All faithful teachers well do know

Hymnal: Church Hymn Book #CXXI (1816) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Twelfth Sunday after Trinity Lyrics: 1 All faithful teachers well do know, Their cases shew them plain; In all what ever they can do, They are but feeble men. 2 It is the work of God alone, By which they are prepar'd; To such he makes his counsels known, Contained in his word. 3 By them the word of truth is taught: And all who will believe, From death unto that life is brought, Which Christ himself will give. 4 God's law is written in the mind, Not on the stone engrav'd; It makes the will to God resign'd, No more to sin enslav'd. 5 The letter of the law can kill, And sink the rebel low; But cannot change the stubborn will, Nor yet the mind renew. 6 The law like unto Moses' face, Does cast a fearful ray; But O! the glorious word of grace, Can drive our fears away. 7 O may such glory be reveal'd, And with influence shine; Till all our hearts be truly fill's With love and grace divine. Scripture: 2 Corinthians 3:4-9 Languages: English

Jesus shall reign where'er the sun

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran hymnal #164 (1908) Topics: Twelfth Sunday after Trinity Lyrics: 1 Jesus shall reign where'er the sun Does his successive journeys run; His kingdom stretch from shore to shore, Till moons shall wax and wane no more. 2 People and realms of every tongue Dwell on His love with grateful song; And with united hearts proclaim That grace and truth by Jesus name. 3 Blessings abound where'er He reigns: The prisoners leap to lose their chains, The weary find eternal rest, And all the sons of want are blest. 4 Where He displays His healing power, The sting of death is known no more In Him the sons of Adam boast More blessings than their father lost.

The Gospel shows the Father's grace

Author: Rev. Matthias Loy, D. D. Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran hymnal #183 (1908) Topics: Twelfth Sunday after Trinity Lyrics: 1 The Gospel shows the Father's grace, Who sent His Son to save our race: Proclaims how Jesus lived and died That we might thus be justified. 2 It sets the Lamb before our eyes, Who made th' atoning sacrifice, And calls the souls with guilt oppressed To come and find eternal rest. 3 It brings the Savior's righteousness Our souls to robe in royal dress; From all our guilt it brings release, And gives the troubled conscience peace. 4 It is the power of God to save From sin and Satan and the grave; It works the faith, which firmly clings To all the treasures which it brings. 5 It bears to all the tidings glad And bids their hearts no more be sad: The heavy laden soul it cheers And banishes their guilty fears. 6 May we in faith its tidings learn Nor thanklessly its blessings spurn; May we in faith its truth confess, And praise the Lord our righteousness.

Glorious things of Thee are spoken

Author: Rev. John Newton Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran hymnal #191 (1908) Topics: Twelfth Sunday after Trinity Lyrics: 1 Glorious things of Thee are spoken, Zion, City of our God. He, whose word cannot be broken, Formed thee for His own abode. On the Rock of Ages founded, What can shake thy sure repose? With salvation's walls surrounded, Thou may'st smile at all thy foes. 2 See, the streams of living waters, Springing from eternal love, Well supply thy sons and daughters And all fear of want remove. Who can faint while such a river Ever flows, their thirst t'assuage? Grace which, like the Lord, the Giver, Never fails from age to age. 3 Savior, since of Zion's city I, through grace, a member am, Let the world deride or pity, I will glory in Thy Name. Fading is the worldling's pleasure, All his boasted pomp and show: Solid joys and lasting treasure, None but Zion's children know. Languages: English Tune Title: HARWELL

Thou, who camest from above

Author: John Mason Neale Hymnal: Church Book #243 (1890) Topics: Twelfth Sunday after Trinity Lyrics: 1 Thou, who camest from above, Bringing light, and shedding love, Teaching Thine all-perfect way, Giving gifts to men to-day: 2 Thou who changest our lost state, Making us regenerate, Help us evermore to be Faithful subjects unto Thee. 3 Where Thou art not, none can do What is holy, just and true; Those whose hearts Thy wisdom leads Think good thoughts and do good deeds. 4 We have often grieved Thee sore; Never let us grieve Thee more. Thou the feeble canst protect, Thou the wandering canst direct. 5 We are dark--be Thou our Light; We are blind--be Thou our Sight. Be our Comfort in distress, Guide us through the wilderness. 6 To the blessed Three in One, To the Father, and the Son, And the Holy Ghost, arise Praise from all below the skies.

O Thou whose tender mercy hears

Hast Thou not said, return? 3 And shall my guilty fears prevail, To drive me from Thy feet? O let not this dear refuge fail, This only safe retreat. 4 Absent from Thee, my Guide, my Light, Without one cheering ray, Through dangers, fears, and gloomy night, How desolate my way! 5 O shine on this benighted heart, With beams of mercy shine; And let Thy healing voice impart A taste of joys divine. 6 Thy presence only, can bestow Delights which never cloy; Be this my solace here below, And my eternal joy!

Out of the depths I cry to Thee

Author: Martin Luther; Miss Winkworth Hymnal: Church Book #354 (1890) Topics: Twelfth Sunday after Trinity Lyrics: 1 Out of the depths I cry to Thee, Lord, hear me, I implore Thee! Bend down Thy gracious ear to me, Let my prayer come before Thee! If Thou remember each misdeed, If each should have its rightful meed, Who may abide Thy presence? 2 Our pardon is Thy gift; Thy Love And grace alone avail us. Our works could ne'er our guilt remove, The strictest life must fail us. That none may boast himself of aught, But own in fear Thy grace hath wrought What in him seemeth righteous. 3 And thus my hope is in the Lord, And not in mine own merit; I rest upon His faithful word To them of contrite spirit. That He is merciful and just,-- Here is my comfort and my trust, His help I wait with patience. 4 And though it tarry till the night, And round till morning waken, My heart shall ne'er mistrust Thy might, Nor count itself forsaken. Do thus, O ye of Israel's seed, Ye of the Spirit born indeed, Wait for your God's appearing. 5 Though great our sins and sore our woes, His grace much more aboundeth; His helping love no limit knows, Our utmost need it soundeth. Our kind and faithful Shepherd, He, Who shall at last set Israel free From all their sin and sorrow. Scripture: Psalm 130 Languages: English Tune Title: AUS TIEFER NOTH SCHREI ICH ZU DIR

And me, by many a sin opprest, Restore, and keep me whole! 4 I know not how to praise Thy mercy and Thy love; But deign Thy servant to upraise, And I shall learn above.

What God does, ever well is done!

Author: Samuel Rodigast; Rev. Emanuel Cronenwett, D. D. Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran hymnal #408 (1908) Topics: Twelfth Sunday after Trinity Lyrics: 1 What God does, ever well is done! His will is just and holy; As He directs my sands to run, My spirit shall keep lowly. He is my God; Though sore the rod, His care doth e'er enfold me: Then may He guide and hold me. 2 What God does, ever well is done! In need He will not quit me. In rightful path He still leads me on; To Him then I submit me. I'll walk His ways, And trust His grace To lift what doth oppress me: It rests with Him to bless me. 3 What God does, ever well is done! He thinks but to befriend me; As Healer mine, and Wondrous One, He will not poison send me Instead of cure. God's heart is pure. Of doubt will I divest me, And on His goodness rest me. 4 What God does, ever well is done! And though the cup selected, Seem to my mind too bitter drawn, Yet will I not reject it. God loveth me! I yet shall see Sweet comfort for my grieving; So I keep on believing. 5 What God does, ever well is done! Of this shall none deprive me; And though on pathway rough and lone, Need, death, and mis'ry drive me, God's arms will bear Me with fond care, Till all my sorrow ceaseth; Then do He, as He pleaseth.
