1st Article & Meaning
I believe in God, the Father almighty, maker of heaven and earth.
What does this mean?
I believe that God created me and all that exists, and that he gave me my body and soul, eyes, ears and all my members, my mind and all my abilities.
And I believe that God still preserves me by richly and daily providing clothing and shoes, food and drink, house and home, spouse and children, land, cattle, and all I own, and all I need to keep my body and life. God also preserves me by defending me against all danger, guarding and protecting me from all evil.
All this God does only because he is my good and merciful Father in heaven, and not because I have earned or deserved it. For all this I ought to thank and praise, to serve and obey him.

Who in bitter pains
Poured for me the lifeblood
From his sacred veins.

Infinitely kind.

Swell the mighty flood;
Louder still and louder
Praise the precious blood! -

Hymn 112:1,2
There is a fountain filled with blood
Immanuel was slain
And sinners who are washed therein

And there have I, as vile as he,
Washed all my sins away,
Washed all my sins away. -
Hymn 117:1,5
O dearest Jesus, what law have you broken
That such sharp sentence should on you be spoken?

The sinful child of man may live in gladness;
We forfeited our lives, yet are acquitted--
God is committed. -
Hymn 121:1
Jesus, grant that balm and healing
In your holy wounds I find,

Pains of body and of mind.

Tempt my treach'rous heart to sin,
Show the peril, and from sinning
Keep me from its first beginning. -

Hark the glad sound! The Savior comes,

The gates of brass before him burst;
The iron fetters yield. -
Hymn 125:1,2
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.

Save in the death of Christ, my God.
All the vain things that charm me most,
I sacrifice them to his blood. -
Hymn 129:1,2
Alas! and did my Savior bleed,
And did my Sov'reign die?

Amazing pity, grace unknown,
And love beyond degree! -

Jesus Christ it is,
The almighty Lord.
And there's no other God;
He holds the field forever. -

Ever and eternally. -

Hymn 299:1,2
All who believe and are baptized
Shall see the Lord's salvation;
Baptized into the death of Christ,
They are a new creation.
Through Christ's redemption they shall stand
Among the glorious, heav'nly band
Of ev'ry tribe and nation.
With one accord, O God, we pray:
Grant us your Holy Spirit.
Help us in our infirmity
Through Jesus' blood and merit.
Grant us to grow in grace each day
That by this sacrament we may
Eternal life inherit. -

Jesus sinners does receive.
Even I have been forgiven.
And when I this earth must leave,
I shall find an open heaven.
Dying, still to him I cleave--
Jesus sinners does receive. -
Hymn 324:1,2
Almighty God, your word is cast
Like seed into the ground;
Now let the dew of heav'n descend,
And righteous fruits abound.
Let not the foe of Christ and man
This holy seed remove,
But give it root in ev'ry heart
To bring forth fruits of love. -

The triumphs of his grace! -

In the cross of Christ I glory,
Tow'ring o'er the wrecks of time.

Hopes deceive and fears annoy,
Never shall the cross forsake me;
Lo, it glows with peace and joy. -
Hymn 351:1
Hail, O once despised Jesus!
Hail, O Galilean King!
You have suffered to release us,
Hope to give and peace to bring.
Hail, O universal Savior,
Bearer of our sin and shame;
By your merits we find favor;
Life is given through your name. -
Hymn 363:1,3
The king of glory comes,
The nation rejoices
Open the gates before him,
Lift up your voices.
Who is the king of glory? How shall we call him?
He is Immanuel, the promised of ages.
He gave his life for us, the lamb of salvation;
He took upon himself the sin of the nations. -
Hymn 380:1
Lord, 'tis not that I did choose you;
That, I know, could never be,
For this heart would still refuse you
Had your grace not chosen me.
You removed the sin that stained me,
Cleansing me to be your own;
For this purpose you ordained me,
That I live for you alone. -
Hymn 38:1,2
From heav'n above to earth I come
To bear good news to ev'ry home;
Glad tidings of great joy I bring,
Whereof I now will say and sing:
To you this night is born a child
Of Mary, chosen virgin mild;
This little child of lowly birth
Shall be the joy of all the earth. -
Hymn 382:1,2
My hope is built on nothing less
Than Jesus' blood and righteousness;
I dare to make no other claim,
But wholly lean on Jesus' name.
On Christ, the solid rock, I stand;
All other ground is sinking sand.
When darkness veils his lovely face,
I rest on his unchanging grace;
In ev'ry high and stormy gale
My anchor holds within the veil.
On Christ, the solid rock, I stand;
All other ground is sinking sand. -
Hymn 432:1,2
I am Jesus' little lamb;
Ever glad at heart I am,
For my shepherd gently guides me,
Knows my needs and well provides me,
Loves me ev'ry day the same,
Even calls me by my name.
Day by day, at home, away,
Jesus is my staff and stay.
When I hunger, Jesus feeds me,
Into pleasant pastures leads me;
When I thirst, he bids me go
Where the quiet waters flow. -
Hymn 436:1
Jesus, shepherd of the sheep,
Who your Father's flock does keep,

Guarded still by you. -
Hymn 440:1,3
You who dwell in the shelter of the Lord,
Who abide in his shadow for life,
Say to the Lord: "My refuge,
My rock in whom I trust!"
And He will raise you up on eagles' wings,
Bear you on the breath of dawn,
Make you to shine like the sun,
And hold you in the palm of his hand.
For to his angels he's given a command
To guard you in all of your ways;
Upon their hands they will bear you up,
Lest you dash your foot against a stone.
And He will raise you up on eagles' wings,
Bear you on the breath of dawn,
Make you to shine like the sun,
And hold you in the palm of his hand. -
Hymn 462:1,2
O that the Lord would guide my ways
To keep his statutes still!
O that my God would grant me grace
To know and do his will!
Order my footsteps by your Word,
And make my heart sincere;
Let sin have no dominion, Lord,
But keep my conscience clear. -
Hymn 471:1,4
Renew me, O eternal Light,
And let my heart and soul be bright,
Illumined with the light of grace
That issues from Your holy face.
Grant that I only You may love
And seek those things which are above
Till I behold You face to face,
O Light eternal, through Your grace. -
Hymn 484:1
Brothers, sisters, let us gladly
Give to God our all, our best--
Service hearty, thorough, honest,
With a living love impressed.
All our duty, all our striving,
All our time to him belong;
Praise him, then, with true devotion;
Come before him with a song. -
Hymn 488:1
Savior, thy dying love
Thou gavest me;
Nor should I aught withhold,
Dear Lord, from thee.
In love my soul would bow,
My heart fulfill its vow,
Some off'ring bring thee now,
Something for thee. -

Love in Christ is strong and living,

Love, forgiving and forgiven,
Shall endure until life's end. -

O Master of the loving heart,
The friend of all in need,

That all your children, ev'rywhere,
Be drawn by us to you. -

The Church our blest Redeemer saved
With his own precious blood.

Your saints in ev'ry land,
Dear as the apple of your eye
And graven on your hand. -

Rest, O Christ, from all your labor;

All unseen another watches:
God will not forsake his own. -

What bliss beyond compare;
To sing the hymn unending
With all the martyr throng,
Amidst the halls of Zion
Resounding full with song. -

Hymn 752:1
In Christ alone my hope is found,
He is my light, my strength, my song;
this Cornerstone, this solid Ground,
firm through the fiercest drought and storm.
What heights of love, what depths of peace,
when fears are stilled, when strivings cease!
My Comforter, my All in All,
here in the love of Christ I stand. -

The night and the day are both alike.
The Lamb is the light of the city of God.
Shine in my heart, Lord Jesus. -

Hymn 83:1,3
As with gladness men of old
Did the guiding star behold,
As with joy they hailed its light,
Leading onward, beaming bright,

Evermore your foll'wers be.
As they offered gifts most rare
At your cradle, rude and bare,
So may we with holy joy,
Pure and free from sin's alloy,
All our costliest treasures bring,
Christ, to you, our heav'nly King. -

Where Moses and Elijah stand,
Your messengers of old. -
