There Many Shall Come from the East

Author: M. B. Landstad, 1802-80; P. O. 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. Have mercy upon us, O Jesus! Scripture: Matthew 8:11 Languages: English Tune Title: DER MANGE SKAL KOMME

Oscar Ahnfelt

1813 - 1882 Person Name: Oskar Ahnfelt, 1813-1882 Composer of "AHNFELT" in Ambassador Hymnal Oscar Ahnfelt (1813 -1882) was a Swedish singer and composer. He wrote the music for many of Lina Sandell’s hymns. A pietist, he raised some concern in the State-church, but his music was apparently so popular, King Karl XV gave him permission to play and sing in both of his kingdoms. Ahnfelt’s music has spread throughout the world; two of his best-known songs are “Children of the Heavenly Father” and “Day by Day.” Laura de Jong

Anonymous

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.

M. B. Landstad

1802 - 1880 Person Name: M. B. Landstad, 1802-80 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.
