Allgenungsam

Representative Text

1 Mein Heiland ruft mir zu:
Kind, deine Kraft ist klein;
In Mir nur find’st du Ruh,
Ich will dir alles sein.

Chor:
Jesu Opfertod
Tilget all mein Weh;
Meine Schuld, wie Blut so rot
Wird rein und weiß wie Schnee.

2 O Herr, Dein treues Blut
Wäscht meine Flecken rein;
Du bist’s, der Wunder tut,
Ja Herr, nur Du allein. [Chor]

3 Nichts Gutes ist in mir,
Dass Deine Gnad verdient,
Mein Heil steht nur in Dir,
Der mich mit Gott versühnt. [Chor]

4 Kommst, Herr, zu sammeln Du,
Die Deinen groß und klein,
So führ auch mich dazu
Mit dir zum Himmel ein. [Chor]

Author: Elvina M. Hall

Hall, Elvina Mable, was born at Alexandria, Virginia, in 1818; and was married, first to Mr. Richard Hall, and then, in 1885, to the Rev. Thomas Myers. Her hymn, "I hear the Saviour say" (Christ All and in All), in I. D. Sankey's Sacred Songs and Solos, 1878, is somewhat popular in Great Britain and America. It was "written on the fly-leaf of the New Lute of Zion, in the choir of the Methodist Episcopal Church, Baltimore, in the spring of 1865." --John Julian, Dictionary of Hymnology, Appendix, Part II (1907)  Go to person page >
