Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Lift up your hearts (Woodlands tune)

'Lift up your hearts!' We lift them, Lord, to thee;
Here at thy feet none other may we see:
'Lift up your hearts!' E'en so, with one accord,
We lift them up, we lift them to the Lord.

Above the level of the former years,
The mire of sin, the slough of guilty fears,
The mist of doubt, the blight of love's decay,
O Lord of Light, lift all our hearts to-day!

Above the swamps of subterfuge and shame,
The deeds, the thoughts, that honor may not name,
The halting tongue that dares not tell the whole,
O Lord of Truth, lift every Christian soul!

Lift every gift that thou thyself hast given;
Low lies the best till lifted up to heaven:
Low lie the bounding heart, the teeming brain,
Till, sent from God, they mount to God again.

Then, as the trumpet-call, in after years,
'Lift up your hearts!' rings pealing in our ears,
Still shall those hearts respond, with full accord,
'We lift them up, we lift them to the Lord!'

Deutsch: Lift up your hearts (Sursum Corda), Lied von H. Montagu Butler (1833-1918), Melodie Woodlands von Walter Greatorex (1877-1949)
Reimübertragung (R.F.):

„Erhebt die Herzen!“ Wir erheben sie,
o Herr, zu dir und beugen unsre Knie.
„Erhebt die Herzen!“ Ja, in Einigkeit
erheben wir sie aus dem Tal der Zeit.

Aus dichten Nebeln, die kein Licht durchdringt,
aus Angst und Zweifeln, wo die Seele ringt,
aus tiefer Schuld, da uns die Liebe fehlt,
erheb uns, Herr, zu dir, der einzig zählt.

Mit unsern besten Gaben kommen wir:
Zum Segen werden sie allein in dir.
Was wir vermögen mit Verstand und Herz,
Quell alles Guten, heb es himmelwärts!

Hier am Altar erhebst du, was wir sind,
und einst in Fülle, wenn dein Tag beginnt.
„Erhebt die Herzen!“ schallt es dann von fern,
und ewig heißt’s: „Wir haben sie beim Herrn!“
