Lord, dismiss us with Thy blessing

Hymnal: ELH1880 #12 (1880) Lyrics: 1 Lord, dismiss us with Thy blessing; Fill our hearts with joy and peace; Let us each, Thy love possessing, Triumph in redeeming grace: O refresh us! Trav'ling through this wilderness. 2 Thanks we give, and adoration, For Thy gospel's joyful sound; May the fruits of Thy salvation In our hearts and lives abound; May Thy presence With us evermore be found. 3 So whene'er the signal's given Us from earth to call away, Born on angel's wings to heaven, Glad to leave our cumbrous clay, May we, ready, Rise and reign in endless day!

Your praise and homage bring Him, And loud hosannas sing Him With holy festive zeal. 2 Look up! ye drooping mourners, The King is very near; Away with grief and sorrow, For lo! our Help is here. Behold, in holy place-- O blessed consolation!-- We find Him, our Salvation, In His pure means of grace. 3 Arise! ye much afflicted, Your King is not afar; Rejoice, ye long dejected, Here comes the Morning Star. The Lord is with us now; Though troubles here distress you, With comfort He will bless you, E'en death to Him shall bow. 4 Up, up! ye faint and fearful, The King now comes with might; His heart hath long since loved us, And makes our darkness light. Now are our sorrow o'er; No wrath shall e'er befall us, Since God in grace doth call us His children evermore. 5 Haste then, with eager footsteps, To see your Sovereign; there He rides as King of Zion, Strong, glorious, meek, and fair, Draw near the Lord, and give Him your heart's salutation, Who bringeth great salvation, And bids the sinner live. 6 Our Sovereign still remembers His loved ones here below With gifts of royal treasures, Yea, doth Himself bestow. Through His blest Word and grace; O King, arrayed in splendor, To Thee all praise we render, Here, and there face to face. 7 Lord, how Thou dost enrich us! Thyself made poor and weak; O, Love beyond expression, That can thus sinners seek! What can we do for Thee? We will love's tribute bring Thee, And glad hosannas sing Thee, And ever grateful be.

Say with what salutations

Hymnal: ELH1880 #18 (1880) Lyrics: 1 Say with what salutations Shall I Thine advent greet? Desire of all the nations, My Joy and Refuge meet! O Jesus, Jesus! lead me On by Thy blessed light, Teach me whate'er delights Thee To understand aright. 2 With palms doth Zion meet Thee, Spreads branches in the way; To raise my soul to greet Thee Glad psalms I’ll sing to-day. My heart shall bloom forever With joys and praises new, And from Thy name shall never Withhold the honor due. 3 What hast Thou e’er neglected For my good here below? When heart and soul dejected, Were sunk in deepest woe, When from Thy presence hidden, Where peace and pleasures are, Thou camest, and hast bidden Me joy again, my Star! 4 In bitter bondage lying, Thou com’st and sett’st me free, ’Neath scorn and shame when sighing, Thou com’st and raisest me. Thy grace high honor gives me, Abundance doth bestow, That wastes not, nor deceives me As earthly riches do. 5 No other impulse led Thee To leave Thy throne above, Upon Thine errand sped Thee, But world-embracing love! A love that deeply feeleth The wants and woes of men, No tongue its fulness telleth, It passeth human ken. 6 Sin’s debt, the mighty burden, Let not Thy heart affright; The Lord will freely pardon, His grace will cover quite. He comes! He comes! salvation Proclaiming everywhere, Secures His chosen nation Their heritage so fair. 7 Thy foes, why should they move Thee? Their wiles and rage are vain, Thy Savior, who doth love thee, Will scatter them again. O come, Thou Son, and lead us To everlasting light, Up to Thy mansions guide us Of glory and delight.

Thy welcome shall proclaim, And heaven's eternal arches ring With Thy beloved name. Topics: The Church Year Advent Languages: English

Is this Jesus, then, the Lord

Hymnal: ELH1880 #21 (1880) Lyrics: 1 Is this Jesus, then, the Lord, Promised since the world began? Ask the blind to sight restored, Ask the lame who leaped and ran; 2 Ask the once loathed leper clean, Ask the dead to life restored: They will tell thee Christ hath been,-- Christ will ever be--the Lord. 3 Say thou, poor man, hath not He, As the Prophet spake of old, Preached his Gospel unto thee? Is not this the Christ foretold? 4 Come unto Him, all ye meek, Shun not of His cross the same: Blest all they His love who seek, Bearing witness to His name.
