They pierce his hands and feet and side;
And with insulting scoffs and scorns,

No murm’ring word escaped his tongue.

Yet, if thou wilt, I’ll drink it up.
I’ve done the work thou gavest me,

Receive my spirit unto thee.”

The sun in shame withdrew its light!

Around these sacred symbols bow
And seek, as Saints of latter days,

1 Pange, lingua, gloriosi
Corporis mysterium
Sanguinisque pretiosi,
Quem in mundi pretium
Fructus ventris generosi
Rex effudit gentium.
2 Nobis datus, nobis natus
Ex intacta Virgine,
Et in mundo conversatus,
Sparso verbi semine,
Sui moras incolatus
Miro clausit ordine.
3 In supremae nocte coenae,
Recumbens cum fratribus,
Observata lege plene
Cibis in legalibus,
Cibum turbae duodenae
Se dat suis manibus.
4 Verbum caro, panem verum
Verbo carnem efficit:
Fitque sanguis Christi merum,
Et si sensus deficit,
Ad firmandum cor sincerum
Sola fides sufficit.
5 Tantum ergo Sacramentum
Veneremur cernui:
Et antiquum documentum
Novo cedat ritui;
Praestet fides supplementum

Salus, honor, virtus quoque

1 Sing, my tongue, the Savior’s glory,
Of his flesh the myst'ry sing;
Of the Blood, all price exceeding,
Shed by our immortal King,
Destined, for the world’s redemption,
From a noble womb to spring.
2 Of a pure and spotless virgin
Born for us on earth below,
He, as man, with us conversing,
Stayed, the seeds of truth to sow;
Then he closed in solemn order
Wondrously his life of woe.
3 On the night of that last supper,
Seated with his chosen band,
He, the Paschal victim eating,
First fulfills the Law’s command;
Then as food, to the disciples
Gives himself with his own hand.
4 Word made flesh, the bread of nature
By his word to flesh he turns;
Wine into his blood he changes,
What though sense no change discerns?
Only be the heart in earnest,
Faith its lesson quickly learns.
5 Down in adoration falling,
This great sacrament we hail;
Over ancient forms of worship
Newer rites of grace prevail;
Faith tells us that Christ is present,
When our human senses fail.
6 To the everlasting Father,
And the Son who made us free,
And the Spirit, God proceeding
From them Each eternally,
Be salvation, honor, blessing,
Might and endless majesty. Scripture: Luke 22:14-20 Languages: English; Latin Tune Title: ST. THOMAS (TANTUM ERGO)

1 Adoro te devote, latens Deitas,
Quae sub his figuris vere latitas:
Tibi se cor meum totum subjicit,
Quia te contemplans totum deficit.
2 Visus, tactus, gustus in te fallitur,
Sed auditu solo tuto creditur:
Credo quidquid dixit Dei Filius:
Nil hoc verbo Veritátis verius.
3 In Cruce latebat sola Deitas,
At hic latet simul et humanitas:
Ambo tamen credens atque confitens,
Peto quod petivit latro paenitens.
4 Plagas, sicut Thomas, non intueor:
Deum tamen meum te confiteor:
Fac me tibi semper magis credere,
In te spem habere, te diligere.
5 O memoriale mortis Domini,
Panis vivus, vitam praestans homini,
Praesta meae menti de te vivere,
Et te illi semper dulce sapere.
6 Pie pelicane, Jesu Domine,
Me immundum munda tuo sanguine,
Cujus una stilla salvum facere
Totum mundum quit ab omni scelere.
7 Jesu, quem velatum nunc aspicio,
Oro fiat illud quod tam sitio:
Ut te revelata cernens facie,
Visu sim beatus tuae gloriae.

1 Godhead here in hiding whom I do adore
Masked by these bare shadows, shape and nothing more.
See, Lord, at thy service low lies here a heart
Lost, all lost in wonder at the God thou art.
2 Seeing, touching, tasting are in thee deceived;
How says trusty hearing? that shall be believed;
What God's Son has told me, take for truth I do;
Truth himself speaks truly or there's nothing true.
3 On the cross thy godhead made no sign to men;
Here thy very manhood steals from human ken:
Both are my confession, both are my belief,
And I pray the prayer made by the dying thief.
4 I am not like Thomas, wounds I cannot see,
But I plainly call thee Lord and God as he:
This faith each day deeper be my holding of,
Daily make me harder hope and dearer love.
5 O thou, our reminder of the Crucified,
Living Bread, the life of us for whom he died,
Lend this life to me, then; feed and feast my mind,
There be thou the sweetness man was meant to find.
6 Like what tender tales tell of the Pelican,
Bathe me, Jesus Lord, in what thy bosom ran--
Blood that but one drop of has the pow'r to win
All the world forgiveness of its world of sin.
7 Jesus whom I look at shrouded here below,
I beseech thee, send me what I thirst for so,
Some day to gaze on thee face to face in light
And be blest forever with thy glory's sight. Scripture: 1 Thessalonians 2:19-20 Languages: English Tune Title: ADORO TE DEVOTE

Christus der wahre Gottes-Sohn
Hymnal: Evangelisch-Lutherisches Gesang-Buch #290 (1848) Topics: Gesänge vom Sacrament der heiligen Taufe Lyrics: 1 Christus der wahre Gottes-Sohn
richt't wiederum ein' Sündfluth an,
welch's ist die Tauf und Seelenbad,
das Er im Wort gefasset hat.
2 Solch; Tauf' kann nicht schlecht Wasser sein,
sondern es ist der Gnaden-Schein,
mit Gottes Wort verbunden wohl,
darin die Sünd' ersaufen soll.
3 Geht hin, spricht Er, in alle Welt,
tauft alle Heiden ohn' Entgeld,
wer nur gläubt und getaufet wird,
das ewig; leben er erwirdt.
4 Gott's Wort und Kraft im Wasser ist,
der Mensch hie neu geboren ist,
des Lebens Wasser Gnadenreich
führt ihn ins ewig' Himmelreich.
5 Gott Vater, Sohn, heiliger Geist,
zur Tauf' uns Alle kommen heißt,
da will Er gegenwartig sein,
von Sünden uns abwaschen rein.
6 Der alle Mensch ersäufet wird,
mit seinen Lüsten er erstirbt;
durch tägliche und wahre Buß
Er Gott nunmehro dienen muß.
7 Ein neuer Mensch tritt jetzt herein,
vor Gott ist er gezieret fein,
in Unschuld und Gerechtigkeit
lebt er vor Gott in Ewigkeit.
8 Von Sünden er erstanden ist,
Dank sei Dir, o Herr Jesu Christ!
Dir leben wir, Dir sterben wir,
Dein sind wir immer für und für.

5 Daß der Mensch sei wahr'r Gottes Sohn,
der sich am Jordan taufen lan,
als ein Sünder, das Er nicht ist,
und doch allein all' Sünde büßt.
6 Dadurch der Himmel aufgethan,
der heil'ge Geist herab gefahr'n,
der Vater gesagt zu uns All'n,
in Christo soll'n wir Ihm gefall'n.
7 Darauf empfahen wir die Tauf',
werden darein genommen auf,

Ich bin getauft, ich bin erkauft
Hymnal: Evangelisch-Lutherisches Gesang-Buch #293 (1848) Topics: Gesänge vom Sacrament der heiligen Taufe Lyrics: 1 Ich bin getauft,
ich bin erkauft,
durch Jesu Blut und Wunden;
nun steht es gut,
denn Jesu Blut
hat Gott und mich verbunden.
2 O Satans Macht!
O Todes Nacht!
nun trauret, ich bin fröhlich:
was ihr gedacht,
ist nicht vollbracht,
ich bin getauft und selig.
3 Ich lag zwar da,
der Höllen nah,
in angebornen Sünden,
ihr sahet das, nun sehet, was
mich Gott für Heil last finden.
4 Er zeigte mir die Lebens-Thür,
das Wasser-Bad im Worte,
nahm mich zur Stund
in seinen Bund,
schloß auf die Himmels-Pforte.
5 Das edle Bad,
das den Unflath
der Sünden weggenommen,
durch dessen Kraft
der Heidenschaft
ich gänzlich bin entnommen.
6 Das werthe Pfand
so in den Stand
der Sel'gen mich versetzet,
das feste Band,
da Gottes Hand
mich bindet und ergötzet.
7 Dadurch geschwind,
ich Gottes Kind
und Jesus Bruder (Schwester) worden.
Vom werthen Geist,
auch allermeist
geführt zum Christen-Orden.
8 Denn Er dabei,
gewirket frei,
und mich hat neu geboren,
auch also fort
zu seinem Ort
der Wohnung auserkoren.
9 Ich zoge an
den Jesus-Mann,
Er zog mich an hinwieder,
Er kleidet sich
in mich, und mich
in sich und seiner Güter.
10 Denn sein Verdienst,
als mein Gewinnst,
im Tauf-Brunn lag versenket,
was seine war,
ja Jesus gar,
wurd' damals mir geschenket.
11 Kann nun wohl je
(ich spreche nie)
mehr Trost gefunden werden,
als welchen hier,
mir zeiget für,
das Taufbad auf der Erden.
12 Du Schöpfer mild,
meinSchirm und Schild,
wie bist Du so langmüthig;
O! Gottes Sohn,
mein Gnaden-Thron,
wer ist, wie Du, so gütig!
13 Du fandest mich,
eh' als ich Dich
zu suchen noch vermochte,
Du hörtest drauf, und thätest auf,
eh' ich noch rief und pochte.
14 Ach! kann denn wohl
ich, wie ich soll,
dafür auch Gott was geben?
Nichts weiß ich mehr,
als Dank und ehr'
jetzt und im ganzen Leben.
15 Gott, dem sich hat
an meiner Statt,
meine Tauf-Zeug' fest verschrieben,
dem sag' ich nu
mich nochmals zu,
und schwöre Ihn zu lieben.
16 Ich sag' auch ab,
bis in mein Grab
dem, dem mein Zeug' entsaget,
kein Uederlein
soll Satans sein,
ob er mich gleich hier plaget.
17 Wann aber auch,
nach Menschen Brauch,
ich diesen Taufbund breche,
so brich ihn nicht,
mein Gott mein Licht,
halt mich in Deiner Pflege.
18 Du weißt vorhin,
wie schwach ich bin,
ach! hilf mir Sünde meiden.
Laß keine Noth,
Sünd, Satan Tod,
nichts, nichts, von Dir mich scheiden.
19 Die Kreuzes-Last,
darzu Du hast
mich damals ausersehen,
wir Deine Huld
wohl mit Geduld
mir helfen überstehen.
20 Und weil Du bist,
Herr Jesu Christ,
mein worden im Vertrauen;
so las mich bald, mein Aufenthalt,
dort völlig Dich anschauen.
21 Ich bin ja, Gott,
auf Deinen Tod
getauft und so begraben
mit Dir zugleich,
darum Dein Reich
ich muß zur Wohnung haben.
22 So nimm mich hin
zur Himmels-Zinn',
und las mich unterdessen,
in Leid und Freud,
ja allezeit,
die Taufe nicht vergessen.
