O Little Flock, Fear Not the Foe

Author: J. M. Altenburg, 1584-1640; C. Winkworth, 1827-78 Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymnary #375 (1996) Meter: 8.8.6.8.8.6 Lyrics: 1 0 little flock, fear not the foe Who madly seeks your overthrow; Dread not his rage and pow'r. What though your courage sometimes faints, His seeming triumph o'er God's saints Lasts but a little hour. 2 Be of good cheer; your cause belongs To Him who can avenge your wrongs; Leave it to Him, our Lord. Though hidden yet from mortal eyes, His Gideon shall for you arise, Uphold you and His Word. 3 As true as God's own Word is true, Not earth nor hell with all their crew Against us shall prevail. A jest and byword are they grown; God is with us, we are His own; Our vict'ry cannot fail. 4 Amen, Lord Jesus, grant our prayer; Great Captain, now Thine arm make bare, Fight for us once again! So shall Thy saints and martyrs raise A mighty chorus to Thy praise, World without end. Amen. Topics: Cross and Comfort; Easter 4 Languages: English Tune Title: KOMMT HER ZU MIR

Lord, in Thy presence dread and sweet

Author: Anonymous Hymnal: The Hymnal #377 (1916) Meter: 8.8.6.8.8.6 Lyrics: Lord, in thy presence dread and sweet, Thine own dear Spirit we entreat His sevenfold gifts to shed On us who fall before thee now, Bearing the cross upon our brow On which our Master bled. Spirit of Wisdom! turn our eyes From earth and earthly vanities, To heavenly truth and love. Spirit of Understanding true! Our souls with holy light endue To seek the things above. Spirit of Counsel! be our Guide; Teach us by earthly struggles tried Our heavenly crown to win. Spirit of Fortitude! thy power Be with us in temptation's hour, To keep us free from sin. Spirit of Knowledge! lead our feet In thine own paths secure and sweet, By angel footsteps trod Where thou our Guardian true shalt be, Spirit of gentle Piety! To keep us close to God. But most of all, be ever near, Spirit of God's most holy Fear! In our hearts' inmost shrine: Our souls with loving reverence fill, To worship his most holy will, All righteous and divine. 344 So, dearest Lord, through peace or strife, Lead us to everlasting life, Where only rest may be. What matter where our lot is cast, If only it may end at last In Paradise with thee! Amen. Topics: Confirmation Languages: English Tune Title: ESCA VIATORUM

I Do Not Come Because My Soul

Author: Frank B. St. John Hymnal: The Lutheran Hymnal #379 (1941) Meter: 8.8.6.8.8.6 Lyrics: 1 I do not come because my soul Is free from sin and pure and whole And worthy of Thy grace; I do not speak to Thee because I’ve ever justly kept Thy laws And dare to meet Thy face. 2 I know that sin and guilt combine To reign o’er ev'ry tho't of mine And turn from good to ill; I know that, when I try to be Upright and just and true to Thee, I am a sinner still. 3 I know that often when I strive To keep a spark of love alive For Thee, the pow'rs within Leap up in unsubmissive might And oft benumb my sense of right And pull me back to sin. 4 I know that, though in doing good I spend my life, I never could Atone for all I’ve done; But though my sins are black as night, I dare to come before Thy sight Because I trust Thy Son. 5 In Him alone my trust I place, Come boldly to Thy throne of grace, And there commune with Thee. Salvation sure, O Lord, is mine, And, all unworthy, I am Thine, For Jesus died for me. Amen. Topics: Faith and Justification Scripture: Romans 7:19-24 Languages: English Tune Title: KOMMT HER ZU MIR

Author of faith, to Thee I cry

Author: C. Wesley Hymnal: The Lutheran Hymnary #390 (1913) Meter: 8.8.6.8.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Author of faith, to Thee I cry, To Thee, who would'st not have me die, But know the truth and live: Open mine eyes to see Thy face, Work in my heart the saving grace, The life eternal give. 2 I know the work is only Thine, The gift of faith is all divine; But if on Thee we all, Thou wilt the benefit bestow, And give us hearts to feel and know That Thou hast died for all. 3 Thou bid'st us knock and enter in, Come unto Thee and rest from sin, The blessing seek and find; Thou bid'st us ask Thy grace, and have; Thou can'st, Thou would'st, this moment save Both me and all mankind. 4 Be it according to Thy word! Now let me find my pardoning Lord, Let what I ask be given; The bar of unbelief remove, Open the door of faith and love, And take me into heaven.
