Sing to the Lord

"Next to the word of God, the art of music is the greatest treasure in the world." -Martin Luther. To understand the importance of hymnody in the Lutheran church, Luther House of Study's Mason Van Essen and Lars Olson sit down with Zachary Brockhoff each week to discuss the lectionary's hymns, their meaning and history, and how the music preaches the Gospel.

    "How Sweet the Name of Jesus Sounds” | Sixteenth Sunday After Pentecost

    ZACHARY'S NOTES: Stanza 1 // The name of Jesus is “sweet” not simply because it has been set to pleasing music, but because by Christ’s name, we are given faith. In Holy Baptism, Christ removes all sorrow and fear in this world with His promise.Stanza 2 // In what can sound like a long list of blessings, Jesus’ name is always extended to meet the needs of those in the world. It is wholeness for the wounded, calm for those without rest, manna to those who are hungry, and rest for the wear...

    "Awake, My Soul, and with the Sun” | Fifteenth Sunday After Pentecost

    ZACHARY'S NOTES: Stanza 1 // The book of Hebrews says we make a continual sacrifice to God. This means each day is one lived in the grace of God’s great sacrifice - one in which we sleep and rise in joy - for Christ has paid the price for our sin, and calls us to awake each day in His forgiveness.Stanza 2 // Just as Christ raises us from death to life in Jesus Christ, so we are given the gift of each day [and the many traditions and routines we enjoy] that God’s work mgiht be done in the...

    "O Jesus, Joy of Loving Hearts” | Fourteenth Sunday After Pentecost

    ZACHARY'S NOTES: Stanza 1 // The world God has made gives us many great gifts - all of which leave us unfilled apart from Jesus Christ. The call of Christ comes from one who has the “words of eternal life” - greater than all gifts of the world, even the most miraculous manna given to God’s people in the Old Testament.Stanza 2 // Those who know Jesus Christ have nowhere else to go! When we “taste the ever-living bread” and quench our “thirsting souls” with our Lord’s mercy and forgiveness...

    "I Am the Bread of Life” | Thirteenth Sunday After Pentecost

    ZACHARY'S NOTES: Stanza 1 // Christ’s words are sung by Christians to one another - perhaps most effectively when led by a choir, cantor, or small group of singers. Jesus gives us these words, and we come to Christ because God calls us to Himself.Stanza 2 // The bread Jesus gives is Himself for your life, which promises us life forever in God’s promise of resurrection.Stanza 3 // If we question the veracity of these words, Jesus points to those given truly miraculous, heavenly food as an...

    "Lord, Enthroned in Heavenly Splendor” | Twelfth Sunday After Pentecost

    ZACHARY'S NOTES: Stanza 1 // This hymn provides remarkable contrast between the questions in this weekend’s Gospel text. Here, Christ - enthroned in heavenly splendor - is the same Lord who comes down from heaven to give us “true and living bread!” This leads to shouts of “alleluia” meaning “praise the Lord!”Stanza 2 // The contrast between God enthroned in splendor and yet present is given further specificity - we worship not only with saints on earth but those in heaven! Though we may ...

    "All Who Hunger Gather Gladly” | Eleventh Sunday After Pentecost

    ZACHARY'S NOTES: Stanza 1 // Those who wander hungry and thirsty in the wilderness are given a promise from our Lord. In Him, we neither hunger nor thirst, for Christ comes to feed us continually with His word of truth. When Christ gives heavenly food, we taste and see the goodness of God.Stanza 2 // Whether lost, scattered, strangers, or seeking answers to questions, all of these come to rest in the promise Jesus gives. We stand firm in the love Christ offers us in Himself - the eternal...

    "Break Now the Bread of Life” | Tenth Sunday After Pentecost

    ZACHARY'S NOTES: Stanza 1 // Beyond the now popular stories and miracles of Jesus’ earthly life, this hymn is a prayer seeking Christ’s promise “beyond the sacred page” that we would know God as the Living Word today.Stanza 2 // When Christ gives us His word of truth, we are both named sinners and named as God’s forgiven people forever. In this promise, we know God’s blessing not only in abundance, but in times of distress and call out to Him as our Lord.Stanza 3 // Knowing Christ as the...

    "The Church’s One Foundation” | Ninth Sunday After Pentecost

    ZACHARY'S NOTES: Stanza 1 // Christ came to earth to make all people part of His Church - His beloved bride - as this hymn [and Scripture] say. Where Jesus’ promise of forgiveness is present, the Church exists, and those who are without a shepherd have the Good Shepherd in Jesus’ promise.Stanza 2 // When God gives His promise - whether through Christ or those He sends with the good news of the Gospel - those with ears to hear demand to know this promise. The church is “elect from every n...
