Christ Is Alive
Author: Brian Wren Hymnal: Baptist Hymnal 1991 #173 (1991) Meter: 8.8.8.8 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 ev'ry place and time.
3. Not throned afar, remotely high,
Untouched, unmoved by human pains,
But daily, in the midst of life,
Our Savior in the God-head reigns.
4. In ev'ry insult, rift, and war,
Where color, scorn, or wealth divide,
Christ suffers still, yet loves the more,
And lives, where even hope has died.
5. Christ is alive! and comes to bring
Good news to this and ev'ry age,
Till earth and sky and ocean ring
With joy, with justice, love, and praise. Scripture: Matthew 28:6 Languages: English Tune Title: TRURO

Sweet is the work, my God, my King
Author: Isaac Watts, 1674-1748 Hymnal: Service Book and Hymnal of the Lutheran Church in America #183 (1958) Lyrics: 1 Sweet is the work, my God, my King,
To praise thy Name, give thanks and sing,
To show thy love by morning light,
And talk of all thy truth at night.
2 Sweet is the day of sacred rest;
No mortal cares shall seize my breast;
My heart shall triumph in my Lord,
And bless his works, and bless his word.
3 And I shall share a glorious part
When grace hath well refined my heart;
When doubts and fears no more remain
To break my inward peace again.
4 Then shall I see and hear and know
All I desired or wished below;
And every power find sweet employ
In that eternal world of joy. Topics: The Church Worship - The Lord's Day Languages: English Tune Title: TRURO

Lift Up Your Heads, Ye Mighty Gates
Author: Georg Weissel; Catherine Winkworth Hymnal: Rejoice in the Lord #185 (1985) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics:
1 Lift up your heads, ye mighty gates;
behold, the King of Glory waits;
the King of kings is drawing near;
the Savior of the world is here!
2 O blest the land, the city blest,
where Christ the Ruler is confess'd!
O happy hearts and happy homes
to whom this King in triumph comes!
3 Fling wide the portals of your heart;
make it a temple, set apart
from earthly use for heav'n's employ,
adorned with prayer and love and joy.
4 Redeemer, come! We open wide
our hearts to thee; here, Lord abide!
Let us thy inner presence feel;
thy grace and love in us reveal.
5 Thy Holy Spirit lead us on
until our glorious goal is won;
eternal praise, eternal fame
be offered, Savior, to thy name!

I know that my Redeemer lives
Our Lord is risen from the dead
Author: Charles Wesley; John Wesley Hymnal: The Hymnal #187 (1916) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics:
Our Lord is risen from the dead;
Our Jesus is gone up on high;
The powers of hell are captive led,
Dragged to the portals of the sky.
There his triumphal chariot waits,
And angels chant the solemn lay:
"Lift up your heads, ye heavenly gates,"
Ye everlasting doors, give way.
Loose all your bars of massy light,
And wide unfold the radiant scene;
He claims those mansions as his right;
Receive the King of glory in.
Who is the King of glory, Who?
The Lord that all his foes o'ercame,
The world, sin, death, and hell o'erthrew;
And Jesus is the Conqueror's name.
Lo! His triumphal chariot waits,
And angels chant the solemn lay:
"Lift up your heads, ye heavenly gates,"
Ye everlasting doors, give way.
173
Who is the King of glory, Who?
The Lord, of boundless power possessed,
The King of saints and angels too,
God, over all, for ever blest.
