Lent V - 29 March 2020
Listen to the Organ Prelude
"Alle Menschen müssen sterben" BWV 643
I. Melody on chimes II. Hymn III. Chorale Prelude by Johann Sebastian BACH
    Hark! a voice saith, all are mortal, Yea, all flesh must fade as grass,
    Only through Death’s gloomy portal, To a better life ye pass,
    And this body formed of clay Here must languish and decay,
    Ere it rise in glorious might, Fit to dwell with saints in light.

Listen to the hymn: O Christ, Thou Lamb of God, LBW 103
    O Christ, thou Lamb of God That takest away the sin of the world,
    Have mercy upon us!
    O Christ, thou Lamb of God That takest away the sin of the world,
    Have mercy upon us!
    O Christ, thou Lamb of God That takest away the sin of the world,
    Grant us thy peace! Amen

Listen to an Organ Offertory
"Ich ruf’ zu Dir, Herr Jesu Christ" BWV 639
I. Melody on chimes II. Hymn III. Chorale Prelude by Johann Sebastian BACH
    I call to Thee, Lord Jesus Christ,
    I pray, hear my lamentation!
    bestow your grace on me at this time,
    do not le me despair;
    True faith in Thee, O Lord, I seek;
    That which you would give me,
    To live for Thee,
    To serve my neighbor,
    And take Thy word to heart.

Listen to the hymn: O Master, Let Me Walk with You, LBW 492
    O Master, let me walk with you
    In lowly paths of service true;
    Tell me your secret; help me bear
    The strain of toil, the fret of care.
    Help me the slow of heart to move
    By some clear, winning word of love;
    Teach me the wayward feet to stay,
    And guide them in the homeward way.
    Teach me your patience; share with me
    A closer, dearer company,
    In work that keeps faith sweet and strong,
    In trust that triumphs over wrong,
    In hope that sends a shining ray
    Far down the future’s broad’ning way,
    In peace that only you can give;
    With you, O Master, let me live.
