Help me, O Lord, to trust in Thee
Appears in 5 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Help me, O Lord, to trust in Thee,
Whatever may betide;
Though health should fail, and riches flee,
Though friends, the dearest far to me,
Be taken from my side.
2 I know that sickness, sorrow, death,
Lie in the onward way;
O help me, in true-hearted faith,
To rest on Jesus' word, which saith,
"Strength shall be as thy day."
3 In sickness passed, in dangers o'er,
My Helper Thou hast been;
Then should I, for each coming hour,
Trust childlike that thy love and power
Support will yield again.
4 Though in that last, that darksome glade,
Ends all our earthly view,
If but Thy voice, "Be not afraid,"
Be heard amid its deepening shade,
I'll calmly journey through.
5 When this poor heart on Thee I stay,
On earth is heaven begun;
Then love leads on from day to day
In duty's path and helps me say,
"Thy will, not mine, be done."
6 Thus would I ever trust in Thee,
My Comforter and Guide:
For e'en though fears and sins prevail,
Thy promises can never fail,
Whatever may betide. Topics: Christian Life and Hope ; The Walk of Godliness Cross and Consolation
Help me, O Lord, to trust in Thee
I know full well death must befall me
Appears in 10 hymnals Lyrics: 1 I know full well death must befall me;
I know not when, or where, or how:
It may be that my God will call me
To-day, to-morrow, even now;
Ere yet this present hour is fled,
This living body may be dead.
2 I know, --God hath this knowledge given--
To me death is not death, indeed;
To me death is a gate to heaven,
A bound and end of all my need,
A gentle evening, peaceful, blest,
When I have passed from toil to rest.
3 Lord, let my soul, with unfeigned gladness,
In living faith Thy call await
To leave its cave of sin and sadness,
And this vain world for heaven's estate;
O keep my heart prepared alway,
To lay aside this mortal clay.
4 Lord, grant that, by contrition riven,
My heart I daily offer Thee,
And let me close this life for heaven,
Sealed by Thy death and agony:
O let Thy death, with passion rife,
My comfort be, my balm and life.
5 Lord, daily let me die then, ever;
And at the last stand Thou by me,
That death may not from Thee sever,
But bring me nearer unto Thee!
Then welcome my last hour shall be,
When, where, and how it pleaseth Thee. Topics: Christian Life and Hope ; The Consummation Contemplation of Death

"I know that my Redeemer lives"
Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 473 hymnals Lyrics: 1 "I know that my Redeemer lives;"
What comfort this sweet sentence gives!
He lives, He lives, who once was dead,
He lives, my ever living Head.
2 He lives to bless me with His love,
He lives to plead for me above,
He lives my hungry soul to feed,
He lives to help in time of need.
3 He lives to grant me rich supply,
He lives to guide me with His eye,
He lives to comfort me when faint,
He lives to hear my soul's complaint.
4 He lives to silence all my fears,
He lives to stop and wipe my tears,
He lives to calm my troubled heart,
He lives, all blessings to impart.
5 He lives, all glory to His name!
He lives, my Jesus, still the same;
O the sweet joy this sentence gives,
I know that my Redeemer lives! Topics: The Church Year Easter
"I know that my Redeemer lives"
I know whom I believe in
Appears in 9 hymnals Lyrics: 1 I know whom I believe in,
I know what firm abides,
When all around me fading
Away like vapor glides.
I know what lasts forever,
When all things shake and fall,
When wit the wise forsaketh,
And craft doth craft forestall.
2 It is the Light of Glory;
It is my Jesus, King;
It is the Rock I stand on;
It is of this I sing.
He never more shall fail me,
Deliv'rer, Shepherd mine,
He lighteth all my darkness,
He makes my path to shine.
3 He whom blood-stained they buried
In the still twilight hour,
He whom God waked from slumber,
He who arose in power:
He for my guilt atoneth,
To me His Spirit gives,
Me with His grace He crowneth:
I live because He lives.
4 I know what I believe in,
I know what standeth fast,
And what, when earth shall crumble,
Uncrumbled, still shall last;
Through sorrow it bides with me,
Mine when to death I bow,
In heaven it will assure me
A crown to deck my brow. Topics: The Catechism The Redeemer

Nor may each purpose tell,
But this I know to wake my praise:
Thou doest all things well.

The glowing fires along,
Which serve to purge away the dross
And make the spirit strong.

Each trial to abide,
And ever let my bleeding heart
Cling to Thy bleeding side. Topics: Christian Life and Hope ; The Walk of Godliness Cross and Consolation

In His temple now behold Him
Appears in 52 hymnals Lyrics: 1 In His temple now behold Him,
See the long-expected Lord;
Ancient prophets had foretold Him,
God has now fulfilled His Word;
Now to praise Him, His redeemed
Shall break forth with one accord.

Virgin pure, behold Him lie,
While His aged saints adore Him,
Ere in perfect faith they die:
Halleluiah! Halleluiah!
Lo! th'Incarnate God most high.

Thou who cam'st in lowly mien,
Make us see our great salvation,
Make our hearts all pure within;

To Thy Father, pure and clean.

In Thy dear name and by Thy favor

This day we lay the corner-stone,
To build a house, O God and Savior,
To Thee, and to Thy praise alone.

Perform Thy work of grace, dear Lord.
2 O let us all by faith be grounded,
Lord Jesus Christ, on Thee alone;
That is our midst Thy praise be sounded,
Who art the Church's Corner-stone.
To keep us in Thy faith and fear,
Build Thee and us a temple here.
3 Accept our off'rings, we implore Thee,
And bless the work we have begun;
To Thee alone and to Thy glory
This building consecrate, when done;
Then will we hither come, and raise
Our hearts to Thee in thanks and praise.

In Thy pure Word and Sacrament;
Be with us all, forsake us never;
To serve Thee make our hearts intent;
And when we die, O grant that we
Be found in cov'nant grace with Thee.

The path to happiness and God;
Her weak directions leave the mind
Bewildered in a doubtful road.

Eternal life, on these I live;
Diviner comforts cheer my heart
Than all the powers of nature give.

Thou art the true, the living way.
Let Thy good Spirit be my guide
To the bright realms of endless day.
4 The various forms that men devise
To shake my faith with treach'rous art
I scorn as vanity and lies
And bind Thy Gospel to my heart.
