Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Book of Worship with Hymns and Tunes #46 (1899) Lyrics: 1 This is the day the Lord hath made;
He calls the hours His own:
Let heaven rejoice, let earth be glad,
And praise surround the throne.
2 To-day arose our glorious Head,
And death's dread empire fell;
To-day the saints His triumph spread,
And all His wonders tell.
3 Hosanna to the anointed King,
To David's holy Son;
Help us, O Lord,--descend and bring
Salvation from Thy throne.
4 Blest be the Lord, who comes to men
With messages of grace;
Who comes in God His Father's name
To save our sinful race.
5 Hosanna in the highest strains
The Church on earth can raise;
The highest heavens, in which He reigns,
Shall give Him nobler praise.
Amen. Topics: Lord's Day Teachings of Languages: English Tune Title: ARLINGTON
