HYMNAL and LITURGIES
of the
MORAVIAN CHURCH
Published by the Authority of the
Provincial Synods of the Moravian
Church in America
"The hymnal is a kind of response to the Bible, an echo and an extension thereof.
In the Bible one perceives how the Lord communicates with mankind ; and in the hymnal,
how mankind communicates with the Lord."
— Nicholas Ludwig von Zinzendorf

The 1969 hymnal stands firmly within the heritage of the Unitas Fratrum,
which published in Prague in 1501 what is considered to be the first Protestant
hymnal. This new hymnal is, therefore, the most recent American phase in the
ongoing renewal of the unique heritage of hymnody and worship reflected
throughout the long history of the worldwide Moravian Church.
In comparison with the hymnal of 1923, the number of hymns has been
reduced, many having been eliminated because they were not being used. The
new hymnals of the British, German, and Czechoslovakian provinces of the
Unity have yielded a number of selections. Sustained efforts likewise have been
made to move within the mainstream of American Christianity by following
the trends in new hymnals of leading denominations. Careful consideration has
been given to contemporary hymn-writers and composers.
All decisions on music have been governed by a three-fold goal — to enrich
the main body of traditional Moravian tunes, to increase the number of standard
tunes of the Christian Church, and to provide a variety of tunes from the major
periods of hymn-tune writing through the centuries. The association of certain
tunes with particular hymns has been respected, except for providing a greater
variety of tune usage or giving more effective expression to the text.
Of the almost four hundred tunes, one-third have been long associated
with Moravian worship. Most of the chorales remain in the traditional style,
established by Christian Gregor in his Choralbuch der Evangelischen Bruederge-
meine of 1784. The twelve originating in Herrnhut can be identified in the
index. For the first time in an American Moravian Hymnal, some chorales
appear in their original melodic or rhythmic versions as used in other denomi-
nations. Other new material includes eighteen chorales: nine re-discovered tunes
by Moravian composers, and from the Bohemian Brethren (Unitas Fratrum)
nine tunes in modal harmonizations in keeping with their times.
The main body of general tunes of the 1923 Hymnal has been strengthened
by the addition of forty-five tunes, from various periods of hymn-tune writing,
which are in current use in other Protestant denominations. Words are printed
between the staves of the music, in line with the prevailing practice in American
hymnals. Historical data relating to each hymn-tune have been carefully verified.
Hymns have always had a way of leaping established barriers and promoting
Christian unity. Through pre-reformation hymns lost in Catholic worship and
more recently restored, Protestants have enriched contemporary Roman Catholic
worship. Similarly the great hymns of the Mother Church of Western Chris-

Lord, make us one in spirit with all Thy children as we profess our faith,
saying:
/ believe in God the Father Almighty, Maker of heaven and earth,
and in Jesus Christ, His only Son, our Lord, Who was conceived by the
Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, ivas
crucified, dead and buried. He went to the place of departed spirits.
The third day He rose again from the dead. He ascended into heaven
and sitteth at the right hand of God, the Father Almighty. From thence
He shall come to judge the quick and the dead. 1 believe in the Holy
Spirit; the holy Christian Church; the communion of saints; the for-
giveness of sins; the resurrection of the body; and the life everlasting.
Amen.

From famine and disease, from calamity by lire or flood, storm or earth-

By Thy holy incarnation and birth, by Thy baptism, fasting, and temptation,

By Thine agony and bloody sweat, by Thy cross and passion, by Thine atoning
death, by Thy triumphant resurrection and ascension, by Thy sending the
Holy Spirit, by Thy prevailing intercession, by the holy sacraments, by Thy
coming again to Thy Church on earth, or our being called home to Thee,
Bless and comfort us, gracious Lord and God.

The Litany
Grant love and unity to all our congregations ; give to our bishops and
ministers soundness of doctrine and holiness of life, and preserve them therein ;
help all elders to rule well ; and may every 'steward of things spiritual or
temporal be faithful, not only in that which is much, but also in that which
is least. Grant that all of us may enjoy the powerful and sanctifying merits of
Thy holy humanity, and live before Thee in holiness and righteousness all
our days.
Hear us, gracious Lord and God.
Supply, O Lord, we pray Thee, all the needs of Thy people; bless the sweat
of the brow and faithfulness in our daily tasks ; let none entangle himself with
the affairs of this life, but may all our labor of body and mind be hallowed
unto Thee ; help us to use Thy gifts aright, and never to forget that it is more
blessed to give than to receive; sanctify our homes with Thy presence; enable
us to bring up our children to love and serve Thee.
Hear us, gracious Lord and God.
O Lord, the hope of Israel, bring Thine ancient covenant people to own
Thee as the Christ, and endow Islam with the knowledge of Thy truth.
Thou light and desire of all nations, prosper the witness of Thy servants till
every tongue confess Thee as Lord.
Hear us, gracious Lord and God.
Watch graciously over all governments ; let Thy will be known and done
among the nations ; establish them in truth and righteousness, and give them
thoughts of peace. Deliver us from the sins which give rise to war and conflict,
and strengthen within our hearts the will to establish righteousness and justice
in the earth. Bless with Thy light and wisdom those who bear office in our
land, and grant us to lead under them a quiet and peaceable life, in all godliness
and honesty.
Hear us, gracious Lord and God.
O Thou preserver of men, we commend to Thy care and keeping those of our
congregation who are absent from us today ; watch over Thy people who travel
by land, sea, or air; send help to all who are in danger, tribulation, or distress;
strengthen and uphold those who suffer persecution for the sake of the gospel ;
defend and provide for all who are desolate and afflicted ; be the support of the
aged ; lay Thy hand in blessing and healing upon the sick, and in the midst of
suffering let them feel that Thou lovest them ; enable the dying to put their trust
in Thee, as the atoning sacrifice for the sins of the whole world.

But who shall ascend into the hill of the Lord.'' Or who shall stand

// we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is
not in us.
If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and
to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. If any man sin, we have an advocate
with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous; and He is the atoning sacrifice
for our sins:
And not for ours only, but also for the sins of the ivhole world.
Drawing near in full assurance of faith, let us confess our sins, and present
our supplication before the Lord our God.

Let us pray:

Thou high and lofty One, Who inhabitest eternity, Whose Name is holy,
Who dwellest in the high and holy place, but with him also who is of a con-
trite and humble spirit, give us grace to bring Thee the sacrifice of a broken
and contrite heart, which Thou, O God, dost not despise.
Hear us, gracious Lord and God.
Lord God, merciful and gracious, long suffering, and abundant in goodness
and truth, keeping mercy for thousands, forgiving iniquity and transgression
and sin, and Who will by no means forgive the unrepentant ; incline Thine
ear and hear ; for we do not offer our supplications before Thee relying on our
own goodness, but on Thy great compassion.
Hear us, gracious Lord and God.
Create in us a clean heart, O God ; and renew a right spirit within us. Re-
store unto us the joy of Thy salvation ; and uphold us with Thy free spirit.
Have mercy upon us, according to Thy loving-kindness ; according to the multi-
tude of Thy tender mercies, blot out our transgressions, through Jesus Christ,
our Saviour.
Lord, have mercy upon us. Amen.
Thus saith the Lord: I will be merciful to your iniquities, and your sins will
I remember no more. Peace be unto you.

Our tongues shall praise Thee, and our lips shall declare Thy glory.
Thou dost shed abroad the love of God in the hearts of all believers, and

By our own reason and strength we cannot believe in Jesus Christ, our

H All shall stand for the Xiecne Creed.
/ believe in one God, the Father Almighty, Maker of heaven and earth,
and of all things visible and invisible:
And in one Lord Jesus Christ, the only begotten Son of God, begotten of
His Father before all worlds, God of God, Light of Light, very God of very
God, begotten, not made, being of one substance with the Father, by Whom
all things were made: Who, for us men, and for our salvation, came down
from heaven, and was incarnate by the Holy Spirit of the Virgin Mary, and
was made man, and was crucified also for us under Pontius Pilate. He suf-
fered and was buried, and the third day He rose again, according to the
Scriptures: and ascended into heaven, and sitteth on the right hand of the
Father. And He shall come again with glory to judge both the quick and
the dead: Whose kingdom shall have no end.
And I believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord and Giver of life, Who pro-
ceedeth from the Father, Who with the Father and the Son together is wor-
shiped and glorified, Who spoke by the prophets. And I believe in one holy
Christian and Apostolic Church. I ackuoivledge one baptism for the remis-
sion of sins, and I look for the resurrection of the dead, and the life of the
nor Id to come. Amen.

Blessed are those whose way is blameless, who walk in the law of the Lord.
Blessed are those who keep His testimonies, who seek Him with their whole
heart.
O that my ways may be steadfast in keeping Thy statutes. Then I shall
not be put to shame, having my eyes fixed on all Thy commandments.
The statutes of the Lord are right, rejoicing the heart;
The commandment of the Lord is pure, enlightening the eyes.
The fear of the Lord is clean, enduring forever ;
The judgments of the Lord are true and righteous altogether.
More to be desired are they than gold, yea, than much fine gold ; sweeter
also than honey and the honey-comb. Moreover, by them is Thy servant warned ;
and in keeping them there is great reward.
Lead me in the path of Thy commandments, for therein do I delight.
Make Thy face to shine upon me, and teach me Thy statutes.
God spoke these words, saying:
Thou shalt have no other gods before Me.
Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image.
Thou shalt not take the Name of the Lord thy God in vain.
Remember the sabbath day to keep it holy.
Honor thy father and thy mother.
Thou shalt not kill.
Thou shalt not commit adultery.
Thou shalt not steal.
Thou shalt not bear false ivitness against thy neighbor.
Thou shalt not covet anything that is thy neighbor's.
Our Lord Jesus Christ said: A new commandment I give unto you, that you
love one another; even as I have loved you, that you also love one another.
By this shall all men know that you are My disciples, if you have love for one
another. And again He said: If you love Me, you will keep My commandments.
/ will meditate on Thy precepts and have respect unto Thy ways. I will
delight in Thy statutes: I will not forget Thy Word.

When Thou tookest upon Thee to deliver man, Thou didst humble Thyself
to be born of a Virgin.
When Thou hadst overcome the sharpness of death, Thou didst open the
kingdom of heaven to all believers.
Thou sittest at the right hand of God, in the glory of the Father.
We believe that Thou shalt come to be our Judge.
We therefore pray Thee, help Thy servants, whom Thou hast redeemed with
Thy precious blood ;
Make them to be numbered with Thy saints, in glory everlasting.

I believe in the name of the only-begotten Son of God, by Whom are all
things, and we through Him. I believe that He was made flesh, and dwelt
among us ; and took on Him the form of a servant ; by the overshadowing of
the Holy Spirit was conceived of the Virgin Mary; as the children are partakers
of flesh and blood, He also Himself likewise took part of the same; was born
of a woman; and being found in fashion as a man, was tempted in all points
like as we are, yet without sin.
This I verily believe.
He is the Lord, the Messenger of the covenant, in Whom we delight. He
spoke that which He knew, and testified to that which He had seen.
As many as received Him, to them He gave power to become the children
of God.
Let not your heart be troubled: believe in God, believe also in Me. In
My Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told
you; for I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go to prepare a place for

you, I will come again, and receive you unto Myself; that where I am, there
you may be also.
Even so come, Lord Jesus.
The Lord will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the
archangel, and with the trump of God, to judge both the quick and the dead.
For the hour is coming, in which all who are in the graves shall hear His
voice, and shall come forth to judgment. Then shall He sit upon the throne
of His glory, and all the holy angels with Him, and before Him shall be
gathered all nations.
But who may abide the day of His coming? And who shall stand when
He appears?

Behold, the Lord God will come with a strong hand, and His arm shall
rule for Him; behold, His reward is with Him, and His ivork before Him.
Since by man came death, by man came also the resurrection of the dead.
For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive. Then comes
the end, when He shall have delivered up the kingdom to God, even the
Father ; when He shall have put down all rule, and all authority, and power.
For He must reign, till He has put all enemies under His feet. And when all
things are subjected unto Him, then shall God be all in all.

Glory be to Thee, Lord God our Father, Who hast chosen us in Jesus Christ,
our Lord, before the foundation of the world.
Behold, what manner of love, O Father, Thou hast bestowed upon us,
that we should be called the sons of God!
Thou hast blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ.
Thou hast delivered us from the poiver of darkness, and hast translated
us into the kingdom of Thy dear Son.
O Thou Who art the one God and Father of all, Who hast redeemed us
through Jesus Christ, Thy Son, we beseech Thee, quicken us who have been
dead in trespasses and sins.
For the sake of that great love whereivith Thou hast loved us, make us
to live in Christ, our Lord.
O Immanuel, Thou Saviour of the world,
Manifest Thyself to us.
By Thy holy incarnation, by Thy human birth, by Thy pure and blameless
childhood, by Thine obedience and diligence, by Thy humility, meekness, and
patience, by Thine extreme poverty, by Thy griefs and sorrows, by Thy prayers
and tears, by Thy having been despised and rejected, by Thy cross and passion,
by Thy death and burial, by Thy triumphant resurrection and ascension,
Help us and save us.
God, who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, has shined in
our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face
of Jesus Christ.
May we all, beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, be changed
into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord.
If All shall stand.

Behold, darkness shall cover the earth, and gross darkness the people; but

This is a faithful saying and worthy of full acceptance: that Christ Jesus
came into the world to save sinners.
God has highly exalted Him, and given Him a Name which is above every
name, that at the Name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven, on earth,
and under the earth, and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to
the glory of God the Father.
Arise, shine: for thy light is come, and the glory of the Lord is risen

Easter Morning
If All shall kneel. The minister shall offer prayer, after which all shall stand.
I believe in the One only God, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, Who created
all things by Jesus Christ, and was in Christ, reconciling the world unto
Himself. I believe in God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, Who has
chosen us in Him before the foundation of the world; Who has delivered
us from the power of darkness, and has translated us into the kingdom of
His dear Son; Who has blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly
places in Christ; Who has made us worthy to share in the inheritance of the
saints in light, having predestined us unto the adoption of children by Jesus
Christ to Himself, according to the good pleasure of His will, to the praise of
the glory of His grace, wherein He has made us accepted in the Beloved.
This I verily believe.
We thank Thee, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because Thou hast
hid these things from the wise and prudent, and hast revealed them unto
babes. Even so, Father, for so it seemed good in Thy sight. Father, glorify
Thy Name.
Our Father, Who art in heaven, hallowed be Thy Name. Thy kingdom
come. Thy will be done on earth, as it is in heaven. Give ns this day our
daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who tres-
pass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from
evil: for Thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, forever
and ever. Amen.
If All shall lie seated.
I believe in the name of the only-begotten Son of God, by Whom are all
things, and we through Him. I believe that He was made flesh, and dwelt
among us; and took on Himself the form of a servant; by the overshadowing
of the Holy Spirit was conceived of the Virgin Mary; as the children are
partakers of flesh and blood, He also Himself took part of the same; was
born of a woman ; and being found in fashion as a man, was tempted in all
points like as we arc, yet without sin. For He is the Lord, the Messenger of
the covenant, in Whom we delight. The Lord and His Spirit have sent Him
to proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord. He spoke that which He knew,
and testified to that which He had seen. As many as received Him. to them He-
gave power to become the children of God. Behold the Lamb of God, Who
takes away the sin of the world : suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified,
dead and buried; went also by the Spirit and preached unto the spirits in
prison; the third day rose again from the dead, and with Him many bodies
of the saints who slept; ascended into heaven, and sits on the throne of the
Father; whence He will come, in like manner as He was seen going into heaven.

The Lord will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the
archangel, and with the trump of God, to judge both the living and the dead.
This is my Lord, Who redeemed me, a lost and undone human creature, pur-
chased and gained me from sin, from death, and from the power of the devil ;
not with gold or silver, but with His holy, precious blood, and with His
innocent suffering and dying; to the end that I should be His own, and in His
kingdom live under Him and serve Him in eternal righteousness, innocence,
and happiness ; even as He, being risen from the dead, lives and reigns, world
without end.
This I verily believe.
56
Easter Morning
0 Lord Jesus Christ, Who didst come at the first in great humility as our
Redeemer, grant, we pray Thee, that when Thou shalt come again in glorious
majesty to judge the living and the dead, we may be accounted worthy to
stand before Thee.
Hear us, gracious Lord and God.
1 believe in the Holy Spirit, Who proceeds from the Father, and Whom
our Lord Jesus Christ sent, after He went away, that He should abide with
us forever ; that He should comfort us, as a mother comforts her children ;
that He should help our infirmities, and make intercession for us with groan-
ings which cannot be uttered; that He should bear witness with our spirit,
that we are the children of God, and teach us to cry, Abba, Father; that He
should shed abroad in our hearts the love of God, and make our bodies His
holy temple; and that He should work in us the will of God, dividing His
gifts to each one even as He will.
I believe that by my own reason and strength I cannot believe in Jesus
Christ my Lord, or come to Him; but that the Holy Spirit calls me by the
gospel, enlightens me with His gifts, sanctifies and preserves me in the true
faith ; even as He calls, gathers, enlightens, and sanctifies the whole Church
on earth, which He keeps by Jesus Christ in the only true faith ; in which
Christian Church, God forgives me and every believer all sin daily and
abundantly.
This I verily believe.
O Spirit of grace, direct our hearts into the love of God, and into patient
waiting for Christ. Establish Thou us in the faith, that we may abound therein
with thanksgiving, and seal our hearts unto the day of redemption.
To Thee be glory, with the Father, and with the Sou. Amen.
<i All shall stand.
I believe that by holy baptism I am embodied a member of the Church of
Christ, which He has loved, and for which He gave Himself, that He might
sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word.
In this communion of saints my faith is placed upon my Lord and Saviour
Jesus Christ, Who died for me, and shed His blood on the cross for the
remission of sins, and Who has granted unto me His body and blood in the
Lord's Supper, as a pledge of grace; as the Scripture says, Our Lord Jesus
Christ, the same night in which He was betrayed, took bread, and, when He
had given thanks, He broke it, and gave it to His disciples, and said: Take,
eat; this is My body which is given for you. This do in remembrance of Me.
57
Easter Morning
After the same manner also, our Lord Jesus Christ took the cup, when He had
supped, gave thanks, and gave it to them, saying, Drink of it, all of you;
this is My blood, the blood of the New Covenant, which is shed for you and
for many, for the remission of sins. This do, as often as you drink it, in
remembrance of Me.
This I verily believe.

brought again from the dead our Lord Jesus, that great Shepherd of the sheep,
through the blood of the everlasting covenant, shall also quicken these our
mortal bodies, if the Spirit of God has dwelt in them.
We poor sinners pray: hear us, gracious Lord and God.
Keep us in everlasting fellowship with those of our brethren and sisters
who, since last Easter Day, have entered into the joy of their Lord, and with
the whole Church Triumphant, and let us rest together in Thy presence from
our labors.
Hear us, gracious Lord and God.

He was delivered for our offenses:
And was raised again for our justification.
Who shall bring any charge against God's elect?
7/ is God Who justifies.
Who shall separate us from the love of God ? Shall tribulation, or distress,
or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword ?
Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors, through Him
Who loved us.
For I am persuaded that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities,
nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come.
Nor height, nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able
to separate us from the love of God, in Christ Jesus, our Lord.

Easter
If you then be risen with Christ, seek the things that are above, where
Christ is, seated at the right hand of God. Set your minds on things that are
above, not on things that are on the earth. For you have died, and your life
is hid with Christ in God.
When Christ Who is our life appears, then we also will appear with
Him in glory.
None of us lives to himself, and none of us dies to himself. If we live,
we live to the Lord, and if we die, we die to the Lord.
Whether we live or whether we die, ive are the Lord's. For to this end
Christ died, rose, and lives again, that He might be Lord both of the dead
and of the living.
We would not have you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning those who are
asleep, that you may not grieve, as others do who have no hope.
For since ive believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so, through
Jesus, God will bring with Him those who have fallen asleep.
As we have borne the likeness of him who came from the dust, so shall we
bear the likeness of Him Who came from heaven.
For this perishable body of ours must put on an imperishable form, and
this dying body, a deathless form.
What is sown as perishable,
Is raised imperishable;
What is sown in dishonor,
Is raised in glory;
What is sown in weakness,
Is raised in power;
What is sown a physical body,
Is raised a spiritual body.
Then shall come to pass the saying that is written: Death is swallowed up
in victory.
Thanks be to God, Who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus
Christ.

Seeing that we have a great High Priest, Who has passed into the heavens,

in every respect was tempted as we are, yet without sin.
We will with confidence draw near to the throne of grace, that we may
receive mercy and find grace to help us in time of need.
Thus saith the Lord: I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end.
To him who is athirst I will give of the water of life freely. He that over-
cometh shall inherit all things ; and I will be his God, and he shall be My son.
Therefore with, angels and archangels, and with all the company of
heaven, we laud and magnify Thy glorious Name, evermore praising Thee,

full of Thy glory: glory be to Thee, O Lord Most High. Amen.

Christ said: It is expedient for you that I go away: for if I go not away,
the Comforter will not come unto you: but if I depart, I will send Him unto
you.
And now has the Father sent the Comforter, even the Spirit of truth, to
convince the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment. You are
not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if it be that the Spirit of God dwell in you.

If Christ is in us, though the body is dead because of sin, the spirit is alive

Confirm us in the true faith.
O Thou eternal High Priest! Who for us didst enter within the veil, be
Thou our Advocate at the right hand of the Father, so that neither death nor
life, things present nor things to come, nor anything else in all creation, may
be able to separate us from the love of God.
O Christ, Thou eternal King of glory! Unto Whom is given all power in
heaven and on earth, lead Thy Church out of conflict unto victory, when Thou
shalt come again in the clouds of heaven to judge the living and the dead.
Hear us. gracious Lord and God.

O Thou Holy Spirit! Who proceedest from the Father, and Whom our
Lord Jesus Christ hath sent unto us, Thou Who art true God, do Thou testify
of Christ unto our hearts. Teach us to call Jesus our Lord ; and help us to
cry, Abba, Our Father, that we may have access to the throne of grace with
all confidence and joy.
Bear witness with our spirits that we are the children of God, and joint-
heirs with Christ.
Enlighten us with Thy light, and lead us into all truth, that we may know
the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge.
Constrain us by faith and love to be obedient unto Thee, that we may not
grieve Thee; for by Thee we are sealed to the day of redemption.
In our weakness, when we know not how to pray as we ought, make inter-
cession for us.
Endow us with strength and gifts in Christ Jesus ; and change us into His
image from glory to glory ; that we may be His property, and abound unto the
praise of His grace.
Hear us, gracious Lord and God!

Behold, a great multitude, which no man can number, out of every nation
and of all tribes, and peoples, and tongues, standing before the throne and
before the Lamb, arrayed in white robes, and palms in their hands,
And they cry with a great voice, saying: Salvation unto our God, Who
sitteth on the throne, and unto the Lamb.
These are they of whom the world was not worthy. They wandered in
deserts and mountains and caves, and the holes of the earth. They were stoned,
they were sawn asunder, were tempted, were slain with the sword, they were
burned at the stake. They were destitute, afflicted, ill-treated.
These are those who came out of great tribulation, and they washed their
robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.
Therefore they are before the throne of God, and they serve Him day
and night in His temple.
They shall hunger no more, neither thirst any more ; the sun shall not strike
them, nor any scorching heat ; for the Lamb in the midst of the throne will be
their Shepherd., and He will guide them unto springs of living water.
And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes.

Almighty God, our Heavenly Father, we offer unto Thee our hearty thanks
and praise, for the holy lives of all Thy servants, the prophets, apostles, and
martyrs, who have shone forth as lights in the world, and sacrificed their lives
in testimony of their faith. We thank Thee for the blessed communion of all
Thy saints in glory.
We remember before Thee all who have departed this life in the true faith,
and especially those most dear to us. We rejoice in our present fellowship with
them, our abiding hope, and the promise of future joy.
Let the great cloud of witnesses, the innumerable company of those who
have gone before and entered into rest, be to us an example of godly life.
May we, with patience, run the race that is set before us, looking unto Jesus,
the Author and Finisher of our faith ; and obtain an entrance into the everlasting
kingdom, and with the glorious assembly of the saints, worship and adore Thee,
through Jesus Christ, our Lord.
Amen!

For theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
Who shall separate us from the love of God ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or

Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him Who

Let us pray:
O gracious God, Who wouldst have all men to come to a knowledge of
Thyself as revealed in Christ Jesus, our Lord:
We remember before Thee, on this day, every educational enterprise estab-
lished for the instruction and care of children and youth, in this and other lands:
public and private schools, colleges, universities, and theological seminaries.
Enlighten and inspire, by Thy Holy Spirit, all who serve in them to receive
instruction in wise dealing, righteousness, justice, and equity.
Command Thy blessing upon the schools and colleges of our Church. May
all who teach therein themselves be taught by Thee. Give to our trustees and
administrators the wisdom and courage which so great a work demands. Should
Thy servants, in weakness of flesh and spirit, be tempted to doubt and dis-
couragement, do Thou comfort and strengthen them.
We commend to Thee the whole educational work of the Church in our
congregations at home and abroad. Assist parents to bring up their children
in the nurture and admonition of the Lord by prayer, instruction, and example.
Touch, by Thy Spirit, the minds and lives of pastors and teachers, so that they

may lead our children unto that knowledge which is able to make them wise
unto salvation.
Hear us, and help us, ive beseech Thee.
We commend unto Thee the children and youth of our homes and schools.
Arouse them to diligence in the morning of life. Fill them with the spirit of
honor and reverence. Preserve them in honesty and integrity. Keep them in
purity and health.
Do Thou guide them:
In the search of the Scriptures,
In the study of Thy wondrous works,
In the pursuit of truth,
In all their thoughts, words, and deeds.
And may the example of their Saviour:
In His innocent childhood and youth,
In His willing obedience,
In His unselfish service to His fellowmen,
In His perfect pattern in life and death,
be their constant inspiration.
Hear us, gracious Lord and God.
Our Father, Who art in heaven, hallowed be Thy Name. Thy kingdom
come. Thy will be done on earth, as it is in heaven. Give us this day our
daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as ive forgive those who tres-
pass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil:
for Thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, forever and ever.

The Lord said in His heart: While the earth remains, seedtime and harvest,
and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night, shall not cease.
Has He said, and shall He not do it? Or has He spoken, and shall He
not make it good?
He prepares rain for the earth, and makes it soft with showers, and blesses
the springing thereof.
He causes the grass to grow for the cattle, and herbs for the service of
man, that he may bring forth food out of the earth.
Let us fear the Lord our God, Who gives us the former and latter rain in
its season, and reserves unto us the appointed weeks of harvest.
O Lord, how manifold are Thy works! In wisdom hast Thou made them

Bless the Lord, O my soul ; and all that is within me, bless His holy Name.
Bless the Lord, O my soul, and forget not all His benefits.
He redeems your life from destruction, and crowns you with loving-kindness
and tender mercies ;
He has not dealt with us according to our sins, nor rewarded us according
to our iniquities.
As the heaven is high above the earth, so great is His mercy toward those
who fear Him.
As far as the east is from the west, so far has He removed our trans-
gressions from us.
The mercy of the Lord is from everlasting to everlasting upon those who
fear Him, and His righteousness unto children's children,
To such as keep His covenant, and to those who remember His com-

dust on the scales. Let the living know that the Most High rules in the king-
dom of men, and gives it to whomsoever He will. The Lord brings the counsel
of the nations to naught ; He makes the thoughts of the people to be of no
effect. The counsel of the Lord stands fast forever, the thought of His heart
to all generations. Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord, the people

whom He has chosen for His own inheritance. Yea, happy are the people
whose God is the Lord.
Praise ye the Lord.
Not unto us, O Lord, not unto us, but unto Thy Name give glory,
For Thy loving-kindness, and for Thy truth 's sake.

Almighty God, Thou Who art ruler of nations and to Whose gracious
providence we owe the manifold blessings of our land,
We worship Thee with grateful hearts.
We confess that, in many things, we have departed from Thy precepts and
from Thy judgments, and it is of Thy mercies that we are not consumed. To
Thee belong mercies and forgiveness, though we have rebelled against Thee ;
neither have we obeyed Thy voice, O Lord our God, to walk in Thy laws,
which Thou hast set before us.
Lord, have mercy upon us, and pardon our transgressions.
Bless, O Lord, we pray Thee, all who are in places of authority. Protect
them from violence, and fill the hearts of the people with reverence and love
for those who, as the ministers of God, have been set for the punishment of
evil-doers and the praise of those who do well. Raise up for us leaders who
shall perform Thy pleasure, and, in patience and fortitude, shall stay them-
selves upon Thee, O God.
Save Thy people and bless Thine inheritance.

Make of this nation a chosen instrument for the promotion of peace, free-

a home of happiness for all who dwell within its borders; and may our
heritage of liberty be preserved unimpaired for the generations to come.
Hear us, gracious Lord and God.
Safeguard, we beseech Thee, Thy holy day of rest and the sacred institution
of the home; grant that all who are employed in the education of youth may
recognize that the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom ; and turn Thou
the hearts of all people unto Thee that they may seek eternal life through
Jesus Christ, our Redeemer.
Hear us, gracious Lord and God.
Grant unto those who are of the household of faith, wisdom, that, as citizens
of this nation, they may adorn the gospel in all their works. Enable them to
submit to every ordinance of man for Thy sake, ready for every good work,
abstaining from every form of evil and rendering unto all their dues.
Hear us, gracious Lord and God.
Grant unto the people of this and all other lands a love of peace and order,

From the end of the earth will I cry unto Thee, when my heart is over-

Lead me to the rock that is higher than I.
For Thou hast been a shelter for me, and a strong tower from the enemy.
Hear the word of the Lord: I am the Lord your God, Who teaches you to
profit, Who leads you in the way you should go. O that you had hearkened to
My commandments ! Then your peace would have been like a river, and your
righteousness like the waves of the sea. Stand by the roads and look and ask
for the old paths, where the good way is, and walk in it, and you shall find rest
for your souls. Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his
thoughts; let him return unto the Lord, and He will have mercy upon him; and

The mercy of the Lord is from everlasting to everlasting upon those who
fear Him, and His righteousness unto children's children,
To such as keep His covenant, and to those who remember His com-
mandments to do them.
It is written in the Gospel that our Lord Jesus said, Let the little children
come unto Me, and forbid them not, for of such is the kingdom of God.
Jesus also said, I am the door of the sheep; if anyone enters by Me, he will
be saved, and will go in and out and find pasture.
He will feed His flock like a Shepherd, He will gather the lambs in His
arms, He will carry them in His bosom.
Dearly beloved, baptism sets forth the saving work of Christ, whereby
through the power of the Holy Spirit we participate in the death and resur-
rection of our Lord, are washed from our sins, are raised into newness of
life, are embodied in the covenant of grace, and become a part of the fellow-

your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind,

THE SOLEMNIZATION OF MARRIAGE
If The persons to be married shall stand before the minister with their witnesses, the
man standing at the right hand of the woman. Then the minister shall say:
Dearly beloved, we are here assembled, in the presence of God and these
witnesses, to join together this man, , and this woman, ,
in holy marriage, which is blessed by our Lord Jesus Christ, governed by
God's commandments, and is to be held in honor among all men. Therefore
it is not to be entered into unadvisedly or lightly, but reverently, discreetly,
and in the fear of God.
In Holy Scripture we are taught: that marriage was instituted by God
Himself, and is therefore an holy estate; that, according to the ordinance of
God, a man and his wife shall be one flesh; that, under the New Covenant,
the married state has been sanctified to be an emblem of Christ and His Church;
that the husband, as the head of the wife, should love her, even as Christ also
loves the Church; and that the wife be subject to her own husband in the
Lord, as the Church is subject unto Christ; that, in consequence, Christians
thus united together, should love one another as one in the Lord, be faithful
one to the other, bear one another's infirmities and weaknesses, cherish one
another in joy and sorrow, pray for and encourage one another in all things,
and live together as heirs of the grace of life.
Into this holy estate these two persons come now to be joined. If any man
can show just cause why they may not lawfully be joined together, according
to the Word of God and the laws of this State, let him now speak, or else
forever hold his peace.
If The minister shall say to the man, addressing him by his Christian name:
, will you have to be your wife, to live together in the
holy bond of marriage? Will you love her, honor her, and care for her, under
all conditions and circumstances of life, and through the grace of God, approve
yourself a faithful Christian husband to her so long as you both shall live?
If this is your desire then answer and say, "I will."
If The man shall answer :
/ will.
If The minister shall say to the woman, addressing her by her Christian name :
, will you have to be your husband, to live together in
the holy bond of marriage? Will you love him, honor him, and care for him,
under all conditions and circumstances of life, and through the grace of God,
approve yourself a faithful Christian wife to him so long as you both shall
live? If this is your desire then answer and say, "I will."
If The woman shall answer:
116
The Solemnization of Marriage
/ will.
U The man, with his right hand, taking the woman by her right hand, shall say after
the minister :
/, , take you, , to be my wedded wife; and I do promise
and covenant to be your loving and faithful husband; for better, for worse;
for richer, for poorer; in sickness and in health; so long as ive both shall
live.
1f They shall release hands; and the woman, with her right hand, taking the man by
his right hand, shall likewise say after the minister:
/, take you, , to be my ivedded husband; and I do
promise and covenant to be your loving and faithful wife; for better, for
worse; for richer, for poorer; in sickness and in health; so long as tie both
shall live.
1} If a ring is used, the man shall here give the ring to the woman, which the minister
taking from her shall deliver again to the man and say :
Take this ring and place it upon the finger of this woman and say:
Tf The man shall repeat after the minister:
This ring I give to you, in token and pledge of our constant faith and
abiding love.
1f When a second ring is used it shall be passed in reverse order, and the woman
shall say the same words after the minister.
Let us pray :
Most merciful and gracious God, of Whom the whole family in heaven and
earth is named, we thank Thee for the love with which Thou dost bind kindred
souls together, and especially for the institution of marriage, the tenderness
of its ties, the honor of its estate, and the sacredness of its obligations. Look
with favor upon these, Thy servants ; sanctify and bless their union ; grant
them grace to fulfill, with pure and steadfast affection, the vow and covenant
made between them. Guide them together, we pray, in the way of righteous-
ness and peace, that, loving and serving Thee, with one heart and mind, all
the days of their life, they may be abundantly enriched by Thy grace. Vouch-
safe unto them the guidance of Thy Holy Spirit, and teach them to do that
which is well-pleasing in Thy sight, through Jesus Christ, our Lord. Amen.
If The minister shall join their right hands and say :
In the Name of God the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, I now join
you together to live within the bonds of holy marriage, as husband and wife.
What therefore God has joined together, let not man put asunder. Receive
the blessing of the Lord.
U The man and the woman shall kneel.
The Lord bless you, and keep you ;
The Lord make His face shine upon you, and be gracious unto you ;
The Lord lift up His countenance upon you. and give you peace ;
In the Name of Jesus. Amen.
117
THE BURIAL OF THE DEAD
1 All shall stand.
O Lord our God, in Whom we live, and move, and have our being,
Have mercy upon us.
O Lord our God, Who dost not afflict willingly, nor grieve the children of
men,
Leave Thy peace with us.
O Lord our God, Who hast brought life and immortality to light through
Jesus Christ our Saviour,
Bless and comfort us, we humbly pray.
Eternal Father, accept us as Thy children in Thy beloved Son, Jesus Christ,
Who came forth from Thee, and came into the world, was made flesh, and
dwelt among us, took on Him the form of a servant, and hath redeemed us
lost and undone human creatures from all sin and from death, with His holy
and precious blood, and with His innocent suffering and dying; to the end
that we should be His own, and in His kingdom live under Him and serve
Him in eternal righteousness, innocence, and happiness ; forasmuch as He, being
risen from the dead, liveth and reigneth, world without end.
Amen.
It is appointed unto men once to die, and after this comes judgment. For
we must all be made manifest before the judgment-seat of Christ, that each
one may receive the things done in the body, according to what he has done,
whether it be good or bad.
Our Lord has said: He that hears My word, and believes Him Who sent
Me, has eternal life, and comes not into judgment, but has passed out of death
into life.
Thou Saviour of the world, so teach us to number our days, that we may
apply our hearts unto wisdom.
None of us lives to himself, and no man dies to himself; for whether we
live, we live unto the Lord, and whether we die, we die unto the Lord ;
whether we live therefore or die, we are the Lord's ; for to this end Christ died,
rose, and lives again, that He might be Lord both of the dead and of the living.
O Lord, what wait we for? Our hope is in Thee.
As a father pities his children, so the Lord pities those who fear Him. For
He knows our frame, He remembers that we are dust.
118
The Burial of the Dead
The Lord raises those who are bowed down. He relieves the fatherless and
widow. And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes.
The mercy of the Lord is from everlasting to everlasting upon those who
fear Him, and His righteousness unto children's children.
Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit ;
As it ivas in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, ivorld without end.
Amen.
*h Then shall follow, at the discretion of the minister, a hymn, the reading of appro-
priate passages of Scripture, the memoir, and a short discourse.
fi The following service shall be used at the grave :
Lord, have mercy upon us;
Christ, have mercy upon us.
Lord, have mercy upon us;
Christ, hear us.
Lord God, Father, hear us as we pray:
Our Father, Who art in heaven, hallowed be Thy Name. Thy kingdom
come. Thy will be done on earth, as it is in heaven. Give us this day our
daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who tres-
pass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil:
for Thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, forever and ever.
Amen.
Lord God, Son, Thou Saviour of the world,
Be gracious unto us.
By Thy human birth, by Thy prayers and tears, by the grief and anguish
of Thy soul, by Thy cross and passion, by Thine atoning death, by Thy rest
in the grave, by Thy triumphant resurrection and ascension, by Thy sitting at
the right hand of God, by Thy divine presence, by Thy coming again to Thy
Church on earth, or our being called home to Thee,
Bless and comfort us, gracious Lord and God.
Lord God, Holy Spirit,
Abide with us forever. Amen.
I am the Resurrection and the Life, saith the Lord; he who believes in Me,
though he were dead, yet shall he live. And whosoever lives and believes in
Me shall never die. Therefore, blessed are the dead who die in the Lord from
henceforth ; yea, says the Spirit, that they may rest from their labors. O death.
119
The Burial of the Dead
where is thy sting ? O grave, where is thy victory ? The sting of death is sin ;
and the strength of sin is the law; but thanks be to God, Who gives us the
victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.

hope of the resurrection to eternal life of all believers, through
our Lord Jesus Christ, Who shall change the body of our humilia-
tion that it may be like unto His own glorious body, according
to the mighty working whereby He is able to subdue all things
unto Himself.)
Keep us in everlasting fellowship with the Church Triumphant, and let us
rest together in Thy presence from our labors.
Hear us, gracious Lord and God.
Glory be to Him Who is the Resurrection and the Life, Who quickens us
while in this dying state, and, after we have obtained the true life, does not
suffer us to die any more.
Glory be to Him in the Church which waits for Him, and in that which is
around Him, forever and ever.
Amen.

The Ordination of a Deacon
O Thou one God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, Who art above all
and through all and in us all, Who hast called us to be fellow citizens with
the saints in Thy household,
Unto Thee be glory in the Church by Christ Jesus, throughout all ages,
world without end.
O Thou Head of the Church Who givest some to be apostles; and some,
prophets ; and some, evangelists ; and some, pastors and teachers ; for the
perfecting of the saints; endow this our brother with Thy gifts in richest
measure, that he may labor all his life as an able minister of the new covenant
and a good steward of the manifold grace of God, that, being faithful unto
death, he may from Thee receive the crown of life.
Hear us, we beseech Thee, through the effectual working of Thy power.
O Thou divine Paraclete, Who helpest our infirmities, bestowest diversities
of gifts, and workest all in all, dividing unto every man severally as Thou
wilt, own what we now do and say, and endow our brother with power from
on high for the work of his ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ,
And dwell within us all, to establish us in the unity of the faith and
of the knowledge of the Son of God. Amen.

The Ordination of a Deacon
Brother (here shall he name him), do you believe in the truth of the Old
and New Testaments, as inspired by the Holy Spirit?
/ do.
Do you trust that you have been brought by divine grace to a saving knowl-
edge of the Lord Jesus Christ?
This is my humble trust.
Are you resolved to devote yourself to the work of the ministry, and to the
service of the Lord in the Moravian Church?
/ am.
Will you diligently apply yourself to the study of the Holy Scriptures and
to prayer, and declare all the counsel of God, that you may be a workman who
does not need to be ashamed ?
/ will, by the grace of God.
Is it your sincere purpose to live according to the precepts of God's Word,
and to teach nothing but the truths and doctrines contained therein, as received
and taught in the Moravian Church ?
It is.
Do you promise to conform to the principles, regulations, and requirements
of the Moravian Church, as they are laid down by her synods and constituted
authorities ?
This I promise to do, the Lord helping me.

The Consecration of a Presbyter
Father of lights, Thou Giver of every good and perfect gift, Who of Thine
own will hast begotten us with the word of truth that we should be a kind of
first fruits of Thy creatures, we bless Thee for the holy Christian Church, the
Body of Christ, the fullness of Him Who filleth all in all. We thank Thee
for the office of the ministry and for those faithful servants of Thine whom
Thou hast called to serve Thee in it.
Give to our bishops and ministers soundness of doctrine and holiness of
life, and preserve them therein.
O Christ, to Whom the Church is subject as her only Head, the First and the
Last, we give Thee thanks for all those who have approved themselves as
the miniscers of God by pureness, by knowledge, by long-suffering, by kindness,
by the Holy Spirit, by love unfeigned. Bless, we beseech Thee, our brother in this
hour as he repeats his vows and gives himself anew to prayer and to the ministry
of the Word. Establish Thou the work of his hands upon him, that he may
bring forth fruit and that his fruit may remain.
Sanctify him through Thy truth.
Thou Spirit of truth, by Whom holy men of God were moved to speak of
old, Whose manifestation is given to every man to profit withal, assist this
our brother to stir up the gift that is in him by the laying on of hands, granting
him ever to evidence in his ministry the spirit of power, of love, and of a
sound mind.
Grant him grace to guard that which has been committed unto him.

Thou high and lofty One, Who inhabitest eternity, Whose Name is holy,
Who dwellest in the high and holy place, but with him also who is of a
contrite and humble spirit, replenish us with Thy grace, that we may be perfect
in every good thing to do Thy will, working in us that which is well-pleasing
in Thy sight, through Jesus Christ,
To Whom be the glory forever and ever. Amen.
Thou Shepherd and Bishop of our souls, the one Mediator between God
and man, the Man Jesus Christ, the Lord of Glory, in this solemn hour we
lift our hearts in adoration to Thee. We praise Thee that Thou dost call Thy
followers to be co-workers with Thee in the ministry of reconciliation. We
give Thee hearty thanks for Thy grace and favor manifested to this our brother
in his holy calling unto this day. Bless him and sanctify him yet more, we pray
Thee, to the end that he may feed the Church of God which Thou hast pur-
chased with Thine own blood. Make of him in all things a true pastor of his
brethren to Thy glory, ever an example in life and work unto those who are
committed to his care, that, when the Chief Shepherd shall appear, he shall
receive a crown of glory that fadeth not away.
Glory be to Thee, O Christ.
Thou Holy Spirit, Whom God hath given as the earnest of their inheritance
to them that obey Him, so establish this our brother in the faith that he may
ever abound therein with thanksgiving; make fruitful his labor, directing his
heart into the love of God and into patient waiting for Christ.
To Thee be the glory, with the Father and with the Son, in the Church
which is in Christ Jesus, the holy, universal Christian Church, in the com-
munion of the saints, at all times, and from eternity to eternity. Amen.

PRIVATE CELEBRATION OF THE

Grace be unto you, and peace, from God our Father, and from the Lord Jesus
Christ. Amen.
Dearly beloved, hear the gracious promise of our Lord and Saviour: Where
two or three are gathered together in My Name, there am I in the midst of them;
and His invitation, Come unto Me, all ye who labor and are heavy laden, and
I will give you rest.
I am the Good Shepherd ; the Good Shepherd lays down His life for the
sheep. My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me, and I
give unto them eternal life.
I am the Bread of life ; he who comes to Me shall not hunger, and he who
believes on Me shall never thirst.
It is also written: Let a man examine himself, and so eat of the bread, and
drink of the cup. For if we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive
us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
Let us unite in silent prayer.
Silent prayer
% After silent prayer, the minister shall offer prayer, or use the following:
Most merciful and everdoving Saviour, at Thine invitation we come to Thee
to receive renewed assurance of the forgiveness of our sins and of our fellow-
ship with Thee. Conscious of our unworthiness and confessing our sins, we
come because Thou hast wrought for us a complete redemption. Cleanse our
hearts and lives, we beseech Thee, from all that is evil.
Sanctify this bread, that, as we partake of it, Thy life may enter into us, life-
eternal that triumphs over sickness and death. Bless this cup. As we drink of it,
sanctify us by Thy grace, in body, mind and spirit. Abide Thou in us, that the
life which we may yet live here shall be lived by faith in Thee, Who hast loved
us and given Thyself for us. Amen.
If The minister shall consecrate the bread.
Our Lord Jesus Christ, the same night in which He was betrayed, took bread,
and, when He had given thanks, He broke it, and gave it to His disciples, and
said: Take, eat; this is My body which is given for you. This do in remembrance
of Me.
Silent prayer
By Thy divine presence, by the holy sacraments, by all the merits of Thy life,
sufferings, death, and resurrection,
Bless and comfort us, gracious Lord and God. Amen.
147
Private Celebration of the Holy Communion
11 The minister shall consecrate the cup.
After the same manner also, our Lord Jesus Christ took the cup, when He had
supped, gave thanks, and gave it to His disciples, saying: Drink of it, all of you;
this is My blood, the blood of the New Covenant, which is shed for you and for
many, for the remission of sins. This do, as often as you drink it, in remem-
brance of Me.
Silent prayer
O Thou Lamb of God, Who takest away the sin of the world,
Give unto us Tby peace. Amen.
As often as you eat this bread, and drink the cup, you proclaim the Lord's
death,
Until He come.

Did the guiding star behold;

Leading onward, beaming bright;

Evermore be led to Thee.
As they offered gifts most rare
At that manger rude and bare;
So may we with holy joy,
Pure and free from sin's alloy,
All our costliest treasures bring,

Keep us in the narrow way;
And, when earthly things are past,
Bring our ransomed souls at last
Where they need no star to guide,
Where no clouds Thy glory hide.

Great David's greater Son !

To set the captive free,
To take away transgression,
And rule in equity.
He comes with succor speedy,
To those who suffer wrong;
To help the poor and needy,
And bid the weak be strong;
To give them songs for sighing,
Their darkness turn to light.
Whose souls, condemned and dying,
Were precious in His sight.

Wash your robes and make them white;

Come, let us sing the song of songs,
With hearts and voices swell the strain,
The homage which to Christ belongs;
"Worthy the Lamb, for He was slain!"
To Him who suffered on the tree,
Our souls, at His soul's price, to gain,
Blessing, and praise, and glory be;
"Worthy the Lamb, for He was slain!"
To Him, enthroned by filial right,
All power in heaven and earth proclaim,
Honor, and majesty, and might;
"Worthy the Lamb, for He was slain!"
Long as we live, and when we die,
And while in heaven with Him we reign,
This song, our song of songs shall be;
"Worthy the Lamb, for He was slain!"

O Thou, the Church's Head and Lord,

Thy flock, and richly with Thy word
And sacrament us feedest,

Our hearts bow down before Thee;
For none sufficiently can praise,
Love, honor, or adore Thee.

Be known to us in breaking bread,

Unless Thou appease its craving;

Feed Thou me, feed Thou me.
Holy Lord, Holy Lord,
By Thy body given to death,
Mortify my sinful nature,
Till I yield my dying breath.

Thine abide. Thine abide.

Hail, sacred feast which Jesus makes,
Rich banquet of His flesh and blood!
Thrice happy he who here partakes
That sacred stream, that heavenly food !
O let Thy table honored be,
And furnished well with joyful guests;
And may each soul salvation see
Who here its sacred pledges tastes.
Refresh Thy thirsting people, Lord,
And bid our drooping spirits live;
And more, that energy afford
A Saviour's love alone can give.
Jesus, my Redeemer lives !
I, too, unto life must waken.
He will have me where He is;
Shall my courage then be shaken?
Shall I fear? Or could the Head
Rise and leave His members dead?
Nay, too closely am I bound
Unto Him, by hope forever;
Faith's strong hand the rock hath found,
Grasped it, and will leave it never;
Not the ban of death can part
From its Lord the trusting heart.

Unite those now who walk apart,
Confirm the weak and doubting heart.
Grafenberg Hymn 19

Around the eternal throne,
Of every kindred, clime, and land,

May we faithful, may we faithful in our service be,
Truly careful, truly careful in our ministry;
Keep us to Thy Church fast bound,
In the faith preserve us sound,
Often weeping, often weeping grateful tears 'fore Thee.
Cassel (167, A)
Duke Street (22, QJ
Hymn 489
Hymn 251
Christian hearts, in love united,
Seek alone in Jesus rest.
Has He not your love excited?
Then let love inspire each breast;
Members on our Head depending,
Lights reflecting Him, our Sun,
Brethren, His commands attending,
We in Him, our Lord, are one.
O that such may be our union
As Thine with the Father is,
And not one of our communion
E'er forsake the path of bliss;
May our light 'fore men with brightness,
From Thy light reflected, shine;
Thus the world will bear us witness,
That we, Lord, are truly Thine.
Our only stay is Jesus' grace,
In every time and every place;
And Jesus' blood-bought righteousness
Remains His Church's glorious dress.
All self-dependence is but vain.
Christ doth our Corner-stone remain,
Our Rock which will unshaken stay
When heaven and earth are fled away.
He is and shall remain our Lord,
Our confidence is in His word;
And, while our Jesus reigns above,
His Church will more than conqueror prove.
If When the bread has been served, the communicants shall stand and the minister
shall sav :
Our Lord Jesus Christ said, Take, eat; this is My body which is given for you.
^| All shall partake together, after which all shall kneel.

O Gott du frommer Gott (146, c) Hymn 211
In Thee I trust by faith,
Jesus, my God and Saviour;
On Thy atoning death
My soul shall feed forever;
Thy sufferings shall remain
Deep on my heart impressed,
Thou Son of God and man,
Till I with Thee shall rest.
Tj The minister shall consecrate the cup.
After the same manner also, our Lord Jesus Christ took the cup, when He
had supped, gave thanks, and gave it to His disciples, saying: Drink of it, all
of you ; this is My blood, the blood of the New Covenant, which is shed for
you and for many, for the remission of sins. This do, as often as you drink it,
in remembrance of Me.
If As the minister serves the cup, the communicants in each pew stand to receive it
in the ungloved hand.
Worship (159, A) Hymn 569
All hail, our Church's Elder dear,
Jesus, her glorious Head,
To Thy disciples now appear
As risen from the dead;
Let our rejoicing souls in Thee
The tokens of Thy passion see,
And hear Thy gentle voice anew
Say, "Peace be unto you."
Remembering what our fathers told
Thou didst in their young day,
This solemn jubilee we hold,
That we, as then did they,
Ourselves in covenant may bind,
With soul and strength, with heart and mind,
Through life, in death, on land, o'er sea,
Meekly to follow Thee.

Communion Hymns
Batty (16, A) Hymn 244
Highly favored congregation,
Loved by Jesus and esteemed,
Ne'er forget thy destination,
Why from this vain world redeemed.
By love's closest bonds united,
As the Lord's own family,
Be to serve His Name excited,
Be to Him a fruitful tree.
St. Theodulph (151, G) Hymn 178
The ground of my profession
Is Jesus and His blood;
He gives me the possession
Of everlasting good.
Myself, and whatsoever
Is mine, I can not trust;
The gifts of Christ, my Saviour,
Remain my only boast.
Innsbruck (79, A) Hymn 390
O Fount of grace redeeming,
O River ever streaming
From Jesus' wounded side;
Come Thou, Thyself bestowing
On thirsty souls, and flowing
Till all their wants are satisfied.
Jesus, this feast receiving,
Thy word of truth believing,
We Thee unseen adore;
Grant, when our race is ended,
That we, to heaven ascended,
May see Thy glory evermore.
Agnus Christi (115, B) Hymn 36S
How great the bliss to be a sheep of Jesus,
And to be guided by His shepherd-staff;
Earth's greatest honors, howsoe'er they please us,
Compared to this, are vain and empty chaff;
Yea, what this world can never give
May, through the Shepherd's grace, each needy sheep receive.
193
Communion Hymns
Sleepers, Wake (230, A) Hymn 20C
Thus our bliss will last forever,
While we enjoy Thy love and favor,
And safe beneath Thy shadow rest,
We with joyful acclamation

To Thee, Ancient of Days,
Be honor, power, and praise
Now and ever;
Lord, grant that we eternally
May put our trust alone in Thee.

Communion Hymns
Covenant (185, A) Hymn 589
We who here together are assembled,
Joining hearts and hands in one,
Bind ourselves, with love that's undissembled,
Christ to love and serve alone.
O may our imperfect songs and praises
Be well-pleasing unto Thee, Lord Jesus.
Say: "My peace I leave with you."
Amen, Amen, be it so.
The Lord bless you, and keep you; the Lord make His face shine upon you,
and be gracious unto you; the Lord lift up His countenance upon you, and give
you peace ;

Cassel (167, A) Hymn 489
Come then, come, O flock of Jesus,
Covenant with Him anew;
Unto Him Who conquered for us,
Pledge we love and service true;
Let our mutual love be glowing,
Thus will all men plainly see
That we, as on one stem growing,
Living branches are in Thee.
1f The minister shall consecrate the bread.
Our Lord Jesus Christ, the same night in which He was betrayed, took bread,
and, when He had given thanks, He broke it, and gave it to His disciples, and
said: Take, eat; this is My body which is given for you. This do in remem-
brance of Me.
If As the minister serves the bread, the communicants in each pew stand to receive
it in the ungloved hand.
Bread of Life Hymn 241
Thou art the Bread of Life,
O Lord, to me,
Thy holy Word the truth
That saveth me;
Give me to eat and live
With Thee above;
Teach me to love Thy truth,
For Thou art love.
Bless Thou the truth, dear Lord,
To me — to me —
As Thou didst bless the bread
By Galilee;
Then shall all bondage cease,
All fetters fall;
And I shall find my peace,
My All-in-all.
Olivet Hymn 332
My faith looks up to Thee,
Thou Lamb of Calvary,
Saviour divine !

Hamburg (22, P)
Communion Hymns
Now hear me while I pray,
Take all my guilt away,
Oh, let me, from this day,
Be wholly Thine.
May Thy rich grace impart
Strength to my fainting heart,
My zeal inspire;
As Thou hast died for me,
O, may my love to Thee
Pure, warm and changeless be,
A living fire.
When I survey the wondrous cross
On which the Prince of Glory died,
My richest gain I count but loss,
And pour contempt on all my pride.
Forbid it, Lord, that I should boast,
Save in the death of Christ, my God;
All the vain things that charm me most,
I sacrifice them to His blood.
See, from His head, His hands, His feet,
Sorrow and love flow mingled down;
Did e'er such love and sorrow meet,
Or thorns compose so rich a crown?
Were the whole realm of nature mine,
That were a present far too small;
Love so amazing, so divine,
Demands my soul, my life, my all.
Hvmn 129
Hayn (82, D)
Jesus makes my heart rejoice,
I'm His sheep, and know His voice;
He's a Shepherd kind and gracious.
And His pastures are delicious;
Constant love to me He shows,
Yea, my very name He knows.
197
Communion Hymns
Trusting His mild staff always,
I go in and out in peace;
He will feed me with the treasure
Of His grace in richest measure;
When athirst to Him I cry,
Living water He'll supply.
Should not I for gladness leap,
Led by Jesus as His sheep ?
For when these blest days are over,
To the arms of my dear Saviour
I shall be conveyed to rest;
Amen, yea, my lot is blest.
Holy Lord (119, A) Hymn 230
Bread of Life, Bread of Life,
Christ, by Whom alone we live;
Bread that came to us from heaven;
My poor soul can never thrive
Unless Thou appease its craving;
Lord, I hunger only after Thee,
Feed Thou me, feed Thou me.
1f When the bread has been served, the communicants shall stand and the minister

Martyn (205, K) Hymn 381
Plenteous grace with Thee is found,
Grace to pardon all my sin;
Let the healing streams abound,
Make and keep me pure within.
Thou of life the Fountain art,
198
Communion Hymns
Freely let me take of Thee;
Spring Thou up within my heart,
Rise to all eternity.
'f The minister shall consecrate the cup.

Spanish Hymn (5S1, M ) Hymn .'!4.';
Once again beside the cross.
All my gain I count but loss;
Earthly pleasures fade away,
Clouds they are that hide my day;
Hence, vain shadows ! Let me see
Jesus crucified for me.
Blessed Saviour! Thine am I,
Thine to live, and Thine to die;
Height, or depth, or creature power,
Ne'er shall hide my Saviour more;
Ever shall my glory be,
Only, only, only Thee.
Toplady (581, L)
Rock of Ages, cleft for me,
Let me hide myself in Thee;
Let the water and the blood,
From Thy riven side which flowed.
Be of sin the double cure;
Cleanse me from its guilt and power.
Not the labor of my hands
Can fulfill Thy law's demands;
Could my zeal no respite know,
Could my tears forever flow,
All for sin could not atone;
Thou must save, and Thou alone.
199
Communion Hymns
Stephanos (2 69, C) Hymn 542
I am trusting Thee, Lord Jesus,
Trusting only Thee !
Trusting Thee for full salvation,
Great and free.
I am trusting Thee for pardon,
At Thy feet I bow,
For Thy grace and tender mercy,
Trusting now.
I am trusting Thee for cleansing
In the crimson flood,
Trusting Thee to make me holy
By Thy blood.
Aurelia (151, L) Hymn 242
The Church's one Foundation
Is Jesus Christ, her Lord;
She is His new creation
By water and the word;
From heaven He came and sought her,
To be His holy Bride;
With His own blood He bought her,
And for her life He died.
Elect from every nation,
Yet one o'er all the earth,
Her charter of salvation :
One Lord, one faith, one birth;
One holy Name she blesses,
Partakes one holy food,
And to one hope she presses,
With every grace endued.
Seelenbrautigam (68, A) Hymn 432
Jesus, still lead on,
Till our rest be won;
And although the way be cheerless,
We will follow, calm and fearless;
Guide us by Thy hand
To our fatherland.

Worship (159, A) Hymn 17
We now return each to his tent,
Joyful and glad of heart,
And from our solemn covenant
Through grace will ne'er depart.
Once more we pledge both heart and hand,
As in God's presence here we stand,
To live to Him, and Him alone,
Till we surround His throne.
The Lord bless you, and keep you; the Lord make His face shine upon you,
and be gracious unto you; the Lord lift up His countenance upon you, and
give you peace ;
In the Name of Jesus. Amen.

1 We gather together to ask the Lord's blessing ;
He chastens and hastens His will to make known ;
The wicked oppressing now cease from distressing;
Sing praises to His Name! He forgets not His own.
2 Beside us to guide us, our God with us joining,
Ordaining, maintaining His Kingdom divine;
So from the beginning the tight we were winning;
Thou, Lord, wast at our side; all glory be Thine!
3 We all do extol Thee, Thou Leader triumphant,
And pray that Thou still our Defender wilt be.
Let Thy congregation escape tribulation ;
Thy Name be ever praised! 0 Lord, make us free! Amen.

Bid Thou the blasts of dis-cord cease, The waves of strife be still.
Lift up our hearts to seek Thee there, Come down to meet us here. A-MEN.

Ere I Sleep, for Every Favor

Which my God hath bestowed
I will bless my Saviour ;
0 my Lord, what shall I render
Unto Thee? Thou shalt be
This night my Defender.

While I sleep, deign to keep
Watch from hour to hour ;

Be Thou near, that Thy care
Guard mv habitation.

Let Thy peace be my bliss,
Till Thou hence remove me ;
Then, aroused from peaceful slumber,
Let me rise with the wise,

Through His own redeeming love,
For that Child so dear and gentle
Is our Lord in heaven above;
And He leads His children on
To the place where He is gone.
Not in that poor lowly stable,
With the oxen standing by,
We shall see Him ; but in heaven,
Set at God's right hand on high,
When like stars His children crowned
All in white shall wait around.

Bless, 0 my soul, the liv-ingGod! Call home thy thoughts that rove a-bioad;
Bless, 0 my soul, the God of grace! His fa- vors claim thy high-est praise;
Tis He, my soul, that sent His Son To die for crimes which thou hast done;
Let the whole earth His power con-fess, Let the whole earth a-dore His grace;.

In Mercy, Lord, This Grace Bestow 294
Nicholas L. von Zinzendorf, 1700-1760
ROCKINGHAM, OLD L.M. (22, G)
1 In mercy, Lord, this grace bestow,
That in Thy service we may do
With gladness and a willing mind
Whatever is for us assigned.
2 Grant we, impelled by Thy love,
In smallest things may faithful prove ;
Till we depart, we wish to be
Devoted wholly unto Thee. Amen.

Joseph Grigg, 1720-1768 (1765)

1 Behold a Stranger at the door !
He gently knocks, has knocked before;
Has waited long — is waiting still;
You treat no other friend so ill.
3 But will He prove a Friend indeed?
He will, — the very Friend you need :
The Friend of sinners — yes, 'tis He,
With garments dyed on Calvary !
2 0 lovely attitude ! He stands
With melting heart and laden hands :
0 matchless kindness ! and He shows
This matchless kindness to His foes.
4 Rise, touched with gratitude divine :
Turn out His enemy and thine,
That soul-destroying monster, sin,
And let the heavenly Stranger in.

Blest Be the Day When I Must Roam 439
(The Moravian Emigrants' Hymn)
INNSBRUCK (79, A) No. 315
1 Blest be the day when I must roam
Far from my country, friends and home,
An exile, poor and mean ;
My fathers' God will be my Guide,
Will angel guards for me provide,
My soul, my soul in clanger screen.
2 Himself Avill lead me to a spot
Where, all my cares and griefs forgot,
I shall enjoy sweet rest.
As pants for cooling streams the hart,
I languish for my heavenly part,
For God, for God, my Refuge blest.
This hymn is printed here for its historic interest only. The members of our Ancient Unity sang these
words when bitter persecution compelled them to seek refuge and liberty of conscience in foreign
countries.

Though mercy long delay;

And trust Thee though Thou slay ;

Thus strengthened with all might,
