"Christ the Lord is risen to-day,"
Sons of men and angels say.
Raise your joys and triumphs high;
Sing, ye heavens, and earth reply.
"Hark the herald angels sing,
Glory to the new-born king."
Peace on earth, and mercy mild,
God and sinners reconciled.!
A charge to keep I have,
A God to glorify:
A never-dying soul to save,
And fit it for the sky.
Faith, mighty faith, the promise sees, And looks to God alone; Laughs at impossibilities, And cries it shall be done. God buries His workmen but carries on His work.God is gone up on high with a triumphant noise. Hail the day that sees Him rise,
Ravished from our wistful eyes!
Christ, awhile to mortals given,
Re-ascends His native heaven.
There the glorious triumph waits,
Lift your heads, eternal gates!
Wide unfold the radiant scene,
Take the King of glory in!
Lo! on a narrow neck of land,
'Twixt two unbounded seas, I stand.
Secure, insensible.
My soul is all an aching void.
Not from his head was woman took,
As made her husband to o'erlook;
Not from his feet, as one designed
The footstool of the stronger kind;
But fashioned for himself, a bride;
An equal, taken from his side.
O that in me the sacred fire might now begin to glow,
Burn up the dross of base desire,
And make the mountains flow.One family--we dwell in Him,
One church above, beneath,
Though now divided by the stream,
The narrow stream of death.
See the Gospel Church secure,
And founded on a Rock!
All her promises are sure;
Her bulwarks who can shock?
Count her every precious shrine;
Tell, to after-ages tell,
Fortified by power divine,
The Church can never fail.
When summoned hence to thine eternal sleep,
Oh, may'st thou smile while all around thee weep.
