Jesu, du mitt lif, min helsa
Christ the Life of all the Living
Author: Ernest Christopher Homburg, 1605-1681 Hymnal: Hymnal and Order of Service #54a (1901) Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.7.7.7 Lyrics: 1 Christ the Life of all the living,
Christ the Death of death our foe,
Who Thyself for us once giving
To the darkest depths of woe,
Patiently didst yield Thy breath
but to save my soul from death,
Praise and glory ever be,
Blessed Jesus, unto Thee.
2 Thou, ah Thou, hast taken on Thee
Bitter strokes, a cruel rod;
Pain and scorn were heaped upon Thee,
0 Thou sinless Son of God.
Only thus for me to win
Rescue from the bonds of sin;
Praise and glory ever be,
Blessed Jesus, unto Thee.
3 Thou didst bear the smiting only
That it might not fall on me;
Stoodest falsely charged and lonely,
That I might be safe and free;
Comfortless that I might know
Comfort from Thy boundless woe.
Praise and glory ever be,
Blessed Jesus, unto Thee.
4 Then for all that wrought our pardon,
For Thy sorrows deep and sore,
For Thine anguish in the garden,
I will thank Thee evermore;
Thank Thee with my latest breath
For Thy sad and cruel death,
For that last and bitter cry;
Praise Thee evermore on high. Topics: Lent Languages: English Tune Title: JESU! DU MITT LIF, MIN HÄLSA
Christ the Life of all the Living
