Deck Thyself, My Soul, with Gladness

Author: Johann Franck; Catherine Winkworth Hymnal: Psalter Hymnal (Red) #411 (1934) Meter: 8.8.8.8 D Topics: Spiritual Life Lyrics: 1 Deck thyself, my soul, with gladness, Leave the gloomy haunts of sadness, Come into the daylight’s splendor, There with joy thy praises render Unto Him whose grace unbounded Has this wondrous banquet founded. High o’er all the heavens He reigneth, Yet to dwell with thee He deigneth. 2 Hasten as a bride to meet Him, And with loving reverence greet Him; For with words of life immortal Now He knocketh at thy portal; Open wide the gates before Him, Saying, while thou dost adore Him, Suffer, Lord, that I receive Thee, And I never more will leave Thee. 3 Ah! how hungers all my spirit For the love I do not merit! Oft have I, with sighs fast thronging, Thought upon this food with longing; In the battle, well-nigh worsted, For this cup of life have thirsted, For the Friend, who here invites us, And to God Himself unites us. 4 Jesus, bread of life, I pray Thee, Let me gladly here obey Thee; By Thy love I am invited, Be Thy love with love requited. From this banquet let me measure, Lord, how vast and deep its treasure; Through the gifts Thou here dost give me As Thy guest in heaven receive me. Tune Title: SCHMÜCKE DICH, O LIEBE SEELE

O All Ye Peoples, Bless Our God

Hymnal: Psalter Hymnal (Red) #126 (1934) Topics: Spiritual Life Lyrics: 1 O all ye peoples, bless our God, Aloud proclaim His praise, Who safely holds our soul in life And steadfast makes our ways. Thou, Lord, hast proved and tested us As silver tried by fire; Thy hand has made our burden great And thwarted our desire 2 Through pain and trouble Thou hast led, And humbled all our pride; But, in the end, to liberty And wealth Thy hand did guide. Here in Thy house I give to Thee The life that Thou dost bless, And pay the solemn vows I made When I was in distress. 3 Come, ye that fear the Lord, and hear What He has done for me; My cry for help is turned to praise, For He has set me free. If in my heart I sin regard, My prayer He will not hear; But truly God has heard my voice, My prayer has reached His ear. 4 O let the Lord, our gracious God, Forever blessed be, Who has not turned my prayer from Him, Nor yet His grace from me. O all ye peoples, bless our God, Aloud proclaim His praise, Who safely holds our soul in life, And steadfast makes our ways. Scripture: Psalm 66 Languages: English Tune Title: ANCYRA
