How Rich, at Eastertide
Author: Joachim Oudaen; Fred Pratt Green Hymnal: Rejoice in the Lord #329 (1985) Meter: 6.7.6.7 D Lyrics: 1 How rich, at Eastertide,
the harvest we are reaping,
for Christ, the Crucified,
gives comfort to the weeping.
Saved by his bitter death,
with all our sins forgiven,
we learn to live by faith,
for now is Christ arisen.
2 As first-gifts hallow all
if offered in thanksgiving,
so Christ has died for all,
the First of all the living.
Wherefore, the blessed dead,
who else had vainly striven,
are on with him, their Head,
for Christ is now arisen.
3 The Lord, who taught the way
of dying and forsaking,
shall bring us to that day
of our complete awaking.
Then let no ill destroy
the hope we have of heaven:
come, serve our God with joy,
for now is Christ arisen.

For now is Christ arisen, arisen, arisen;

If offered in thanksgiving,
So Christ has died for all,

For now is Christ arisen, arisen, arisen;
For now is Christ arisen.

Of dying and forsaking,
Shall bring us to that day
Of our complete awaking.
Then let no ill destroy
The hope we have of heaven:
Come, serve our God with joy,
For now is Christ arisen, arisen, arisen;
For now is Christ arisen.
