Brueckner Hymnal: American Lutheran Hymnal #544 (1930) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Confirmation Lyrics: 1 All hail, thou day of wondrous grace, My confirmation day, When I the steps of God retrace, Imprinted on my way. 2 When I was but an infant small, He pledged His love to me; He called me with a holy call His child and heir to be. 3 The sacred washing I received, That cleansed me well from sin; Of ev'ry guilty stain relieved, I now have peace within. 4 From parents kind and teachers true, By Thee, my God, ordained, I learned Thy holy will to do, By faith in Christ sustained. 5 So now I come before Thy throne, Thy precious name to bless, Resolved to serve Thee as Thine own In truth and holiness. 6 I consecrate myself to Thee In body, soul and mind; Do Thou but help and strengthen me, Thou Hope of all mankind. 7 While in this world of sin and strife, Vouchsafe to me Thy grace Till I have reached the end of life And see Thee face to face.

From perils sore it shieldeth Thy trembling soul indeed; At last it rends the azure sky, The earth thy body yieldeth To join thy soul on high. 3 The crown of life is given To thee who faithful art, Who earnestly hast striven To serve with trusting heart. God moveth thee thy voice to raise, And sendeth thee from heaven Sweet tunes, His name to praise. 4 With voices sweetly ringing, We therefore bless His hand, To Christ our tribute bringing With heaven's joyful band. He is the Victor in the strife; His praises ever singing, We pass thro' death to life. Languages: English Tune Title: APPEAL
