Thousand, thousand thanks shall be, Dearest Jesus, unto Thee. 6 Thou hast suffered great affliction And hast borne it patiently, Even death by crucifixion, Fully to atone for me; Thou didst choose to be tormented That my doom should be prevented. Thousand, thousand thanks shall be, Dearest Jesus, unto Thee. 7 Then, for all that wrought my pardon, For Thy sorrows deep and sore, For Thine anguish in the Garden, I will thank Thee evermore, Thank Thee for Thy groaning, sighing, For Thy bleeding and Thy dying, For that last triumphant cry, And shall praise Thee, Lord, on high.

  • The Musical Heritage of the Lutheran Church Volume I
    The Musical Heritage of the Lutheran Church Volume I Edited by Theodore Hoelty-Nickel Valparaiso, Indiana The greatest contribution of the Lutheran Church to the culture of Western civilization lies in the field of music. Our Lutheran University is therefore particularly happy over the fact that, under the guidance of Professor Theodore Hoelty-Nickel, head of its Department of Music, it has been able to make a definite contribution to the advancement of musical taste in the Lutheran Church of America. The essays of this volume, originally presented at the Seminar in Church Music during the summer of 1944, are an encouraging evidence of the growing appreciation of our unique musical heritage. O. P.

ISBN 978-951-51-0001-6 (PDF) 5 Esipuhe Tämä tutkimusprojekti käynnistyi unesta. Se ei ollut ilmestys eikä painajainen. Olin miettinyt tiiviin työrupeamani keskellä jatko-opintoja, mutta aihe oli täysin auki. Polun pää puuttui. Al- kuvuodesta 2010 yhtenä arkiaamuna herättyäni ensimmäinen ajatus oli, että tutkimukseni voisi käsitellä ordinaatiokaavoja. Unen sisältöä en muistanut, mutta tunsin välittömästi iloa ajatuk- sesta. Tässä on tie. Tämä ilo on säilynyt koko prosessin ajan väsymyksenkin hetkinä. En ollut aikaisemmissa opinnoissani työskennellyt ordinaatioteeman parissa, mutta virkateologiasta olin aina ollut kiinnostunut. Lähdin töiden ohessa ottamaan asiasta selvää. Pian huomasin, kuinka teema oli hedelmällinen ja Suomessa vähän tutkittu. Esitin ajatukseni prof. Jyrki Knuutilalle, joka innostui välittömästi asiasta. Hän osasi auttaa ratkaisevalla alkuaskeleella eli tutkimustehtävän rajauksessa ja on ollut tukena koko matkan. Kun tehtävä ja dispositio hahmottuivat, otin yhteyttä prof. Miikka Ruokaseen, joka avoimuu- dellaan rohkaisi tutkimussuunnitelman tekemiseen ja dogmatiikan jatko-opiskelijaksi. Luvan jatko-opintoihin sainkin vuoden 2010 lopulla. Prof. Ruokasesta tuli tutkimukseni valvoja. Toi- seksi ohjaajaksi prof. Knuutilan lisäksi nimettiin prof. Risto Saarinen, joka suurella ammatti- taidollaan on ollut apuna tutkimuksen eri vaiheissa. Prof. Ruokasen jäätyä virkavapaalle prof. Pekka Kärkkäinen vei avuliaasti projektin loppuun. Asiantuntevat ja tarkat esitarkastajat dos. Jari Jolkkonen ja dos. Kari Kopperi veivät kommenteillaan tutkimustani eteenpäin.

  • Johann Sebastian Bach's St. John Passion from 1725: a Liturgical Interpretation
    Johann Sebastian Bach’s St. John Passion from 1725: A Liturgical Interpretation MARKUS RATHEY When we listen to Johann Sebastian Bach’s vocal works today, we do this most of the time in a concert. Bach’s passions and his B minor Mass, his cantatas and songs are an integral part of our canon of concert music. Nothing can be said against this practice. The passions and the Mass have been a part of the Western concert repertoire since the 1830s, and there may not have been a “Bach Revival” in the nineteenth century (and no editions of Bach’s works for that matter) without Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy’s concert performance of the St. Matthew Passion in the Berlin Singakademie in 1829.1 However, the original sitz im leben of both large-scaled works like his passions, and his smaller cantatas, is the liturgy. Most of his vocal works were composed for use during services in the churches of Leipzig. The pieces unfold their meaning in the context of the liturgy. They engage in a complex intertextual relationship with the liturgical texts that frame them, and with the musical (and theological) practices of the liturgical year of which they are a part. The following essay will outline the liturgical context of the second version of the St. John Passion (BWV 245a) Bach performed on Good Friday 1725 in Leipzig. The piece is a revision of the familiar version of the passion Bach had composed the previous year. The 1725 version of the passion was performed by the Yale Schola Cantorum in 2006, and was accompanied by several lectures I gave in New Haven and New York City.

  • Top 20 Reasons to Purchase Lutheran Service Book by Rev
    Top 20 Reasons to Purchase Lutheran Service Book By Rev. Michael Poynter 1. Our current hymnal, The Lutheran Hymnal (TLH), is now 65 years old—enough said. —Then again, maybe not. Here are another 19 reasons. 2. We have really only one Divine Service available for our use on Sunday morning from The Lutheran Hymnal—Page 15. Page 5 has the same musical settings as page 15, and in fact, these services are essentially the same except that page 5 does not have the communion liturgy. Because of our entertainment/media-oriented society, a majority of people look for variety. LSB fulfills this desire, yet at the same time keeps this variety strictly in line with the historic liturgy of the church. The new hymnal—Lutheran Service Book (LSB) has 5 Divine Services with communion available for our use on Sunday morning, all of which could be used on non-communion Sundays. This in a sense means we would actually have 10 services we could utilize for worship. In addition to these, the service of Prayer and Preaching, Matins, and Morning Prayer, could also be used on non-communion Sundays, which would give us a total of 13 different services our congregation could choose to use on Sunday morning. There are also the services of Vespers, Evening Prayer, and Compline, which we would have available for our use in our evening services. 3. There is sequential numbering of the pages in LSB. In other words, there is one set of page numbers. Currently, if one were to say, “turn to page 15 for our liturgy,” most non-LCMS visitors, not realizing that there are two sets of page numbers in our hymnal, would turn to hymn 15 and wonder where we are at.

  • Through the Church the Song Goes on ALCM 25Th Anniversary Hymn Festival Reflections
    Through the Church the Song Goes On ALCM 25th Anniversary Hymn Festival Reflections Reflection 1 – Mark P. Bangert “While we own the mystery”< and for a moment there it seemed like we did have our bodies wrapped around it through soaring sounds of voice and instrument. It’s convenient, if not satisfying, to imagine ourselves owners, as if mystery were artifact. If it were true, if we indeed can own the mystery, even for a moment, then could we just call it quits right now, content with our contribution to the waking praise hours from morn to set of sun? Are we done? The problem is that we don’t own the mystery; rather, the mystery owns us. Can we call it quits now? No, because we never have or own the mystery, we are given to be known by it. We have just begun to enter that intricate braid of relationships revealing what it means to BE in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Could we call it quits now? I doubt it. Holy Father, Holy Son, Holy Breath have been roused. They are owning us. We could never even have begun without the Creator giving us, as Luther reminds us, “my body and soul, eyes, ears, . house, home, life,” and, in this moment, voice— all gifts. Nor could we know that all those things are gifts without any merit on our part, were it not for the Son, the Word, who, “just as he is risen from the dead lives” (now, here) “and reigns” (now, here) “eternally”.

  • A Comparison of Lutheran Hymnals for Use in Corporate Worship
    A Comparison of Lutheran Hymnals for Use in Corporate Worship Hymns: A Reformation Heritage It is generally acknowledged and understood that the Lutheran Reformation had a significant impact on corporate worship, especially congregational singing. Until the time of Luther and his contemporaries, hymns were seldom sung by the congregation. When they were, they were often lacking in good theological content and usefulness. They generally focused on exploring one's feelings and emotions toward God rather than on proclaiming God's grace in Christ toward mankind. The Reformation's emphasis on the Word of God carried over into the hymns of that time. Hymns became tools for preaching the word. They became devotions and sermons complete with Law and Gospel. They became tools for teaching important doctrines such as Baptism, the Ten Commandments, and the Lord's Supper. Suddenly hymns themselves were telling the Good News, transmitting the Message. One observer remarked that over time Luther's hymn Dear Christians, One and All, Rejoice had done more to spread the gospel worldwide than armies of missionaries. Through the Lutheran hymns the gospel made its way into Christian homes in ways that the Sunday sermon did not. People would sing around the dinner table, they would sing on their way to work, they formed choirs and singing societies—and the word of the Lord grew. The Importance of Hymnals Hymnals played an important role in all this. The moveable type printing press made possible the publication of many different hymnals in the decades following Luther. Hymnals were taken home and used. As time passed, orders of service and other supplemental materials were added to the books.
