and yet whose faith has constant been,
for they eternal life shall win.

We Walk by Faith and Not by Sight
Author: Henry Alford. 1810-1871 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 71 hymnals Scripture: John 20:19-31 Lyrics: 1 We walk by faith, and not by sight;
No gracious words draw near,
O Christ , Who spoke as none e’er spoke;
"My preace be with you here."
2 We may not touch Your hands and side,
Nor follow where You trod;
But in your promise we rejoice,
And cry, “My Lord and God!”
3 Help then, O Lord, our unbelief;
And may our faith abound
To call on You when You are near,
And seek where You are found.
4 That, when our life of faith is done,
In realms of clearer light
We may behold You as You are,
With full and endless sight.

and he tells me I am his own;
and the joy we share as we tarry there,
none other has ever known.

is so sweet the birds hush their singing,
and the melody that he gave to me
within my heart is ringing. (Refrain)

though the night around me be falling,
but he bids me go; thru the voice of woe
his voice to me is calling. (Refrain)

That Easter Day with Joy Was Bright
Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 77 hymnals Scripture: John 20:19-23 Lyrics: 1 That Easter day with joy was bright:
the sun shone out with fairer light
when to their longing eyes restored,
th'apostles saw their risen Lord.

his wounded hands and feet he showed;
those scars their solemn witness gave
that Christ was risen from the grave.
3 O Jesus, King of gentleness,
do all our inmost hearts possess,
that we may give thee all our days
the willing tribute of our praise.
4 O Lord of all, with us abide
in this, our joyful Easter-tide;
from ev'ry weapon death can wield
thine own redeemed forever shield. Topics: Christ Conqueror Used With Tune: PUER NOBIS NASCITUR Text Sources: Early medieval Latin hymn; Tr. in Hymns Ancient and Modern, 1861; alt.

Crown Him with Many Crowns
Author: Matthew Bridges; Godfrey Thring Meter: 6.6.8.6 D Appears in 793 hymnals Scripture: John 20:25-28 Lyrics: 1 Crown him with many crowns, the Lamb upon his throne;
hark! how the heavenly anthem drowns all music but its own;
awake, my soul, and sing of him who died for thee,
and hail him as thy matchless king through all eternity.
2 Crown him the Lord of life, who triumphed o'er the grave,
and rose victorious in the strife for those he came to save;
his glories now we sing who died and rose on high,
who died eternal life to bring, and lives that death may die.
3 Crown him the Lord of love; behold his hands and side,
rich wounds, yet visible above, in beauty glorified;
no angels in the sky can fully bear that sight,
but downward bends their burning eye at mysteries so bright.
4 Crown him the Lord of years, the potentate of time,
creator of the rolling spheres, ineffably sublime.
All hail, Redeemer, hail! for thou hast died for me;
thy praise shall never, never fail throughout eternity.

Author: John M. Neale; John of Damascus, 8th century Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 516 hymnals Scripture: John 20:19 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, list'ning to His accents,
May hear, so calm and plain,
His own "All hail!" and, hearing,
May raise the victor strain.
3 Now let the heav'ns be joyful!
Let earth her song begin!
The world resound in triumph,
And all that is therein;
Let all things seen and unseen
Their notes of gladness blend;
For Christ the Lord hath risen,
Our joy that hath no end.
Amen.
