Christ Has Risen
He dies! the friend of sinners dies
Author: Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 646 hymnals Scripture: Luke 24:34 Lyrics: 1 He dies! the friend of sinners dies;
Lo! Salem's daughters weep around;
A solemn darkness veils the skies;
A sudden trembling shakes the ground.
2 Here's love and grief beyond degree:
The Lord of glory dies for men:
But lo! what sudden joys we see,
Jesus, the dead, revives again!
3 The rising God forsakes the tomb;
Up to his Father's court he flies;
Cherubic legions guard him home,
And shout him welcome to the skies.
4 Break off your tears, ye saints, and tell
How high our great Deliverer reigns;
Sing how he spoiled the hosts of hell,
And led the tyrant, Death, in chains.
5 Say, Live forever, glorious King,
Born to redeem, and strong to save!
Where now, O Death, where is thy sting?
And where thy victory, boasting Grave?

Jesus, thou joy of loving hearts
Author: Ray Palmer (1808-1887) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 566 hymnals Scripture: Luke 24:29 Lyrics: 1 Jesus, thou joy of loving hearts,
thou light of life, thou fount of grace:
from the best bliss that earth imparts
we turn unfilled to seek thy face.
2 Thy truth unchanged has ever stood;
thou savest those that on thee call:
to those that seek thee thou art good,
to those that find thee, all in all.
3 We taste thee, O thou living bread,
and long to feast upon thee still;
we drink of thee, the fountain-head,
and thirst our souls from thee to fill.
4 Our restless spirits yearn for thee,
where'er our changeful lot is cast,
glad when thy gracious smile we see,
blest when our faith can hold thee fast.
5 O Jesus, ever with us stay;
make all our moments calm and bright;
chase the dark night of sin away;
shed o'er the world thy holy light. Topics: The Church Celebrates Holy Communion; Longing Used With Tune: MARYTON Text Sources: 12th century

open my ears, illumine me,
Spirit divine!

gladly the warm truth everywhere;
open my heart, and let me prepare
love with thy children thus to share.
Silently now I wait for thee,
ready, my God, thy will to see;
open my heart, illumine me,
Spirit divine!

Christians, haste your vows to pay;
Make your joy and praises known
At the Paschal Victim's throne.

Sinless in the sinner's stead.

Now he lives, no more to die.

God and sinners reconciled,
When in fierce and bloody strife
Met together death and life.

Raise your hearts with joy and say:
"Christ the Lord is ris'n on high;
Now he lives, no more to die."

What you saw along your way.

Of the risen Lord of light,
Empty tomb and angels seen
Where Christ's body once had been.
Christ my hope, raised gloriously,
Makes his way to Galilee."

Now the first-born from the dead,
Throned in endless might and pow'r,
Lives and reigns for evermore.
Hail, eternal Hope on high!
Hail, O King of victory!
Hail, our Prince of life adored!
Show us mercy, gracious Lord.
