Our Father, Merciful and Good

Author: Olavus Petri; Augustus Nelson Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7.8.7.7 Appears in 5 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Our Father, merciful and good, Who dost to Thee invite us, O cleanse us in our Saviour's blood, And to Thyself unite us! Send unto us Thy holy Word, And let it guide us ever; Then in this world of darkness, Lord, Shall naught from Thee us sever: Grant us, O Lord, this favor! 2 We cry to Thee with one accord, 'Tis all that can avail us; We cannot hear nor keep Thy Word, If grace divine doth fail us. Behold our lot, we humbly pray, For our dear Saviour's merit. How Satan soweth tares alway, And send, O Lord, Thy Spirit, That we may life inherit. 3 O God and man, Christ Jesus blest! Our sorrow Thou didst carry. Our wants and cares Thou knowest best, For Thou with us didst tarry. O Jesus Christ, our Brother dear, To us and every nation Thy Spirit send, let Him draw near With truth and consolation, That we may see salvation. 4 Come, Holy Ghost, Thy grace impart, Tear Satan's snares asunder. The Word of God keep in our heart, That we its truth may ponder. Then, sanctified, for evermore, In Christ alone confiding, We'll sing His praise and Him adore, His precious Word us guiding To heavenly joys abiding. Amen.

O may Thy sanctifying love Surround us all with blessing; And may we all Thy favor prove In daily Thee confessing, And close to Thee abiding. 3 O soul of man, remember well The holy Name Thou bearest: Of everything that tongue can tell That Name is still the dearest.

Our Savior To The Jordan Came

Author: H. Brueckner; Martin Luther Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7.8.7.7 Appears in 1 hymnal Lyrics: 1 Our Savior to the Jordan came, The Father's will obeying, And there by John was He baptized, His work no more delaying. He there vouchsafed a cleansing breath To free from sin's possession, To rescue us from bitter death And wash away transgression, New life in us creating. 2 So hear ye all and ponder well What God Himself installeth, What He would have us all believe. What He a washing calleth. That water at the font be used, Is surely His good pleasure, But with it go His holy Word and Spirit without measure; He is the true Baptizer. 3 To show us this with ample proof, Both words and signs are given. At Jordan's brink was plainly heard The Father's voice from heaven: This is my well beloved Son, In whom my soul delighteth; O hear ye Him when ev'ryone He to Himself inviteth; Obey His will and teaching. 4 The Son of God is also here, In tender manhood bending, And we behold the Spirit, too, In dove-like form descending. Thus are we strengthened in our faith, Which nevermore should waver. That Father, Son and Holy Ghost Are present at the laver, To make our hearts their dwelling. 5 He who rejects this wondrous grace, The Scripture disbelieving, Shall have his sins abide with him, In hell his place receiving. His outward deeds avail him naught, His holiness must vanish; His inborn sin all works annuls, God such a one must banish: Himself he cannot rescue. 6 To His disciples Jesus saith: Go, teach ye every nation: Man, lost in sin, must needs repent, To flee from condemnation. Baptized and having faith in Me, He shall be saved forever; A new-born man shall he be called, Whom naught from Me can sever; My Kingdom He inherits. 7 Blind sense but water sees and asks: Pray, how can water save us? But faith the blood of Christ beholds That here in truth doth lave us. It sees this fountain colored red That here for us is flowing. To purge us from our inborn sin And, every grace bestowing, From all misdeeds to free us. Topics: The Means of Grace The Sarraments-Holy Baptism Used With Tune: BAPTIZEIN
