At the Lamb's high feast we sing

Author: Rpbert Campbell, 1814-1868 Appears in 186 hymnals Scripture: Acts 2:24 Lyrics: 1 At the Lamb's high feast we sing praise to our victorious King, who hath washed us in the tide flowing from his piercèd side; praise we him, whose love divine gives his sacred blood for wine, gives his body for the feast, Christ the victim, Christ the priest. 2 Where the paschal blood is poured, death's dark angel sheathes his sword; Israel's hosts triumphant go through the wave that drowns the foe. Praise we Christ, whose blood was shed, paschal victim, paschal bread; with sincerity and love eat we manna from above. 3 Mighty victim from above, conqu'ring by the pow'r of love; thou hast triumphed in the fight, thou hast brought us life and light. Now no more can death appal, now no more the grave enthral: thou hast opened paradise, and in thee thy saints shall rise. 4 Easter triumph, Easter joy, nothing now can this destroy; from sin's pow'r do thou set free souls new-born, O Lord, in thee. Hymns of glory and of praise, risen Lord, to thee we raise; holy Father, praise to thee, with the Spirit, ever be.

Author: J. M. Neale Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 16 hymnals Scripture: Acts 2:1-12 Lyrics: 1 Rejoice! the year upon its way has brought again this blessèd day when on the chosen of the Lord the Holy Spirit was outpoured. 2 That morning a rushing noise came like the tempest's sudden voice and mingled with th'apostles' pryer proclaimed aloud that God was there. 3 On each the fire descending stood in quiv'ring tongues’ similitude; from out the Father's light it came that beautiful and holy flame. 4 To all in ev'ry tongue they spoke; amazement in the crowd awoke, who mocked, as overcome with wine, those who were filled with power divine. 5 As then, O Lord, thou didst fulfill each holy heart to do thy will, so now do thou our sins forgive, and make the world in peace to live. 6 To God the Father, God the Son, and God the Spirit, praise be done; may Christ the Lord upon us pour the Spirit’s gift forevermore.

Author: Martin Luther; Richard Massie Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.8.7.4 Appears in 55 hymnals Scripture: Acts 2:24 Lyrics: 1 Christ Jesus lay in death's strong bands, For our offenses given; But now at God's right hand He stands And brings us life from heaven; Therefore let us joyful be And sing to God right thankfully Loud songs of hallelujah! Hallelujah! 2 It was a strange and dreadful strife When Life and Death contended; The victory remained with Life, The reign of Death was ended; Holy Scripture plainly saith That Death is swallowed up by Death, His sting is lost forever. Hallelujah! 3 Here the true Paschal Lamb we see, Whom God so freely gave us; He died on the accursed tree-- So strong His love!--to save us. See, His blood doth mark our door; Faith points to it, Death passes o'er, And Satan cannot harm us. Hallelujah! 4 So let us keep the festival Whereto the Lord invites us; Christ is Himself the Joy of all, The Sun that warms and lights us. By His grace He doth impart Eternal sunshine to the heart; The night of sin is ended. Hallelujah! 5 Then let us feast this Easter Day On Christ, the Bread of heaven; The Word of Grace hath purged away The old and evil leaven. Christ alone our souls will feed, He is our meat and drink indeed; Faith lives upon no other. Hallelujah! Amen. Topics: The Church Year Easter Used With Tune: CHRIST LAG IN TODESBANDEN
