Lord, to Thee I make confession

Author: Miss Winkworth; John Frank Hymnal: Church Book #353 (1890) Meter: 8.7.8 Topics: Quinquagesima Sunday Lyrics: 1 Lord, to Thee I make confession, I have sinned and gone astray, I have multiplied transgression, Chosen for myself my way. Forced at last to see my errors Lord, I tremble at Thy terrors. 2 Yet though conscience' voice appall me, Father, I will seek Thy face; Though Thy child I dare not call me, Yet receive me in Thy grace; Do not for my sins forsake me, Let not yet Thy wrath o'ertake me. 3 For Thy Son hath suffered for me, And the Blood He shed for sin, That can heal me and restore me, Quench this burning fire within; 'Tis alone His Cross can vanquish These dark fears and soothe this anguish. 4 Then on Him I cast my burden, Sink it in the depths below! Let me know Thy gracious pardon, Wash me, make me white as snow. Let Thy Spirit leave me never, Make me only Thine for ever! Languages: English Tune Title: HERR ICH HABE MISSGEHANDELT

Like Noah's weary dove

Author: William Augustus Muhlenberg Hymnal: Church Book #365 (1890) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Topics: Quinquagesima Sunday Lyrics: 1 Like Noah's weary dove, That soared the earth around, But not a resting-place above The cheerless waters found: 2 O cease, my wandering soul, On restless wings to roam; All the wide world, to either pole, Has not for thee a home. 3 Behold the ark of God, Behold the open door; Hasten to gain that dear abode, And rove, my soul, no more. 4 There safe thou shalt abide, There sweet shall be thy rest, And every longing satisfied, With full salvation blest.

Thee we adore, Eternal Word!

Author: John Patrick Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran hymnal #61 (1908) Topics: The Church Year Passion; Sixth Sunday in Lent; Quinquagesima Lyrics: 1 Thee we adore, Eternal Word! The Father's equal Son; By heaven's obedient hosts adored, Ere time its course begun. 2 The first creation has displayed Thine energy divine; For not a single thing was made By other hands than Thine. 3 But ransoned sinners, with delight, Sublimer facts survey,-- The all-creating Word unites Himself to dust and clay. 4 Creation's Author now assumes A creature's humble form: A man of grief and woe becomes, And trod on like a worm. 5 The Lord of glory bears the shame To vile transgressors due; Justice the Prince of life condemns To die in anguish too. 6 God over all, for ever blessed, The righteous curse endures; And thus, to souls with sin distressed, Eternal bliss insures. 7 What wonders in Thy person meet, My Savior, all divine! I fall with rapture at Thy feet, And would be wholly Thine. Languages: English Tune Title: LUCERNE (Trias)

A Lamb bears all the guilt away

Author: Paul Gerhardt; John Kelley Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran hymnal #67 (1908) Topics: The Church Year Passion; Fifth Sunday in Lent; Quinquagesima Lyrics: 1 A Lamb bears all its guilt away The world thus to deliver, All sins of sinners patiently It bears and murmurs never. It goes, and weak and sick is made, An off'ring on the altar laid, All pleasure it forsaketh, Submits to shame, and scorn, and wrath, To anguish, wounds, stripes, cross, and death, This cup with gladness taketh. 2 This spotless Lamb, our soul’s great Friend, And everlasting Savior, God chooseth sin’s dread reign to end And bring us to His favor. Go forth, my Son! redeem to Thee The children who’re exposed by me To punishment and anger. The punishment is great, and dread The wrath, but Thou Thy blood shalt shed, And free them thus this danger. 3 Shrine of my heart! now opened be, To thee shall now be given Fair treasures that far greater be Than earth, and sea, and heaven. Away, gold of Arabia, Myrrh, calamus, and cassia! Far better I discover. My priceless treasure is, O Thou My Jesus! what so freely now From Thy wounds floweth over! 4 And when at last heav’n’s gate I see, And taste the kingdom’s pleasure, This blood shall then my purple be, I’ll clothe me in this treasure; It shall be then my glorious crown, In which I’ll stand before the throne Of God, with none to blame me; And as a bride in fair array, I’ll stand beside my Lord that day, Who woo’d, and then will claim me.

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!
