Author: Bartholomeus Ringwaldt; John Christian Jacobi Hymnal: Church Book #573 (1890) Lyrics: 1 When all with awe shall stand around
To hear their doom allotted,
O may my worthless name be found
In the Lamb's book unblotted!
Grant me a firm, unshaken faith;
For Thou, my Saviour, by Thy Death,
Hast purchased my salvation.
2 Before Thou shalt as Judge appear,
Pleased as my Intercessor;
And on that awful day declare
That I am Thy Confessor.
Then bring me to that blessed place
Where I may see, with open face,
The glory of Thy kingdom.
3 O Jesus! shorten the delay,
And hasten Thy salvation,
That we may see that glorious Day
Produce a new creation;
Lord, Jesus, come, our Judge and King!
Come, change our mournful notes, to sing
Thy praise for ever. Amen. Topics: Advent, Second Sunday; Ninth Sunday after Trinity; Twenty Sixth Sunday after Trinity; Twenty Seventh Sunday after Trinity Languages: English Tune Title: ES IST GEWISZLICH AND DER ZEIT
