Yes, the Redeemer rose

Meter: Irregular Appears in 230 hymnals Topics: Resurrection of Christ Lyrics: 1 Yes, the Redeemer rose; The Saviour left the dead; And o'er our hellish foes High rais'd his conqu'ring head. In wild dismay, The guards around Fall to the ground, And sink away. 2 Lo! the angelic bands In full assembly meet, To wait his high commands, And worship at his feet. Joyful they come, And wing their way From realms of day To Jesus' tomb. 3 Then back to heav'n thy fly, The joyful news to bear. Hark! as they soar on high, What music fills the air! Their anthems say: "Jesus, who bled Hath left the dead; He rose to-day." 4 Ye mortals, catch the sound, Redeem'd by him from hell; And send the echo round The globe on which you dwell, With Christ we rise, With Christ we reign, And empires gain Beyond the skies.

Pride and Death; or, The Vanity of Life and Riches

Appears in 45 hymnals Topics: Resurrection and death of Christ First Line: Why doth the Man of Riches grow Lyrics: 1 Why doth the Man of Riches grow To Insolence and Pride, To see his Wealth and Honours flow With ev'ry rising Tide? 2 [Why doth he treat the Poor with Scorn, Made of the self-same Clay, And boast as though his Flesh was born Of better Dust than they?] 3 Not all his Treasures can procure His Soul a short Reprieve, Redeem from Death one guilty Hour, Or make his Brother live. 4 [Life is a Blessing can't be sold, The Ransom is too high; Justice will ne'er be brib'd with Gold, That Man may never die.] 5 He sees the Brutish and the Wise, The Tim'rous and the Brave, Quit their Possessions, close their Eyes, And hasten to the Grave. 6 Yet 'tis his inward Thought and Pride, "My House shall ever stand; "And that my Name may long abide, "I'll give it to my Land." 7 Vain are his Thoughts, his Hopes are lost, How soon his Mem'ry dies! His Name is written in the Dust Where his own Carcase lies.] Pause. 8 This is the Folly of their Way; And yet their Sons, as vain, Approve the Words their Fathers say, And act their Works again. 9 Men void of Wisdom, and of Grace, If Honour raise them high, Live like the Beast, a thoughtless Race, And like the Beast they die. 10 [Laid in the Grave like silly Sheep, Death feeds upon them there, Till the last Trumpet breaks their Sleep In Terror and Despair.] Scripture: Psalm 49:6-14

Christ is God

Author: Robert Robinson Appears in 292 hymnals Topics: Christ Resurrection of; Christ Resurrection of First Line: Mighty God! while angels bless thee Lyrics: 1 Mighty God! while angels bless thee, May a mortal lisp thy name? Lord of men, as well as angels! Thou art every creature's theme: Lord of every land and nation Ancient of eternal days! Sounded through the wide creation Be thy just and awful praise. 2 For the grandeur of thy nature, Grand, beyond a seraph's thought; For the wonders of creation, Works with skill and kindness wrought; For thy providence, that governs Through thine empire's wide domain, Wings an angel, guides a sparrow; Blessed be thy gentle reign. 3 For thy rich, thy free redemption, Bright, though vailed in darkness long, Thought is poor, and poor expression; Who can sing that wondrous song? Brightness of thy Father's glory! Shall thy praise unuttered lie? Break, my tongue! such guilty silence, Sing the Lord who came to die: 4 From the highest throne of glory, To the cross of deepest woe, Came to ransom guilty captives! Flow, my praise! for ever flow: Re-ascend, immortal Saviour! Leave thy footstool, take thy throne; Thence return and reign for ever; Be the kingdom all thine own! Used With Tune: AUTUMN

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 dread 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 on high, Hell's fierce pow'rs beneath you lie; You have conquered in the fight, You have brought us life and light. Now no more can death appall, Now no more the grave enthrall; You have opened paradise, And in you your saints shall rise. 4 Easter triumph, Easter joy, This alone can sin destroy; From sin's pow'r, Lord, set us free, Newborn souls in you to be. Father, who the crown shall give, Savior, by whose death we live, Spirit, guide through all our days: Three in One, your name we praise.
