Author: Johann Heermann; Rev. Matthias Loy, D. D. Appears in 15 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Thine honor rescue, righteous Lord!
Hear Zion’s sighs and help afford;
Destroy the wiles of potent foes,
Who now Thy Word and truth oppose.
2 Their craft and vaunting pomp are great;
High beat their hearts, with power elate;
Our dearest hopes they but deride,
And deem us nothing in their pride.
3 Forgive, O Lord! our sins forgive,
Show us Thy face and let us live:
Convince Thy foes throughout the land
That godless counsels shall not stand.
4 Preserve Thy little flock in peace,
Nor let Thy boundless mercy cease;
Let it to all the world appear
Thy holy Church indeed is here.
5 That Thou art with us, loud proclaim
Who put'st each enemy to shame;
Dost all their haughtiness suppress,
And help Thine own in their distress. Topics: The Catechism The Church; Sunday after New Year's; Tenth Sunday after Trinity Used With Tune: HEBRON
Thine honor rescue, righteous Lord!
