A mighty fortress is our God
Hymnal: Christian Hymns #270 (1898) Meter: 8.7.8.7.6.6.6.6.7 Topics: TheChurch Year Festival of the Reformation Lyrics: 1 A mighty fortress is our God,
A trusty shield and weapon;
Our help is He in all our need,
Our stay, whate'er doth happen.
The old malignant foe
Doth seek to work us woe;
His craft and power are great,
And, armed with cruel hate,
On earth is not his equal.
2 With might of ours naught can be done,
Soon were our loss effected;
But for us fights the Valiant One,
Whom God Himself elected.
Ask ye who this may be?
Christ Jesus, it is He;
Lord Sabaoth is His name,
From age to age the same,--
He holds the field forever.
3 And were the world with devils filled,
All eager to devour us,
Our souls to fear should little yield,
They cannot overpower us.
The prince of darkness grim,
We tremble not for him;
His rage we can endure,
For lo! his doom is sure,
One little word can fell him.
4 The Word they still shall let abide,
Nor thanks be due them for it;
The Lord of hosts is by our side,
Grants us His gifts and Spirit;
And though they take our life,
Goods, honor--children, wife,
Yet, when their worst is done,
They still have nothing won:
The Kingdom ours remaineth. Languages: English Tune Title: A MIGHTY FORTRESS IS OUR GOD

O Morning Star, how fair and bright
Hymnal: Christian Hymns #274 (1898) Meter: 8.8.7.8.8.7.8.4.4.8 Topics: TheChurch Year Christmas Lyrics: 1 O Morning Star, how fair and bright
Thou beamest forth in truth and light!
O Sovereign meek and lowly,
Thou Root of Jesse, David's Son,
My Lord and Bridegroom, Thou hast won
My heart to serve Thee solely.
Holy art Thou, fair and glorious,
All victorious,
Rich in blessing,
Rule and might o'er all possessing.
2 Thou heavenly Brightness! Light divine!
O deep within my heart now shine,
And make Thee there an altar;
Fill me with joy and strength to be
Thy member, ever joined to Thee
In love that cannot falter.
Toward Thee longing doth possess me:
Come and bless me;
For Thy gladness
Eye and heart here pine in sadness.
3 But if Thou look on me in love,
There straightway falls from God above
A ray of purest pleasure;
Thy Word and Spirit, flesh and blood,
Refresh my soul with heavenly food,
Thou art my hidden treasure;
Let Thy grace, Lord, warm and cheer me,
O draw near me!
Thou hast taught us
Thee to seek, since Thou hast sought us,
4 Here will I rest, and this hold fast:
The Lord I love is first and last,
The end and the beginning.
Through Him to His own Paradise,
Above all tears, all sinning;
Amen! Amen! Come, Lord Jesus,
Soon release us!
With deep yearning,
Lord, we look for Thy returning.

Hymnal: Christian Hymns #275 (1898) Meter: 8.8.7.8.8.7.8.4.4.8 Topics: TheChurch Year Whitsuntide Lyrics: 1 O Holy Spirit, enter in,
Among these hearts Thy work begin,
Thy temple deign to make us;
Sun of the soul, Thou Light divine,
Around and in us brightly shine,
To strength and gladness wake us.
Where Thou shinest, life from heaven
There is given:
We before Thee
For that precious gift implore Thee.
2 Left to ourselves we shall but stray;
O lead us on the narrow way,
With wisest counsel guide us;
And give us steadfastness, that we
May henceforth truly follow Thee,
Whatever woes betide us:
Heal Thou gently hearts now broken,
Give some token
Thou art near us,
Whom we trust to light and cheer us.
3 O mighty Rock! O Source of Life!
Let Thy dear Word, 'mid doubt and strife,
Be so within us burning,
That we be faithful unto death
In Thy pure love and holy faith,
From Thee true wisdom learning.
Lord, Thy graces on us shower!
By Thy power
Christ confessing,
Let us win His grace and blessing.
4 O gentle Dew, from heaven now fall
With power upon the hearts of all,
Thy tenderness instilling;
That heart to heart more closely bound,
Fruitful in kindly deeds be found,
The law of love fulfilling;
No wrath, no strife, then shall grieve Thee;
We receive Thee:
Where Thou livest
Peace and love and joy Thou givest.
5 Grant that our days, while life shall last,
In purest holiness be passed;
Our minds so rule and strengthen
That they may rise o'er things of earth,
The hopes and joys that here have birth;
And if our course Thou lengthen,
Keep Thou pure, Lord, from offences
Heart and senses;
Blessed Spirit,
Bid us thus true life inherit. Languages: English Tune Title: O MORNING STAR! HOW FAIR AND BRIGHT

As each happy Christmas
There is a green hill far away
Hymnal: Christian Hymns #288 (1898) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: TheChurch Year The Passion Lyrics: 1 There is a green hill far away,
Without a city wall,
Where Christ our Lord was crucified,
Who died to save us all.
2 We may not know, we cannot tell,
What pains He had to bear;
But we believe it was for us
He hung and suffered there.
3 He died that we might be forgiven,
He died to make us good,
That we might go at last to heaven,
Saved by His precious blood.
4 There was no other good enough
To pay the price of sin;
He only could unlock the gate
Of heaven, and let us in.
5 Oh, dearly, dearly has He loved!
And we must love Him too,
And trust in His redeeming blood,
And try His works to do. Languages: English Tune Title: ST. AGNES

Children's songs delight His ear.

Touch their tongues with holy fire.

For to save my soul He died;
He for me bore pain and sorrow,
Nailed hands and pierced side.

Jesus hears the prayers I pray;
And He never, never leaves me,
When I work, or when I play.

Over me with loving eye,
And He sends His holy angels
Safe to keep me till I die.

Now I pray Thee, by Thy love,
Keep me ever pure and holy,
Till I come to Thee above! Languages: English Tune Title: BERGGREEN

Thy little ones, dear Lord, are we
Hymnal: Christian Hymns #298 (1898) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: TheChurch Year Christmas Lyrics: 1 Thy little ones, dear Lord, are we,
And come Thy lowly bed to see;
Enlighten every soul and mind,
That we the way to Thee may find.
2 With songs we hasten Thee to greet,
And kiss the dust before Thy feet.
O blessed hour, O sweetest night,
That gave Thee birth, our Soul's Delight!
3 Now welcome! From Thy heavenly home
Thou to our vale of tears art come;
Man hath no offering for Thee, save
The stable, manger, cross, and grave.
4 Jesus, alas! how can it be
So few bestow a thought on Thee,
Or on the love, so wondrous great,
That drew Thee down to our estate?
5 O draw us wholly to Thee, Lord,
Thou dearest Friend, to us accord
Thy grace; Thy faith to us impart,
That we may hold Thee in our heart.
6 Keep us, howe'er the world may lure,
In our baptismal covenant pure;
That every yearning thought may be
Directed only unto Thee:
7 Until at last we too proclaim,
With all Thy saints, Thy glorious name;
In Paradise our songs renew,
And praise Thee as the angels do.
8 We gather round Thee, Jesus, dear,
So happy in Thy presence here;
Grant us, our Saviour, every one,
To stand in heaven before Thy throne. Languages: English Tune Title: THY LITTLE ONES, DEAR LORD, ARE WE
