first-begotten from the dead,
thou alone, our strong defender,
liftest up thy people's head.
Alleluia, alleluia, alleluia,
Jesu, true and living bread,
Jesu, true and living bread.
2 Here our humblest homage pay we,
here in loving reverence bow;
here for faith's discernment pray we,
lest we fail to know thee now.
Alleluia, alleluia, alleluia,
thou art here, we ask not how,
thou art here, we ask not how.
3 Though the lowliest form doth veil thee
as of old in Bethlehem,
here as there thine angels hail thee,
branch and flower of Jesse's stem.
Alleluia, alleluia, alleluia,
we in worship join with them,
we in worship join with them.
4 Paschal Lamb, thine off'ring, finished
once for all when thou wast slain,
in its fullness undiminished
shall for evermore remain,
Alleluia, alleluia, alleluia,
cleansing souls from ev'ry stain,
cleansing souls from ev'ry stain.
5 Life-imparting heav'nly manna,
stricken rock with streaming side,
heav'n and earth with loud hosanna
worship thee, the Lamb who died,

the Saviour promised long:
let every heart prepare a throne;
and every voice a song.
2 He comes, the prisoners to release
in Satan's bondage held;
the gates of brass before him burst,
the iron fetters yield.
3 He comes, the broken heart to bind,
the bleeding soul to cure;
and with the treasures of his grace
to enrich the humble poor.
4 Our glad hosannas, Prince of Peace,
your welcome shall proclaim;
and heaven's eternal arches ring
with your beloved name. Used With Tune: RICHMOND

The God of Abraham praise
Author: Thomas Olivers, 1725-1799 Meter: 6.6.8.4 D Appears in 466 hymnals Topics: Year A Easter 2 Lyrics: 1 The God of Abraham praise
who reigns enthroned above,
Ancient of everlasting Days,
and God of love:
Jehovah, great I AM,
by earth and heav'n confessed;
we bow and bless the sacred name,
for ever blest.
2 The God of Abraham praise,
at whose supreme command
from earth we rise, and seek the joys
at his right hand:
we all on earth forsake,
its wisdom, fame and pow'r;
and him our only portion make,
our shield and tow'r.
3 The God of Abraham praise,
whose all-sufficient grace
shall guide us all our happy days,
in all our ways:
he is our faithful friend;
he is our gracious God;
and he will save us to the end,
through Jesus' blood.
4 He by himself has sworn -
we on his oath depend -
we shall, on eagles' wings upborne,
to heav'n ascend:
we shall behold his face,
we shall his pow'r adore,
and sing the wonders of his grace
for evermore.
5 The whole triumphant host
give thanks to God on high;
'Hail, Father, Son and Holy Ghost!'
they ever cry:
Hail, Abraham's God and ours!
We join the heav'nly throng,
and celebrate with all our pow'rs
in endless song.

Jesus, these eyes have never seen
Author: Ray Palmer, 1808-1887 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 244 hymnals Topics: Year A Easter 2 Lyrics: 1 Jesus, these eyes have never seen
that radiant form of thine;
the veil of sense hangs dark between
thy blessed face and mine.

yet thou art oft with me;
and earth hath ne'er so dear a spot
as where I meet with thee.
3 Yet, though I have not seen, and still
must rest in faith alone,
I love thee, dearest Lord, and will,
unseen, but not unknown.
4 When death these mortal eyes shall seal,
and still this throbbing heart,
the rending veil shall thee reveal

What a friend we have in Jesus
Author: Joseph Medlicott Scriven, 1819-1886 Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 1,813 hymnals Topics: Year A Easter 2 Lyrics: 1 What a friend we have in Jesus,
all our sins and griefs to bear!
What a privilege to carry
ev'rything to him in prayer!
O what peace we often forfeit,
O what needless pain we bear,
all because we do not carry
ev'rything to God in prayer!
2 Have we trials and temptations?
Is there trouble anywhere?
We should never be discouraged:
take it to the Lord in prayer!
Can we find a friend so faithful,
who will all our sorrows share?
Jesus knows our ev'ry weakness -
take it to the Lord in prayer!
3 Are we weak and heavy-laden,
cumbered with a load of care?
Jesus only is our refuge,
take it to the Lord in prayer!
Do thy friends despise, forsake thee?
Take it to the Lord in prayer!
In his arms he'll take and shield thee,
thou wilt find a solace there. Scripture: 1 Peter 1:6 Used With Tune: WHAT A FRIEND (CONVERSE)
What a friend we have in Jesus
O for a Faith That Will Not Shrink
Author: W. H. Bathurst, 1796-1877 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 721 hymnals Topics: Easter 2 Lyrics: 1 O for a faith that will not shrink,
Though pressed by many a foe,
That will not tremble on the brink
Of any earthly woe,
2 That will not murmur nor complain
Beneath the chast'ning rod,
But in the hour of grief or pain
Will lean upon its God.
3 A faith that shines more bright and clear
When tempests rage without,
That, when in danger, knows no fear,
In darkness feels no doubt,
4 That bears unmoved the world’s dread frown,
Nor heeds its scornful smile,
That seas of trouble cannot drown,
Nor Satan’s arts beguile,
5 A faith that keeps the narrow way
Till life’s last hour is fled
And with a pure and heav'nly ray
Lights up a dying bed.
6 Lord, give us such a faith as this,
And then, whate’er may come,
We’ll taste e’en here the hallowed bliss
Of an eternal home.
Used With Tune: WOLVERHAMPTON
O for a Faith That Will Not Shrink
