Broad is the road that leads to death

Hymnal: Book of Worship (Rev. ed.) #292 (1870) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Self-Denial Lyrics: 1 Broad is the road that leads to death, And thousands walk together there; But wisdom shows a narrower path, With here and there a traveller. 2 "Deny thyself, and take thy cross," Is the Redeemer’s great command; Nature must count her gold but dross, If she would gain this heavenly land. 3 The fearful soul that tires and faints, And walks the ways of God no more, Is but esteem'd almost a saint, And makes his own destruction sure. 4 Lord, let not all my hopes be vain; Create my heart entirely new; Which hypocrites could ne’er attain, And unbelievers never knew.

Min Sjæl, hvo vilde være

Hymnal: Psalmebog, udgiven af Synoden for den norske evangelisk-lutherske Kirke i Amerika (2nd ed.) #300 (1890) Topics: Self-Denial Lyrics: 1 Min Sjæl, vo vilde være Begjærlig efter det, man ved, Dig ikkun kan besnære Og hindre fra din Salighed! I Verdens Ære prange, Som kan saa snart forgaa, Forbandet tusind' Gange Den Ære kaldes maa, Som styrter ned i Pine Og Skjændsel Sjæl og Krop; Vil du til Ære trine, Saa søg til Himeln op! 2 Hvad kan os Vellyst nytte, Der er saa slet og hastig endt? Hvad kan os Rigdeom skytte, Naar Døden har sin Bue spændt? Min Jesu,Æres Sæde Har uforgjæng'ligt Guld, Af Hjertens Fryd og Glæde En ganske Himmel fuld, Mod hvilket Verdens Rige Er kun som Skum paa Vand. Kom, Hjerte, lad os stige Til Himlens Frydeland! 3 Hvad skal vi da ei smage For Liflighed i Sjæl og Krop, Naar disse gode Dage I Evighed ei høre op! For Jesu Stol at træde I Himlens blanke Slot, I Jesu sig at glæde Er evig sødt og godt, I Jesu sig at fryde I evig Ærestand Har mere at betyde, End Nogen tænke kan. 4 I Jesu har jeg Mængden Af Rigdom, Lystighed og Pragt, Det skal man se i Længen, Naar Verden er i Aske lagt; Lad Verden mig foragte, Det intet hindre kan, Jeg efter dig vil tragte, Du Himlens Ærestand! Lad Verden mig kun hade, Jeg bliver Jesum tro Og aldrig ham vil lade, Saa er min Sjæl i Ro. 5 Bort Verden, vær forbandet Med al din Lyst, dig høre til! Min Jesum, intet Andet, Jeg til min Rigdom have vil; Lad Verden mig kun træde I Spot og Skjændsel ned, Min Jesus mig kan glæde I Tid og Evighed, Og skulde jeg end smage Her Døden tusindfold, Det kan mig intet tage, Hist er jeg i Behold. 6 Det kan frit jeg bekjende Og glædes Nat og Dag dertil, Et Rige uden Ende Gud mig i Himlen unde vil; Lad Verden sig fornøie I det, som snart forgaar, Min Krone i det Høie alt færdig til mig staar, Jeg skal med Gud regjere, I evig Herlighed, Hvem vilde sørge mere, Imens jeg dette ved! 7 O Jesu, al min Glæde, Naar kommer dog den blide Stund, At jeg derop kan træde Og prise dig med Englemund? Naar skal jeg brudesmykkes, Og den Forandring ske, Naar skal det for mig lykkes, At jeg dig faar at se? O und mig snart den Ære I Frydens Paradis Min Seierskrands at bære Dig selv til evig Pris!
