Chapter 8774 wordsPublic domain

Jesus lives! no longer now 35 Jesus, Lord, thy servants see 63

Life's course must recommence to-day 49 Lo! God to heaven ascendeth! 39 Lo! my choice is now decided 125 Lo! now the victory's gain'd me 77 Look down, O Lord, from heaven behold 207 Loosed are the bands thy soul which chain'd 67

Mortals, who have God offended 21 Most high and holy Trinity! 45 My God! I call upon thy name 177 My restless heart, with anguish moaning 149 My Saviour! make me cleave to Thee 53 My soul, let this your thoughts employ 133

O Holy Ghost! thy heavenly dew 43 O! let him whose sorrow 181 O Lord! I long thy face to see 97 One thing's needful: then, Lord Jesus 137 O ye your Saviour's name who bear 121

Raise high the note of exultation 71

Seven times our blessed Saviour spoke 31 Soul, couldst thou, while on earth remaining 113 Steep and thorny is the way 109 Sunk is the sun's last beam of light 57

The last of days will come indeed 9 The mighty Saviour comes from heaven 13 The wondering sages trace from far 23 Thou who didst die for all and each 147

Wake! the welcome day appeareth 3 We come, our hearts with gladness glowing 199 What laws, my blessed Saviour, hast thou broken 25 When afflictions sore oppress you 129 Who are these, like stars appearing 89 Wilt Thou not, my Shepherd true 101 With tears o'er lost Jerusalem 159

Transcriber's Notes

--Silently corrected some typos (note that the German included archaic and modern spellings both.)

--Corrected the alphabetical order in the index of first lines, and restored one missing entry.

--Consistently included author and date on the same line, right justified (the date had often been on a separate line)

--Consistently included scripture references on the next line, right justified (some had been on the same line after a dash.)

--Re-ordered pages to present each hymn (German and English) as a unit (the original showed German and English interlaced on facing pages.)

--Note that there is no source information about anonymous hymns in the original book.
