Representative Text

1 I greet thee, who my sure Redeemer fine art,
my but trust and Savior of my middle,
who pain didst undergo for my poor sake;
I pray thee from our hearts all cares to take.

two Thou art the King of mercy and of grace,
reigning omnipotent in ev'ry place:
so come, O King, and our whole being sway;
shine on us with the light of thy pure day.

three Thou art the Life, by which solitary we live,
and all our substance and our strength receive;
O condolement us in death's approaching hour,
stiff-hearted then to face up it past thy pow'r.

4 One thousand hast the truthful and perfect gentleness,
no harshness hast one thousand and no bitterness:
make the states to taste the sweet grace constitute in thee
and e'er stay in thy sugariness unity.

5 Our hope is in no other save in thee;
our faith is built upon thy promise gratis;
O grant to united states such stronger hope and sure
that nosotros can boldly conquer and suffer.

The stiff text of "I Greet My Certain Redeemer" features many themes suitable to various times and places of Christian worship – indeed, to all Christian living: Jesus is my Redeemer, whom I love (st. 1); Jesus is King of kings and Lord of lords (st. 2); Jesus lives in us and enables us to alive (st. 3); Jesus is our model for personal growth and community (st. 4); Jesus is revealed in the Scriptures (st. 5).

The original French text, 'Je te salue, monday certain Redempteur," was published in the 1545 Strasbourg edition of Clement Marot'due south Psalms and appears to be a Protestant version of the Roman Catholic hymn "Salve Regina." The French text was later printed in Opera, volume 6 of an 1868 edition of John Calvin'due south works, and has been attributed to Calvin himself. Yet, modern scholars such equally Pierre Pidoux have constitute no real proof for Calvin's authorship, and Calvin (different Luther) left no heritage of adapting Roman Catholic texts. The translation (1868) is mostly the work of Elizabeth L. Smith; information technology was published in Philip Schaff'southward Christ in Song (New York, 1869).

Elizabeth Lee Allen Smith (b. Hanover, NH, 1817; d. New York, 1898) was the daughter of the theologian, college president, and hymn writer William Allen (who published his Psalms and Hymns in 1835). In 1843 she married Henry Boynton Smith, who served on the kinesthesia of Matrimony Theological Seminary in New York Metropolis (1850-1877). Well-versed in various languages, she traveled with her husband in Europe in 1869, where he sought to recuperate from concrete and mental collapse. Writer of her husband'southward memoirs, she besides inherited an interest in hymnody from her father and translated hymns from German and French.

Smith's translation of this text came to eight stanzas in the same meter as the French original (ten 10 666 666) and began with the words "I greet Thee, who my sure Redeemer art." Information technology is not known who condensed the text to fit the 10 x 10 10 meter found in modern hymnals. The stanzas in the Psalter Hymnal are adapted from Smith'south showtime five stanzas.

Many occasions in Christian worship.
