Jesus Christ, My Sure Defense

Author: Luise Henriette of Brandenburg; Catherine Winkworth Meter: 7.8.7.8.7.7 Appears in 56 hymnals Matching Instances: 26 Lyrics: 1. Jesus Christ, my sure Defense And my Savior, ever liveth; Knowing this, my confidence Rests upon the hope it giveth Though the night of death be fraught Still with many an anxious thought. 2. Jesus, my Redeemer, lives; I, too, unto life shall waken. Endless joy my Savior gives; Shall my courage, then, be shaken? Shall I fear, or could the Head Rise and leave His members dead? 3. Nay, too closely I am bound Unto Him by hope forever; Faith’s strong hand the Rock hath found, Grasped it, and will leave it never; Even death now cannot part From its Lord the trusting heart. 4. I am flesh and must return Unto dust, whence I am taken; But by faith I now discern That from death I shall awaken With my Savior to abide In His glory, at His side. 5. Glorified, I shall anew With this flesh then be enshrouded; In this body I shall view God, my Lord, with eyes unclouded; In this flesh I then shall see Jesus Christ eternally. 6. Then these eyes my Lord shall know, My Redeemer and my Brother; In His love my soul shall glow— I myself, and not another! Then the weakness I feel here Shall forever disappear. 7. They who sorrow here and moan There in gladness shall be reigning; Earthly here the seed is sown, There immortal life attaining, Here our sinful bodies die, Glorified to dwell on high. 8. Then take comfort and rejoice, For His members Christ will cherish. Fear not, they will hear His voice; Dying, they shall never perish; For the very grave is stirred When the trumpet’s blast is heard. 9. Laugh to scorn the gloomy grave And at death no longer tremble; He, the Lord, who came to save Will at last His own assemble. They will go their Lord to meet, Treading death beneath their feet. 10. Oh, then draw away your hearts Now from pleasures base and hollow. There to share what He imparts, Here His footsteps ye must follow. Fix your hearts beyond the skies, Whither ye yourselves would rise. Used With Tune: JESUS, MEINE ZUVERSICHT Text Sources: Chorale Book for England, 1863

Rest upon His sacred word-- That assurance doth afford! 4 Jesus gives us joy and tears, Blesséd be His name forever! When thy way most dark appears, Trust in Him, despond thou never; Weary soul, when sore distressed, Call on Him and be at rest. 5 Surely, narrow is the way To the land of gladness yonder; While on this sad earth we stay, We must here as pilgrims wander, Through the desert we must roam, Till we Canaan reach, our home. 6 Upward, then, my weary soul, Where the crown of life is given! Pressing onward to the goal, I shall win the bliss of heaven; For, O Jesus, I am Thine, Blest am I, for Thou art mine!

'T is when flesh and blood repine, Sun of joy, Thou canst not shine. 6 Thus my soul is still and waits, Every murmuring word she hushes, Conqu'ring thus the pain or wrong That the restless spirit crushes; Like a silent ocean, bright With its Maker's praise and light.
