Author: John M. Neale; St. John of Damascus Hymnal: Book of Worship with Hymns and Tunes #263 (1899) 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, listening to His accents,
May hear, so calm and plain,
His own "All hail!" and, hearing,
May raise the victor-strain.
3 Now let the heavens be joyful,
Let earth her song begin,
The round world keep high triumph,
And all that is therein;
Let all things seen and unseen
Their notes of gladness blend,
For Christ the Lord is risen,
Our Joy that hath no end.
Amen. Topics: Christ Conqueror; Christ Joy of believers in; Christ The Life; Christ Our Passover; Christ Resurrection of; Christ Triumph of; Death Conquered; Easter Languages: English Tune Title: ROTTERDAM
