God, In Human Flesh Appearing

Author: M. Loy; Philipp Friedrich Hiller Hymnal: American Lutheran Hymnal #39 (1930) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Lyrics: 1 God, in human flesh appearing, Took the children to His breast, Lambs with His green pastures cheering, Fitting for His heav'nly rest; This is gentleness unbounded, This is lowliness of heart; All are by His love surrounded, None are ever bid depart. 2 Lord, I bless Thy mercy endless, For Thy pleasure is to bless; Me, too, when my soul was friendless, Thou didst to Thy bosom press; For I, too, to Thee was given In the pure baptismal wave; There Thou mad'st me heir of heaven, Who hast died my soul to save. 3 Feeble is the love of mother, Father's blessings are as naught When compared, my King and Brother, With the wonders Thou hast wrought; Thus it pleased Thy heav'nly meekness; Pleasing also be my praise, Till my songs of earthly weakness Burst into celestial lays.

God, in human flesh appearing

Author: Philip Friedrich Hiller; Rev. Matthias Loy, D. D. Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran hymnal #224 (1908) Lyrics: 1 God, in human flesh appearing, Took the children to His breast, Lambs with His green pastures cheering, Fitting for His heav'nly rest; This is gentleness unbounded, This is lowliness of heart; All are by His love surrounded, None are ever bid depart. 2 Lord, I bless Thy mercy endless, For Thy pleasure is to bless; Me, too, when my soul was friendless, Thou didst to Thy bosom press: For I, too, to Thee was given, In the pure baptismal wave, There Thou mad'st me heir of heaven, Who hast died my soul to save. 3 Feeble is the love of mother, Father's blessings are as naught, When compared, my King and Brother! With the wonders Thou hast wrought; Thus it pleased Thy heavenly meekness; Pleasing also be my praise, Till my songs of earthly weakness Burst into celestial lays.
