Deck Yourself, My Soul, with Gladness
Author: Catherine Winkworth; Johann Franck; John Caspar Mattes Hymnal: The Worshipbook #351 (1972) Meter: 8.8.8.8 D Lyrics: 1 Deck yourself, my soul, with gladness,
Leave behind all gloom and sadness.
Come into the daylight’s splendor,
There with joy your praises render
Unto him whose grace unbounded
Has this wondrous banquet founded;
Come, for now the King most holy
Stoops to you in likeness lowly.
2 Sun, who all my life does brighten;
Light, who does my soul enlighten;
Joy, your wondrous gift bestowing;
Fount, from which all good is flowing:
At your feet I cry, my Maker,
Let me be a fit partaker
Of this blessed food from heaven,
For our good, your glory, given.
3 Jesus, source of life and pleasure,
Trusted friend and dearest treasure,
By your love I am invited,
Be your love with love requited.
From this banquet let me measure,
Lord, how vast and deep its treasure;
Through the gifts that here you give me,
As your guest in heaven receive me.

In thy heavenly fold to gather;
With thy precious Blood hast bought us
To restore us to the Father.

That his faith on thee is founded
Whom the Father's love bestoweth
Through eternal grace unbounded.

Art a Saviour freely given,

And none else in earth or heaven. Topics: The Life in Christ Repentance and Faith Languages: English Tune Title: SCHMUCKE DICH

Deck yourself, my soul, with gladness

leave the gloomy haunts of sadness.
Come into the daylight's splendour,
there with joy your praises render
to the Lord whose grace unbounded
has this royal banquet founded:
though all other powers excelling,
with my soul he makes his dwelling.
2 Lord, I bow before you lowly,
filled with joy most deep and holy,
as with trembling awe and wonder
all your mighty works I ponder —
how, by mystery surrounded,
depth no-one has ever sounded,
none may dare to pierce unbidden
secrets that in you are hidden.
3 Shining sun, my life you brighten,
radiance, you my soul enlighten;
joy, the best of all our knowing,
fountain, swiftly in me flowing:
at your feet I kneel, my Maker —
let me be a fit partaker
of this sacred food from heaven,
for our good, your glory, given.
4 Jesus, Bread of life, I pray you,
let me gladly here obey you;
never to my hurt invited,
always by your love delighted:
from this banquet let me measure,
Lord, how vast and deep its treasure;
through the gifts your hands have given
let me be your guest in heaven. Topics: God's Church Holy Communion Languages: English Tune Title: SCHMÜCKE DICH

Author: Johann Franck; Catherine Winkworth Hymnal: Psalter Hymnal (Red) #411 (1934) Meter: 8.8.8.8 D Lyrics: 1 Deck thyself, my soul, with gladness,
Leave the gloomy haunts of sadness,
Come into the daylight’s splendor,
There with joy thy praises render
Unto Him whose grace unbounded
Has this wondrous banquet founded.
High o’er all the heavens He reigneth,
Yet to dwell with thee He deigneth.
2 Hasten as a bride to meet Him,
And with loving reverence greet Him;
For with words of life immortal
Now He knocketh at thy portal;
Open wide the gates before Him,
Saying, while thou dost adore Him,
Suffer, Lord, that I receive Thee,
And I never more will leave Thee.
3 Ah! how hungers all my spirit
For the love I do not merit!
Oft have I, with sighs fast thronging,
Thought upon this food with longing;
In the battle, well-nigh worsted,
For this cup of life have thirsted,
For the Friend, who here invites us,
And to God Himself unites us.
4 Jesus, bread of life, I pray Thee,
Let me gladly here obey Thee;
By Thy love I am invited,
Be Thy love with love requited.
From this banquet let me measure,
Lord, how vast and deep its treasure;
Through the gifts Thou here dost give me
As Thy guest in heaven receive me. Topics: Bread of Life; Communion Service; Friendship of God or Christ; Invitation; Joy; Longing for God or Christ; Lord's Supper; Spiritual Life; Water of Life Tune Title: SCHMÜCKE DICH, O LIEBE SEELE

Soul, Adorn Yourself with Gladness
Author: Johann Franck; Catherine Winkworth Hymnal: Trinity Hymnal (Rev. ed.) #421 (1990) Meter: 8.8.8.8 D Lyrics: 1 Soul, adorn yourself with gladness,
leave the gloomy haunts of sadness,
come into the daylight's splendor,
there with joy your praises render.
Bless the One whose grace unbounded
this amazing banquet founded;
he, though heav'nly, high, and holy,
deigns to dwell with you most lowly.
2 Hasten as a bride to meet him,
eagerly and gladly greet him.
There he stands already knocking;
quickly, now, your gate unlocking,
open wide the fast-closed portal,
saying to the Lord immortal:
"Come, and leave your loved one never;
dwell within my heart forever."
3 Now in faith I humbly ponder
over this surpassing wonder
that the bread of life is boundless
though the souls it feeds are countless;
with the choicest wine of heaven
Christ's own blood to us is given.
Oh, most glorious consolation,
pledge and seal of my salvation.
4 Jesus, source of lasting pleasure,
truest friend and dearest treasure,
peace beyond all understanding,
joy into all life expanding:
humbly now, I bow before you,
love incarnate, I adore you;
worthily let me receive you,
and, so favored, never leave you. Topics: Bread of Life; Cheerfulness; Christ Friend; Union with Christ Scripture: Revelation 19:7-9 Languages: English Tune Title: SCHMÜCKE DICH
