The Day of Resurrection

Author: John of Damascus, c.696-754; John M. Neale, 1818-1866 Hymnal: RHC #208 (1970) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D First Line: The day of resurrection! Lyrics: 1 The day of resurrection! Earth, tell it out abroad; The Passover of gladness, The Passover of God. From death to life eternal, From earth unto the sky, Our Christ hath brought us over With hymns of victory. 2 Our hearts be pure from evil, That we may see aright The Lord in rays eternal Of resurrection light; And, listening to his accents, May hear, so calm and plain His own "All hail" and, hearing, May raise the victor strain. 3 Now let the heavens be joyful, Let earth its song begin, The round world keep high triumph, And all that is therein; Let all things seen and unseen Their notes of gladness blend; For Christ the Lord has risen, Our joy that has no end. Amen. Topics: Resurrection and Reign Languages: English Tune Title: LANCASHIRE

O Father All Creating

Author: Samuel J. Stone Hymnal: RHC #475 (1970) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Lyrics: 1 O Father all Creating, Whose wisdom, love and power, First bound two lives together In Eden's primal hour, Today to these thy children Thine earliest gifts renew, A home by thee made happy A love by thee kept true. 2 O Saviour, guest most bounteous Of old in Galilee, Vouchsafe today thy presence With these who call on thee, Their store of earthly gladness transform t heavenly wine, And teach them in the tasting To know the gift is thine. 3 O Spirit of the Father, Breathe on them from above, So mighty in thy pureness, So tender in thy love, That, guarded by thy presence, From sin and strife kept free, Their lives may own thy guidance, Their hearts be rule by thee. 4 Except thou build it, Father, The house is built in vain; Except thou Saviour, bless it, The joy will turn to pain; But nought can break the union, Of hearts in thee made one; And love thy Spirit hallows Is endless love begun. Amen. Topics: Home Languages: English Tune Title: AURELIA

Beneath the Cross of Jesus

Author: Elizabeth C. Clephane Hymnal: RHC #560 (1970) Meter: 7.6.8.6.8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Beneath the cross of Jesus I fain would take my stand, The shadow of a mighty rock Within a weary land; A home within the wilderness, A rest upon the way, From the burning of the noontide heat, And the burden of the day. 2 Upon that cross of Jesus Mine eyes at times can see The very dying form of One Who suffered there for me; And from my smitten heart with tears These wonders I confess, - The wonders of His glorious love, And my own worthlessness. 3 I take, O cross, thy shadow For my abiding place; I ask no other sunshine than The sunshine of His face; Content to let the world go by, To know no gain nor loss, My sinful self my only shame, My glory all the cross.

Help us, O Lord; descend and bring Salvation from the throne. 4 Blest be the Lord, who comes to men With messages of grace; Who comes in God his Father's Naem To save our fallen race. 5 Hosanna in the highest strains The Church on earth can raise! The highest heav'ns in which he reigns Shall give him nobler praise. Amen. Topics: Lord's Day Languages: English Tune Title: ARLINGTON
