Landstad, 1802-1880 Meter: 11.9.11.9.9 Appears in 15 hymnals First Line: A multitude comes from the east and the west Lyrics: 1 A multitude comes from the east and the west To sit at the feast of salvation With Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, the blest, Obeying the Lord's invitation. Have mercy upon us, O Jesus! 2 O God, let us hear when our shepherd shall call In accents persuasive and tender, That while there is time we make haste, one and all, And find him, our mighty defender. Have mercy upon us, O Jesus! 3 All trials shall then like a dream that is past; Forgotten all trouble and mourning. All questions and doubts have been answered at last, When rises the light of that morning. Have mercy upon us, O Jesus! 4 The heavens shall ring with an anthem more grand Than ever on earth was recorded; The blest of the Lord shall receive at his hand The crown to the victors awarded.

Pray, Tell me, How Cam'st Thou so Easily in

Author: Andreas Carl Rutström, 1721-1772 Meter: 11.9.11.9.9 Appears in 4 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Pray, tell me, how cam'st thou so easily in Through yonder bright portal of heaven, Since not to a soul here polluted by sin Admission there ever was given? Wast thou not akin to the fallen? 2 By grace did I live, and in grace did I die, By grace did I enter these portals; Lo, this is the ground and the reason why I Am one of the blessed immortals, Who sing hallelujah forever. 3 Oh, blesséd art thou who in life and in death Hast grace for thine only foundation! For sinners condemned, so His holy Word saith, Can plead nothing else for salvation. For grace, then, give thanks everlasting. Amen. Topics: Faith and Justification Used With Tune: ACK, KÄRE, SÅ SÄG

Der Mange Skal Komme Fra Øst Og Fra Vest

Author: magnus B. Landstad Meter: 11.9.11.9.9 Appears in 5 hymnals First Line: Der mange skal komme fra øst og fra vest Lyrics: 1 Der mange skal komme fra øst og fra vest Og sitte til bords i Guds rike, Med Abraham, Isak og Jakob til gjest Hos ham som bød inn oss å stige! Miskunne deg over oss, Jesus! 2 Men de som hovmodig i tro på seg selv Vil bort fra Guds nåde seg vende, Fordømmes og taper sitt liv og sin sjel. De kan ei Guds kjærlighet kjenne. Miskunne deg over oss, Jesus! 3 Gud, hjelp oss å høre med kjærlighets brann Vår hyrde som lokker så blide, Så vi kunne skynde oss, kvinne og mann, Og samle oss hos ham i tide. Miskunne deg over oss, Jesus! 4 Gid jeg måtte finnes, og alle med meg I Herrens beseglede skare. Gud føre oss nådig til himlen hos seg Og fri oss fra helvedes fare! Miskunne deg over oss, Jesus! 5 Gud, gi meg å være den salige gjest Som sitter hos kongen for borde, Å være hos ham i den evige fest Når her de meg gjemmer i jorde! Miskunne deg over oss, Jesus! 6 Da glemmes det kors som på jorden jeg bar, Da slukner så mildelig sorgen, Da skal det bli klart, det som gåtefullt var, Da rinner den lyse dags morgen. Miskunne deg over oss, Jesus! 7 Da toner det gjennom den himmelske hall En lovsang med fryd uten like. For tronen og Lammet de salige skal Få juble i himlenes rike. Miskunne deg over oss, Jesus!

Om han komme i dag

Author: Lina Sandell Hymnal: Lutherförbundets Sångbok #S157 (1913) Meter: 11.9.11.9.9 First Line: Om han komme i dag, din Herre och Gud Lyrics: 1 Om han komme i dag, din Herre och Gud, Skulle helst från hans åsyn du fly? Om du hörde i dag, det kallande ljud Af basunen från himmelens sky, Skulle fröjd eller ångest dig fatta? 2 Månne allt, hvad som nu är viktigt och strot, Jämväl då skulle synas dig så? Månne allt, hvad i dag blir taladt och gjordt, Blefve taladt och gjordt äfven då? Besinna dig, innan du svarar! 3 Månne det eller det, som trycker dig nu Och som vållar så mångfaldig nöd, Skulle trycka dig då? O, månne väl du Skulle sörja för kläder och bröd Med hedningens oro i hjärtat? 4 Om han komme i dag, rättfärdig och vis, Till att ställa oss all för sig, Månne människors dom och människors pris Skulle synas af värde för dig Eller falla med tyngd uti vågen? 5 Om han komme i dag – o pröfva dig än, Medan anskriet dröjer, och säg: Är hans ankomst dig kuar, eller fruktar du den? O, hvart leder dock slutlight din våg? Den stund du ej menar han kommer! Topics: Väckelse och Inbjudning; Invitation Languages: Swedish Tune Title: [Om han komme i dag, din Herre och Gud]

There Many Shall Come from the East

Strømme, 1856-1921 Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymnary #200 (1996) Meter: 11.9.11.9.9 First Line: There many shall come from the east and the west Lyrics: 1 There many shall come from the east and the west And sit at the feast of salvation With Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, the blest, Obeying the Lord's invitation. Have mercy upon us, O Jesus! 2 But they who have always resisted His grace And on their own virtue depended, Shall then be condemned and cast out from His face, Eternally lost and unfriended. Have mercy upon us, O Jesus! 3 O may we all hear when our Shepherd doth call, In accents persuasive and tender, That while there is time we make haste one and all And find Him, our mighty Defender. Have mercy upon us, O Jesus! 4 O that we the throng of the ransomed may swell, To whom He hath granted remission. God graciously make us in heaven to dwell And save us from endless perdition. Have mercy upon us, O Jesus! 5 God grant that I may of His infinite love Remain in His merciful keeping; And sit with the King at His table above, When here in the grace I am sleeping. Have mercy upon us, O Jesus! 6 All trials are then like a dream that is past, Forgotten all trouble and sorrow; All questions and doubts have been answered at last; Then dawneth eternity's morrow. Have mercy upon us, O Jesus! 7 The heavens shall ring with an anthem more grand Than ever on earth was recorded; The blest of the Lord shall receive at His hand The crown to the victors awarded.

M. B. Landstad

1802 - 1880 Person Name: M. B. Landstad, 1802-80 Meter: 11.9.11.9.9 Author of "There Many Shall Come from the East" in Evangelical Lutheran Hymnary Magnus Brostrup Landstad (born 7 October 1802 in Måsøy, Norway and died 8 October 1880 in Kristiania) was a Norwegian minister, psalmist and poet who published the first collection of authentic Norwegian traditional ballads in 1853. This work was criticized for unscientific methods, but today it is commonly accepted that he contributed significantly to the preservation of the traditional ballads. Landstad lived with his father Hans Landstad (1771–1838) who was also a minister, first in 1806 to Øksnes, to Vinje in 1811 and to Seljord in 1819. He took a theological degree (cand. theol) in 1827, and worked after that as the resident chaplain in Gausdal for six years. After that he worked in different parishes in Telemark, Østfold before he became minister of Sandar in Vestfold in 1859. He married Wilhelmine Margrete Marie Lassen, in 1828. He is well known for introducing popular, contemporary Norwegian language into the hymns he wrote, contributing significantly to the spirit of Norwegian romantic nationalism which grew in Norway in this period. His greatest single achievement was the Landstad Hymnbook (Kirkepsalmebog), which with later revisions was used in Norwegian (bokmål) parishes from 1869 until 1985. The current official church hymnbook contains a lot of his hymns and his translations of foreign hymns. He was the cousin of Hans Peter Schnitler Krag. The Landstad-institute, which lies in Seljord, is named after him. He was a great grandfather of Magny Landstad, also a famous writer. Publications-- 1852: Norske Folkeviser. 3 vols. Christiania: C.

Anonymous

Meter: 11.9.11.9.9 Composer of "STOCKHOLM" in The Cyber Hymnal In some hymnals, the editors noted that a hymn's author is unknown to them, and so this artificial "person" entry is used to reflect that fact. Obviously, the hymns attributed to "Author Unknown" "Unknown" or "Anonymous" could have been written by many people over a span of many centuries.

Carolina Sandell

1823 - 1903 Person Name: Lina Sandell Meter: 11.9.11.9.9 Author of "Om han komme i dag" in Lutherförbundets Sångbok Caroline W. Sandell Berg (b. Froderyd, Sweden, 1832; d. Stockholm, Sweden, 1903), is better known as Lina Sandell, the "Fanny Crosby of Sweden." "Lina" Wilhelmina Sandell Berg was the daughter of a Lutheran pastor to whom she was very close; she wrote hymns partly to cope with the fact that she witnessed his tragic death by drowning. Many of her 650 hymns were used in the revival services of Carl O. Rosenius, and a number of them gained popularity particularly because of the musical settings written by gospel singer Oskar Ahnfelt. Jenny Lind, the famous Swedish soprano, underwrote the cost of publishing a collection of Ahnfelt's music, Andeliga Sänger (1850), which consisted mainly of Berg's hymn texts. Bert Polman

Meter: 11.9.11.9.9 Editors: M. B. Landstad Description: The SmallChurchMusic site was launched in 2006, growing out of the requests from those struggling to provide suitable music for their services and meetings. Rev. Clyde McLennan was ordained in mid 1960’s and was a pastor in many small Australian country areas, and therefore was acutely aware of this music problem.

All recordings are in MP3 format. Churches all around the world use the recordings, with downloads averaging over 60,000 per month. The recordings normally have an introduction, several verses and a slowdown on the last verse. Users are encouraged to use software: Audacity (http://www.audacityteam.org) or Song Surgeon (http://songsurgeon.com) (see http://scm-audacity.weebly.com for more information) to adjust the MP3 number of verses, tempo and pitch to suit their local needs.
