Woman, Weeping in the Garden
Author: Dan Damon Meter: 8.7.8.7 Appears in 3 hymnals Scripture: John 20:1-18 Lyrics: 1 Woman, weeping in the garden,
who has pushed the stone aside?
Who has taken Jesus' body;
Jesus Christ, the crucified?
2 Woman, waiting in the garden,
after men have come and gone;
after angels give their witness,
silently you watch the dawn.
3 Woman, walking in the garden,
Jesus takes you by surprise;
when the gardener calls you, "Mary!"
faith and joy meet in your eyes.
4 Woman, weeping in the garden,
weep for joy, for you have seen
Jesus, the Messiah, risen;
Christ, of whom the prophets dream.
5 Woman, dancing from the garden,
find the others and proclaim
Christ is risen as he promised;
tell the world he knew your name! Topics: God Known in Jesus Christ Resurrection and Exaltation; Christian Year: Easter; Jesus Christ; Jesus Christ: Resurrection; Women Used With Tune: KAKIS

Hail the Day that Sees Him Rise
Come, You Faithful, Raise the Strain
Author: John of Damascus (675?-749?); John Mason Neale Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 380 hymnals Scripture: John 20:1-14 Lyrics: 1 Come, you faithful, raise the strain
Of triumphant gladness:
God has brought his Israel
Into joy from sadness;
Loosed from Pharaoh’s bitter yoke
Jacob’s sons and daughters;
Led them with unmoistened foot
Through the Red Sea waters.
2 'Tis the spring of souls today;
Christ has burst his prison,
And from three days' sleep in death
As a sun has risen;
All the winter of our sins,
Long and dark, is flying
From his light, to whom we give
Laud and praise undying.
3 Now the queen of seasons, bright
With the day of splendor,
With the royal feast of feasts,
Comes its joy to render;
Comes to glad Jerusalem,
Who with true affection
Welcome in unwearied strains
Jesus' resurrection.
4 Neither might the gates of death,
Nor the tomb’s dark portal,
Nor the watchers, nor the seal,
Hold you as a mortal:
But today amid the twelve
You did stand, bestowing
That your peace, which evermore
Passes human knowing.
5 "Alleluia!" now we cry
To our King immortal,
Who, triumphant, burst the bars
Of the tomb’s dark portal;
"Alleluia!" with the Son
God the Father praising;
"Alleluia!" yet again
To the Spirit raising.
Amen. Topics: Christian Year Easter Day Used With Tune: AVE VIRGO VIRGINUM

that the lamb is King of kings:
alleluia!
5 Now he bids us tell abroad
how the lost may be restored,
how the penitent forgiven,
how we too may enter heaven:
alleluia!

all your ransomed people feed!

let us sing by night and day:

let me thy loving servant be,
and taste thy promised rest.

amid the battle's strife;
in all my pain and misery
be thou my health and life.
4 Lord Jesus, think on me,
nor let me go astray;
through darkness and perplexity
point thou the heavenly way.
5 Lord Jesus, think on me,
when flows the tempest high:
when on doth rush the enemy
O Saviour, be thou nigh.

I may the eternal brightness see,

A safe stronghold our God is still
Author: Thomas Carlyle (1795-1881); Martin Luther (1483-1546) Meter: 8.7.8.7.6.6.6.6.7 Appears in 68 hymnals Scripture: John 20:10-18 Lyrics: 1 A safe stronghold our God is still,
a trusty shield and weapon;
he'll keep us clear from all the ill
that hath us now o'ertaken.
The ancient prince of hell
hath risen with purpose fell;
strong mail of craft and power
he weareth in this hour;
on earth is not his fellow.
2 With force of arms we nothing can,
full soon were we down-ridden;
but for us fights the proper Man,
whom God himself hath bidden.
Ask ye who is this same?
Christ Jesus is his name,
the Lord Sabaoth's Son;
he, and no other one,
shall conquer in the battle.
3 And were this world all devils o'er,
and watching to devour us,
we lay it not to heart so sore;
they cannot overpower us.
And let the prince of ill
look grim as e'er he will,
he harms us not a whit;
for why? his doom is writ;
a word shall quickly slay him.
4 God's word, for all their craft and force,
one moment will not linger,
but, spite of hell, shall have its course;
'tis written by his finger.
And, though they take our life,
goods, honour, children, wife,
yet is their profit small;
these things shall vanish all:
the city of God remaineth. Topics: Life in Christ Christ Risen - Reign and Priesthood; Conflict; God Protection of; Victory Used With Tune: EIN' FESTE BURG

Christ Is Alive!
Author: Brian Wren, 1936- Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 54 hymnals Scripture: John 20:2 First Line: Christ is alive! Let Christians sing Lyrics: 1 Christ is alive! Let Christians sing.
The cross stands empty to the sky.
Let streets and homes with praises ring.
Love, drowned in death, shall never die.
2 Christ is alive! No longer bound
to distant years in Palestine,
but saving, healing, here and now,
and touching every place and time.
3 In every insult, rift, and war,
where color, scorn, or wealth divide,
Christ suffers still, yet loves the more,
and lives, where even hope has died.
4 Women and men, in age and youth,
can feel the Spirit, hear the call,
and find the way, the life, the truth,
revealed in Jesus, freed for all.
5 Christ is alive and comes to bring
good news to this and every age;
till earth and sky and ocean ring
with joy, with justice, love, and praise. Used With Tune: TRURO
