God in Human Flesh Appearing

Author: Philipp Friedrich Hiller; Matthias Loy Hymnal: The Hymnal and Order of Service #226 (1926) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D First Line: God, in human flesh appearing Lyrics: 1 God, in human flesh appearing, Took the children to His breast, Lambs with His green pastures cheering, Fitting for His heav'nly rest; This is gentleness unbounded, This is lowliness of heart; All are by His love surrounded, None are ever bid depart. 2 Lord, I bless Thy mercy endless, For Thy pleasure is to bless; Me, too, when my soul was friendless, Thou didst to Thy bosom press: For I, too, to Thee was given, In the pure baptismal wave, Thou hast made me heir of heaven, Who hast died my soul to save. 3 Feeble is the love of mother, Father's blessings are as naught, When compared, my King and Brother, With the wonders Thou hast wrought; Thus it pleased Thy heavenly meekness; Pleasing also be my praise, Till my songs of earthly weakness Burst into celestial lays. Amen. Topics: The Means of Grace Baptism; Sunday after New Year; Confirmation Scripture: Matthew 19:13 Languages: English Tune Title: JESUS ÄR MIN VÄN DEN BÄSTE

Come, O Jesus, And Prepare Me

Author: E. W. Olson; Franz Mikael Franzen Hymnal: American Lutheran Hymnal #55 (1930) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Lyrics: 1 Come, O Jesus, and prepare me Now to be Thy worthy guest. Like Thy well beloved disciple, Let me lean upon Thy breast At Thy table, where Thou givest Of Thy body and Thy blood, Sealing in this blest communion My baptismal vow to God. 2 Take my heart and make it holy By Thy Spirit and Thy grace; In Thy footsteps ever guide me, Help me win the heav'nly race. Thou who lovedst me from childhood, Be my refuge in my youth; In a world where error lures me, Lead me in Thy paths of truth. 3 Let me heed Thy voice entreating: Come, my child, abide with Me; Wouldst thou spurn the loving-kindness Of the Friend who died for Thee? Grant that, at Thy sacred altar, Thro' Thy sacrament of grace, With the faithful I be numbered, And Thy saving love embrace. Amen.

Hail, Thou Source Of Every Blessing

Gentiles now, Thy grace possessing, In Thy courts admission find. Grateful now we fall before Thee, In Thy Church obtain a place; Now by faith behold Thy glory, Praise Thy truth, adore Thy grace. 2 Once far off, but now invited, We approach Thy sacred throne; In Thy covenant united, Reconciled, redeemed, made one. Now revealed to eastern sages, See the star of mercy shine; Myst'ry hid in former ages, Myst'ry great of love divine. 3 Hail, Thou all-inviting Savior! Gentiles now their off'rings bring, In Thy temples seek Thy favor, Jesus Christ, our Lord and King. May we, body, soul and spirit, Live devoted to Thy praise, Glorious realms of bliss inherit, Grateful anthems ever raise. Topics: The Church Year Epiphany Languages: English Tune Title: DUEBEN

Hark! the voice of Jesus crying

Author: Daniel March, 1816 - 1909 Hymnal: Service Book and Hymnal of the Lutheran Church in America #59 (1958) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Lyrics: 1 Hark! the voice of Jesus crying, 'Who will go and work today? Fields are white and harvests waiting, Who will bear the sheaves away?' Loud and long the Master calleth; Rich reward he offers free; Who will answer, gladly saying, 'Here am I; send me, send me?' 2 If you cannot speak like angels, If you cannot preach like Paul, You can tell the love of Jesus, You can say he died for all. If you cannot rouse the wicked With the judgment's dread alarms, You can lead the little children To the Saviour's waiting arms. 3 Let none hear you idly saying, 'There is nothing I can do,' While the souls of men are dying, And the Master calls for you: Take the task he gives you gladly, Let his work your pleasure be; Answer quickly when he calleth, 'Here am I; send me, send me.'
