On thee the high and lowly before th'eternal throne sing "Holy, holy, holy" to the great Thee-in-One. 2 On thee at the creation, the light first had its birth, on thee for our salvation Christ rose from depths of earth; on thee our Lord victorious, the Spirit sent from heav'n, and thus on thee most glorious, a triple light was giv'n. 3 New graces ever gaining from this our day of rest, we reach the rest remaining to spirits of the blest. To Holy Ghost be praises, to Father and to Son; the church her voice upraises to thee, blest Three-in-One. Used With Tune: CRÜGER

Hymn 44 Part 1

Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 655 hymnals Scripture: Matthew 28:6 First Line: He dies! the friend of sinners dies! Lyrics: He dies! the friend of sinners dies! Lo! Salem's daughters weep around; A solemn darkness veils the skies; A sudden trembling shakes the ground. Come, saints, and drop a tear or two For him who groaned beneath your load: He shed a thousand drops for you, A thousand drops of richer blood. Here's love and grief beyond degree, The Lord of glory dies for men! But lo! what sudden joys we see; Jesus the dead revives again! The rising God forsakes the tomb! The tomb in vain forbids his rise; Cherubic legions guard him home, And shout him welcome to the skies Break off your fears, ye saints, and tell How high our great Deliv'rer reigns; Sing how he spoiled the hosts of hell, And led the monster Death in chains. Say, "Live for ever, wondrous King! Born to redeem, and strong to save; Then ask the monster, "Where's thy sting?" And, "Where's thy vict'ry, boasting Grave?"

Help us, O Lord! descend and bring Salvation from thy throne. 4 Blest be the Lord, who comes to men With messages of grace; Who comes, in God his Father's name, To save our sinful race. 5 Hosanna! in the highest strains The church on earth can raise; The highest heavens, in which he reigns, Shall give him nobler praise.

Comfort to such who seek a risen JESUS

Appears in 158 hymnals Scripture: Matthew 28:5-6 First Line: Ye humble Souls that seek the LORD Lyrics: 1 Ye humble Souls that seek the LORD, Chase all your Fears away; And bow with Pleasure down to see The Place where JESUS lay, 2 Thus low the Lord of Life was brought; Such Wonders Love can do; Thus cold in Death, that Bosom lay, Which throbb'd and bled for you. 3 A Moment give a Loose to Grief, Let grateful Sorrows rise; And wash the bloody Stains away, With Torrents from your Eyes 4 Then dry your Tears, and tune your songs, The Saviour lives again; Not all the Gates and Bars of Death The Conq'ror could detain. 5 High o'er th' angelic Bands he rears His once dishonour'd Head; And tho' unnumber'd Years he reigns, Who dwelt among the Dead, 6 With Joy, like his, shall every Saint His empty Tomb survey; Then rise, with his ascending LORD, To Realms of endless Day.
