O Blessed Day When First was Poured

Author: John Chandler; Sabastien Besnault Hymnal: The Lutheran Hymnal #115 (1941) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 O blessed day when first was poured The blood of our redeeming Lord! O blessed day when Christ began His saving work for sinful man! 2 While from His mother's bosom fed, His precious blood He wills to shed; A foretaste of His death He feels, An earnest of His love reveals. 3 Scarce come to earth, His Father's will With prompt obedience to fulfil, A victim even now He lies Before the day of sacrifice. 4 In love our guilt He undertakes; Sinless, for sin atonement makes. The great Lawgiver for our aid Obedient to the Law is made. 5 Lord, circumcise our heart, we pray, And take what is not Thine away. Write Thine own name upon our hearts, Thy Law within our inward parts. 6 O Lord, the Virgin-born, to Thee Eternal praise and glory be, Whom with the Father we adore And Holy Ghost forevermore. Amen.

O Happy Day, When First Was Poured

Author: Sebastien Besnault; John Chandler Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #8309 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 O happy day, when first was poured The blood of our redeeming Lord! O happy day, when first began His sufferings for sinful man! 2 Just entered on this world of woe, His blood already learned to flow; His future death was thus expressed, And thus His early love confessed. 3 From Heaven descending to fulfill The mandates of His Father’s will, E’en now behold the victim lie, The Lamb of God, prepared to die! 4 Lord, circumcise our hearts, we pray, Our fleshly natures purge away; Thy name, Thy likeness may they bear: Yea, stamp Thy holy image there! 5 O Lord, the virgin born, to Thee Eternal praise and glory be, Whom with the Father we adore, And Holy Ghost forevermore.
