Come, Ye Faithful, Raise The Strain
Author: St. John of Damascus, 8th cent.; John M. Neale, 1818-1866 Hymnal: Journeysongs (3rd ed.) #402 (2012) Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.6.7.6 Scripture: 1 Corinthians 15:20-28 First Line: Come, ye faithful raise the strain Lyrics: 1 Come, ye faithful, raise the strain
Of triumphant gladness;
God has brought his Israel
Into joy from sadness;
Loosed from Pharoah's bitter yoke
Jacob's sons and daughters;
Led them with unmoistened foot
Through the Red Sea waters.
2 'Tis the spring of souls today;
Christ has burst his prison,
And from three days' sleep in death
As a sun has risen;
All the winter of our sins,
Long and dark, is flying
From his light, to whom we give
Laud and praise undying.
3 Now the queen of seasons bright
With the day of splendor,
With the royal feast of feasts
Comes its joy to render;
Comes to gladden faithful hearts
Who with true affection
Welcome in unwearied strains
Jesus' resurrection.
4 Neither could the gates of death,
Nor the tomb's dark portal,
Nor the watchers, nor the seal
Hold him as a mortal;
But today amid the twelve
Christ appeared, bestowing
Lasting peace which evermore
Passes human knowing.
5 "Alleluia!" now we cry
To our King immortal,
Who, triumphant, burst the bars
Of the tomb's dark portal;
"Alleluia!" with the Son,
God the Father praising;
"Alleluia!" yet again
To the Spirit raising. Languages: English Tune Title: GAUDEAMUS PARITER

and clothed in righteousness divine,
bold I approach the eternal throne,
and claim the crown, through Christ, my own.
