Savior, who Thy flock art feeding

Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymn-book #449 (1918) Meter: 8.7.8.7 Topics: Catechism Lyrics: 1 Ssvior, who Thy flock art feeding With the shepherd's kindest care, All the feeble gently leading, While the lambs Thy bosom share. 2 Now, these little ones receiving, Fold them in Thy gracious arm; There, we know, Thy word believing, Only there secure from harm. 3 Never, from Thy pasture roving, Let them be the Lion's prey; Let Thy tenderness, so loving, Keep them through life's dangerous way. 4 Then within Thy fold eternal Let them find a resting-place: Feed in pastures ever vernal, Drink the rivers of Thy grace.

The Church's one foundation

Author: Rev. S. J. Stone Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran hymnal #491 (1908) Topics: The Catechism The Church Lyrics: 1 The Church's one foundation Is Jesus Christ her Lord; She is His new creation By water and the Word; From heav'n He came and sought her To be his holy Bride; With His own blood He bought her, And for her life He died. 2 Elect from every nation, Yet one o'er all the earth, Her charter of salvation: One Lord, one faith, one Birth; One holy Name she blesses, Partakes one holy food, And to one hope she presses, With every grace endued. 3 'Mid toil and tribulation, And tumult of her war She waits the consummation Of peace forevermore: Till with the vision glorious Her longing eyes are blest, And the great Church victorious Shall be the church at rest. 4 Yet she on earth has union With God the Three in One, And mystic sweet communion With those whose rest is won. O happy ones and holy! Lord, give us grace that we, Like them, the meek and lowly, On high may dwell with Thee. Languages: English Tune Title: AURELIA

My faith looks up to Thee

Author: Rev. Ray Palmer Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran hymnal #492 (1908) Topics: The Catechism Faith Lyrics: 1 My faith looks up to thee, Thou Lamb of Calvary, Savior Divine: Now hear me while I pray, Take all my guilt away, O let me from this day Be wholly Thine! 2 May Thy rich grace impart strength to my fainting heart, My zeal inspire; As thou hast died for me, O may my love to Thee Pure, warm, and changeless be, A living fire. 3 While life’s dark maze I tread, And griefs around me spread, Be thou my guide; Bid darkness turn to day, Wipe sorrow’s tears away, Nor let me ever stray From Thee aside. 4 When ends life’s transient dream, When death’s cold, sullen stream Shall o’er me roll; Blest Savior, then, in love, Fear and distrust remove; O bear me safe above, A ransomed soul!

There is an eye that never sleeps

Author: James Cowden Wallace Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran hymnal #493 (1908) Topics: The Catechism Prayer Lyrics: 1 There is an eye that never sleeps Beneath the wing of night; There is an ear that never shuts, When sink the beams of light. 2 There is an arm that never tires, When human strength gives way; There is a love that never fails, When earthly love decays. 3 That eye is fixed on seraph throngs; That arm upholds the sky; That ear is filled with angel songs; That love is throned on high. 4 But there's a power that man can wield When mortal aid is vain, That eye, that arm, that love to reach, That listening ear to gain. 5 That power is prayer, which soars on high, Through Jesus, to the throne, And moves the hand which moves the world, To bring salvation down.

When cold our hearts and far from Thee

Author: Rev. John S. B. Monsell Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran hymnal #494 (1908) Topics: The Catechism Prayer Lyrics: 1 When cold our hearts and far from Thee Our wand'ring spirits stray, And tho'ts and lips move heavily, Lord, teach us how to pray. 2 Too vile to venture near Thy throne, Too poor to turn away; Our only voice,--Thy Spirit's groan,-- Lord, teach us how to pray. 3 We know not how to seek Thy face, Unless Thou lead the way; We have no words, unless Thy grace, Lord, teach us how to pray. 4 Here every thought and fond desire We on Thine altar lay; And when our souls have caught Thy fire, Lord, teach us how to pray.

What a Friend we have in Jesus

Author: Joseph Scriven Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran hymnal #495a (1908) Topics: The Catechism Prayer Lyrics: 1 What a Friend we have in Jesus, All our sins and griefs to bear! What a privilege to carry Ev'rything to God in pray'r! O what peace we often forfeit, O what needless pain we bear, All because we do not carry Ev'rything to God in pray'r! 2 Have we trials and temptations? Is there trouble anywhere? We should never be discouraged: Take it to the Lord in prayer! Can we find a friend so faithful Who will all our sorrows share? Jesus knows our every weakness-- Take it to the Lord in prayer! 3 Are we weak and heavy laden, Cumbered with a load of care? Precious Savior, still our Refuge,-- Take it to the Lord in prayer! Do thy friends despise, forsake thee? Take it to the Lord in prayer! In His arms He'll take and shield you; Thou wilt find a solace there. Languages: English Tune Title: MANT (Autumn)

See Israels gentle Shepherd stand

Author: Rev. Philip Doddridge Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran hymnal #496 (1908) Topics: The Catechism Holy Baptism Lyrics: 1 See Israel’s gentle Shepherd stand, With all engaging charms; Hark! how He calls the tender lambs, And folds them in His arms. 2 "Permit them to approach," He cries, "Nor scorn their humble name: It was to bless such souls as these The Lord of angels came." 3 We bring them, Lord, with grateful hearts, And yield them up to Thee; Joyful that we ourselves are Thine, Thine let our offspring be!
