Oh, How Great Is Thy Compassion
Author: August Crull, d. 1923; Johann Olearius Hymnal: The Lutheran Hymnal #384 (1941) Meter: 8.7.7.8.7.7 Topics: Faith and Justification Lyrics: 1 Oh, how great is Thy compassion,
Faithful Father, God of grace,
That with all our fallen race
And in our deep degradation
Thou wast merciful that we
Might be saved eternally!
2 Thy great love for this hath striven
That we may from sin be free
And forever live with Thee;
Yea, Thy Son Himself hath given
In His grace an earnest call
To His Supper unto all.
3 And for this our souls' salvation
Voucheth Thy good Spirit, Lord,
In Thy Sacraments and Word.
He imparteth consolation,
Granteth us the gift of faith
That we fear nor hell nor death.
4 Lord, Thy mercy will not leave me--
Truth doth evermore abide--
Then in Thee I will confide.
Since Thy Word cannot deceive me,
My salvation is to me
Well assured eternally.
5 I will praise Thy great compassion,
Faithful Father, God of grace,
That with all our fallen race
And in our deep degradation
Thou wast merciful that we
Might bring endless praise to Thee.
Amen. Scripture: 2 Corinthians 9:15 Languages: English Tune Title: ACH, WAS SOLL ICH SÜNDER MACHEN

As By One's Sin Fell All Our Kin
Author: Emanuel Cronenwett Hymnal: American Lutheran Hymnal #135 (1930) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: The Means of Grace Faith and Justification Lyrics: 1 As by one's sin fell all our kin,
Conceived and born sin-stained,
So by One's grace, who took the place
Of all, are all regained,
Of all, are all regained.
2 The blood-red tide from Christ's cleft side,
Shed for the good of all,
Is laver pure to cleanse and cure
All lost in Adam's fall,
All lost in Adam's fall.
3 Of it are born, though once forlorn,
The saints in Him baptized;
Its life receive all who believe
That Jesus is the Christ,
That Jesus is the Christ.
4 His righteousness is crown and dress
Of those who own Him Lord,
Who, sin-oppressed, find in Him rest
And keep His faithful Word,
And keep His faithful Word.
5 To God be praise through endless days,
In whom we live and move,
God--Father, Son and Spirit--One,
The Triune God of Love!
The Triune God of Love!
Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: COWPER
As By One's Sin Fell All Our Kin
Children Of God, Born Again Of His Spirit
Author: H. A. Brorson Hymnal: Hymnal for Church and Home #198 (1927) Meter: 11.10.11.10.11.11 Topics: Faith and Justification Lyrics: 1 Children of God, born again of His Spirit,
Never we cease in His name to rejoice,
Jesus believing, and sav'd by His merit,
Come we to God with a jubilant voice.
Let then each voice to the Father uplifted
Widely proclaim that with grace we are gifted.
2 Evil by nature, and dead in transgression,
Cold as a statue, and hard as a stone,
This was our state when Thou, mov'd by compassion,
Chose in Thy wisdom to call us Thine own.
Led by Thy Spirit, and call'd by Thy favor,
Heard we the life-giving voice of our Savior.
3 When we consider the tho'ts of our Father,
As He elected us children by grace,
Sending His Spirit with mercy to gather
Us who had fallen and turn'd from His face,
How can we help to be mode by His favor,
And to acclaim Him our Father forever.
4 What can be charg'd to the Father's elected
Whom He made just in Christ Jesus, our Lord,
Here is sweet balsam for all the afflicted,
Grace for the lost in His life-giving Word.
Faith, passing thro' ev'ry fear of damnation,
Found in the Savior the pledge of salvation.
5 Come, then, ye faithful, reborn of the Spirit,
Know ye the mind of your Father above,
Learn that He sav'd you alone by His merit,
Taking you into His bosom of love.
Children, who into His bosom do gather,
Bless Him, and thank Him, acclaim Him your Father.

Our God so loved the world that He
Through Jesus' bloody merit
Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymn-book #221 (1893) Meter: 7.6 Topics: Faith and Justification Lyrics: 1 THROUGH Jesus' blood and merit
I am at peace with God;
What, then, may daunt my spirit,
However dark my road?
My courage shall not fail me,
For God is on my side;
Though hell itself assail me,
Its rage I may deride.
2 There's nothing that can sever
Me from the love of God;
No want, no pain whatever,
No famine, peril, blood.
Though thousand foes surround me,
And in their base design
A sheep for slaughter count me,
The victory still is mine.
3 Through Him that loved me dearly
From all eternity,
I can rejoice sincerely
In all this misery;
For this is my persuasion,
I cling to this firm faith,
Of which on no occasion
Shall rob me hell, nor death:
4 That neither life's temptation,
Nor death's most trying hour,
Nor angels of high station,
Nor any other power,
Nor things that now are present,
Nor things that are to come,
Nor height, however pleasant,
Nor depth of deepest gloom;
5 Nor any creature ever
Shall from the love of God
Me, the poor sinner, sever;
For in my Saviour's blood
This love its fountain taketh;
He hears my faithful prayer,
And nevermore forsaketh
Me, his dear child and heir. Languages: English

If Thy Beloved Son, O God
Author: Johann Heermann; Unknown Hymnal: The Lutheran Hymnal #375 (1941) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.8.7 Topics: Faith and Justification Lyrics: 1 If Thy beloved Son, O God,
Had not to earth descended
And in our mortal flesh and blood
Had not sin's power ended,
Then this poor, wretched soul of mine
In hell eternally would pine
Because of its transgression.
2 But now I find sweet peace and rest,
Despair no more reigns o'er me;
No more am I by sin opprest,
For Christ has borne sin for me.
Upon the cross for me He died
That, reconciled, I might abide
With Thee, my God, forever.
3 I trust in Him with all my heart;
Now all my sorrow ceases;
His words abiding peace impart,
His blood from guilt releases.
Free grace thro' Him I now obtain;
He washes me from ev'ry stain,
And pure I stand before Him.
4 All righteousness by works is vain;
The Law brings condemnation;
True righteousness by faith I gain;
Christ's work is my salvation.
His death, that perfect sacrifice,
Has paid the all-sufficient price;
In Him my hope is anchored.
5 My guilt, O Father, Thou hast laid
On Christ, Thy Son, my Savior.
Lord Jesus, Thou my debt hast paid
And gained for me God's favor.
O Holy Ghost, Thou Fount of grace,
The good in me to Thee I trace;
In faith do Thou preserve me.
Amen. Scripture: Galatians 2:16 Languages: English Tune Title: NUN FREUT EUCH
