O Tod, wo ist dein Stachel nun

Author: Georg Weissel Appears in 88 hymnals Scripture: 2 Timothy 1:10 First Line: O Tod, wo ist dein Stachel nun? Lyrics: 1 O Tod, wo ist dein Stachel nun? Wo ist dein Sieg, o Hölle? Was kann uns jetzt der Teufel tun, wie grausam er sich stelle? Gott sei gedankt, der uns den Sieg so herrlich hat nach diesem Krieg durch Jesus Christ gegeben! 2 Wie sträubte sich die alte Schlang, da Christus mit ihr kämpfte! Mit List und Macht sie auf ihn drang, und dennoch er sie dämpfte. Ob sie ihn in die Ferse sticht, so sieget sie doch darum nicht, der Kopf ist ihr zertreten. 3 Lebendig Christus kommt herfür, die Feind nimmt er gefangen, zerbricht der Hölle Schloß und Tür, trägt weg den Raub mit Prangen. Nichts ist, das in dem Siegeslauf den starken Held kann halten auf, alls liegt da überwunden. 4 Des Herren Rechte, die behält den Sieg und ist erhöhet; des Herren Rechte mächtig fällt, was ihr entgegenstehet. Tod, Teufel, Höll und alle Feind durch Christi Sieg bezwungen seind, ihr Zorn ist kraftlos worden. 5 Es war getötet Jesus Christ, und sieh, er lebet wieder. Weil nun das Haupt erstanden ist, stehn wir auch auf, die Glieder. So jemand Christi Worten glaubt, im Tod und Grabe der nicht bleibt; er lebt, ob er gleich stirbet. 6 Wer täglich hier durch wahre Reu mit Christus auferstehet, ist dort vom andern Tode frei, derselb ihn nicht angehet. Genommen ist dem Tod die Macht, Unschuld und Leben wiederbracht und unvergänglich Wesen. 7 Das ist die reiche Osterbeut, der wir teilhaftig werden: Fried, Freude, Heil, Gerechtigkeit im Himmel und auf Erden. Hier sind wir still und warten fort, bis unser Leib wird ähnlich dort Christi verklärtem Leibe. 8 O Tod, wo ist dein Stachel nun? Wo ist dein Sieg, o Hölle? Was kann uns jetzt der Teufel tun wie grausam er sich stelle? Gott sei gedankt, der uns den Sieg so herrlich hat in diesem Krieg durch Jesus Christ gegeben!

Oh, blessed thought! in dying We go to meet the Lord, Where there shall be no sighing, A kingdom our reward.

Gently heal those hearts now broken; give some token you are near us, whom we trust to light and cheer us. 3 O mighty rock, O source of life, let your good word in doubt and strife be in us strongly burning, that we be faithful unto death and live in love and holy faith, from you true wisdom learning.

Therefore let us joyful be And sing to God right thankfully Loud songs of alleluia! Alleluia! 2 No son of man could conquer death, Such ruin sin had wrought us. No innocence was found on earth, And therefore death had brought us Into bondage from of old And ever grew more strong and bold And held us as its captive. Alleluia! 3 Christ Jesus, God's own Son, came down, His people to deliver; Destroying sin, He took the crown From death's pale brow forever: Stripped of pow'r, no more it reigns; An empty form alone remains; Its sting is lost forever. Alleluia! 4 It was a strange and dreadful strife When life and death contended; The victory remained with life, The reign of death was ended. Holy Scripture plainly saith That death is swallowed up by death, Its sting is lost forever. Alleluia! 5 Here our true Paschal Lamb we see, Whom God so freely gave us; He died on the accursed tree-- So strong His love--to save us. See, His blood now marks our door; Faith points to it; death passes o'er, And Satan cannot harm us. Alleluia! 6 So let us keep the festival To which the Lord invites us; Christ is Himself the joy of all, The sun that warms and lights us. Now His grace to us imparts Eternal sunshine to our hearts; The night of sin is ended. Alleluia! 7 Then let us feast this Easter Day On Christ, the bread of heaven; The Word of grace has purged away The old and evil leaven. Christ alone our souls will feed; He is our meat and drink indeed; Faith lives upon no other! Alleluia! Used With Tune: CHRIST LAG IN TODESBANDEN
