The Bridgegroom soon will call us

Author: Johann Walther; Rev. Matthias Loy, D. D. Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran hymnal #24 (1908) Lyrics: 1 The Bridegroom soon will call us: Come, all ye wedding guests! May not His voice appall us, While slumber binds our breasts; May all our lamps be burning, And oil be found in store, That we, with Him returning May open find the door. 2 There shall we see delighted Our dear Redeemer's face, Who leads our souls benighted To glory by His grace; The patriarchs shall meet us, The prophets' holy band, Apostles, martyrs, greet us In that celestial land. 3 They will not blush to own us As brothers, sisters dear, Love ever will be shown us When we with them appear; We all shall come before Him, Who for us Man became, As Lord and God adore Him, And ever bless His name. 4 Our Father, rich in blessing, Will give us crowns of gold, And to His bosom pressing, Impart a bliss untold, Will welcome with embraces Of never-ending love, And deck us with His graces In blissful realms above. 5 In mansions fair and spacious Will God the feast prepare, And, ever kind and gracious, Bid us its riches share; There bliss that knows no measure From springs of love shall flow, And never changing pleasure His bounty will bestow.

Rejoice, rejoice, ye Christians

Author: Catherine Winkworth Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran hymnal #32 (1908) Lyrics: 1 Rejoice, rejoice, ye Christians, With all your hearts this morn! Oh, hear the blessed tidings, "The Lord, the Christ, is born!" Now brought us by the angels That stand about God's throne: O lovely are the voices That make such tidings known. 2 O hearken to their singing, "This Child shall be your Friend, The Father so hath willed it, That thus your woes should end; The Son is freely given, That in Him ye may have The Father's grace and blessing, And know He loves to save. 3 "Nor deem the form too lowly That clothes Him at this hour; For know ye what it hideth? 'Tis God's almighty power. Though now within the manger So poor and weak He lies, He is the Lord of all things, He reigns above the skies. 4 "Sin, death, and hell, and Satan Have lost the victory; This Child shall overthrow them, As ye shall surely see; Their wrath shall nought avail them, Fear not, their reign is o'er; This Child shall overthrow them,-- O hear and doubt no more."

Bright rays of autumn quiver

Author: Anon. Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran hymnal #139 (1908) Lyrics: 1 Bright rays of autumn quiver On fields of fretted gold, By purple hill and river Wide o'ver the land unrolled, And while the reapers gather The wealth of harvest day, To Thee, O bounteous Father, Thro' Christ we offer praise. 2 The precious things of heaven, Warm days and dewy nights, Soft rain in season given, Bright clouds and tender lights; Their genial influence blending, Matured the sower's boon, Till heavy ears were bending Beneath the harvest moon, 3 And now, like hands uplifted, The sheaves in order stand, To praise the Lord, who gifted With plenteous store the land; Our lips shall own His kindness, And tell His love abroad, To shame the willful blindness Of those who know not God. 4 Lord, while the whole creation Bears witness to Thy care, O hear our supplication; And grant Thy children's prayer; While thus our wants supplying, Our table Thou dost spread, O feed our souls undying With Christ, the Living Bread!

Jesus, thy love unbounded

For us thou cam'st from heaven, For us didst bleed and die, That, ransomed and forgiven, We might ascend on high. A-men. 2 We know that thou hast bought us, And washed us in thy Blood; We know thy grace hath brought us As kings and priests to God, We know that the blessèd morning, Long looked for, draweth near, When we, at thy returning, In glory shall appear. 3 O let thy love constrain us To give our hearts to thee; Let nothing please or pain us, Apart, O Lord, from thee; Our joy, our one endeavor, Through suffering, conflict, shame, To serve thee, gracious Saviour, And magnify thy Name.
