Author: Rev. Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Hymnal #23 (1950) Meter: 8.6.8.6 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 Today He rose and left the dead,
And Satan's empire fell;
Today the saints His triumphs spread,
And all His wonders tell.
3 Hosanna to th' anointed King,
To David's holy Son!
Help us, O Lord; descend and bring
Salvation from the throne.
4 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: Times of Worship The Lord's Day; Lord's Day, The; Worship The Lord's Day Scripture: Psalm 118 Tune Title: ARLINGTON
