Why should sorrow ever grieve me

Meter: 8.6.6.8.6.6 Appears in 22 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Why should sorrow ever grieve me; Christ is near, What can here E’er of Him deprive me? Who can rob me of my heaven That God’s Son As my own To my faith hath given? 2 Naked was I and unswathèd When on earth At my birth My first breath I breathèd. Naked hence shall I betake me When I go From earth’s woe, And my breath forsakes me. 3 Naught--not e’en the life I’m living, Is mine own, God alone All to me is giving. Must I then His own restore Him? Though bereft Of each gift, Still shall I adore Him. 4 Though a heavy cross I’m bearing, And my heart Feels the smart, Shall I be despairing? God can help me who doth send it, He doth know All my woe And how best to end it. 5 God oft gives me days of gladness, Shall I grieve If He give Seasons, too, of sadness? God is good, and tempers ever Every hurt; Me desert Wholly can He never. 6 Though united world and Devil, All their power Can no more Do than mock and cavil. Let derision now employ them, Christ e’en here Will appear And ’fore all destroy them. 7 True believers, shrinking never, Where they dwell, Should reveal Their true colors ever. When approaching death would scare them, Still should they Patient stay And with courage bear them. 8 Death can never kill us even, But relief From all grief To us then is given. It doth close life’s mournful story, Make a way That we may Pass to heavenly glory. 9 There I’ll reap enduring pleasure, After woe Here below Suffered in large measure. Lasting good we find here never, All the earth Deemeth worth Vanisheth forever. 10 What is all this life possesseth? But a hand Full of sand That the heart distresseth. Noble gifts that pall me never, Christ so free There gives me To enjoy forever. 11 Lord! Thou Fount of joy forever, Thou art mine, I am Thine, No one can us sever. I am Thine, because Thou gavest Life and blood For my good, By Thy death me savest. 12 Thou art mine, I love and own Thee, Ne’er shall I, Light of joy, From my heart dethrone Thee. Let me, let me soon behold Thee Face to face, Thy embrace-- May it soon enfold me! Topics: Cross and Comfort

Warum Sollt' Ich Mich Den Grämen?

Author: Paul Gerhardt Meter: 8.6.6.8.6.6 Appears in 98 hymnals First Line: Warum sollt’ ich mich den grämen? Lyrics: 1 Warum sollt’ ich mich den grämen? Hab’ ich doch Christum noch, Wer will mir den nehmen? Wer will mir den Himmel rauben, Den mir schon Gottes Sohn Beigelegt im Glauben? 2 Schickt er mir ein Kreuz zu tragen, Dringt herein Angst und Pein, Sollt’ ich drum verzagen? Der es schickt, der wird es wenden! Er weiss wohl, wie er soll All mein Unglück enden. 3 Gott hat mich bei guten Tagen Oft ergötzt: sollt’ ich jetzt Nicht auch etwas tragen? Fromm ist Gott und schärft mit Massen Sein Gericht, kann mich nicht Ganz und gar verlassen. 4 Unverzagt und ohne Grauen Soll ein Christ, wo er ist, Stets sich lassen schauen. Wollt’ ihn auch der Tod aufreiben, Soll der Mut dennoch gut Und fein stille bleiben. 5 Kann uns doch kein Tod nicht toeten, Sondern reisst unsern Geist Aus viel tausend Noeten, Schleusst das Tor der bittern Leiden Und macht Bahn, da man kann Gehn zu Himmelsfreuden. 6 Was sind dieses Lebens Güter? Eine Hand voller Sand, Kummer der Gemüter. Dort, dort sind die edlen Gaben, Da mein Hirt, Christus, wird Mich ohn’ Ende laben. 7 Herr, mein Hirt, Brunn aller Freuden, Du bist mein, ich bin dein, Niemand kann uns scheiden: Ich bin dein, weil du dein Leben Und dein Blut mir zugut In den Tod gegeben. 8 Du bist mein, weil ich dich fasse Und dich nicht, o mein Licht, Aus dem Herzen lasse. Lass mich, lass mich hingelangen, Da du mich und ich dich Leiblich werd’ umfangen! Used With Tune: EBELING

All The Skies Tonight Sing O'er Us

Author: John O'Connor Meter: 8.6.6.8.6.6 Appears in 3 hymnals First Line: All the skies tonight sing o’er us! Lyrics: 1 All the skies tonight sing o’er us! Sweet and far, star to star, Maketh solemn chorus. Time the midnight blest is telling When our Lord, God the Word, Made with us His dwelling. 2 Glory in the highest Heaven! And again, unto men, Their souls’ peace be given! All our wrong by Him is righted In whose birth Heav’n and earth Stand for aye united. 3 Sons of men, let nothing grieve you! Evermore Heaven’s door Widens to receive you! Brothers of the Babe eternal, In His name come and claim Grace and bliss supernal. Used With Tune: EBELING
