"Now May He Who from the Dead" by John Newton, 1725-1807 Text From: THE LUTHERAN HYMNAL (St. Louis: Concordia Publishing House, 1941) 1. Now may He who from the dead Brought the Shepherd of the sheep, Jesus Christ, our King and Head, All our souls in safety keep! 2. May He teach us to fulfil What is pleasing in His sight, Perfect us in all His will, And preserve us day and night! 3. To that dear Redeemer's praise, Who the covenant sealed with blood, Let our hearts and voices raise Loud thanksgivings to our God. _______________________________________ Notes: Hymn #51 from _The Lutheran Hymnal_ Text: Hebrews 13:20, 21 Author: John Newton, 1779 Composer: Leighton G.
