever-rolling stream, soon bears us all away. We fly forgotten, as a dream dies at the op’ning day. 6 O God, our help in ages past, our hope for years to come, still be our guard while troubles last, and our eternal home.
