The day of resurrection
Author: John M. Neale; St. John of Damascus Appears in 538 hymnals Topics: Christ Resurrection of 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. Used With Tune: ROTTERDAM

On clouds of glory seated.

The dead which they contained before;
Prepare, my soul, to meet Him.

At the last trumpet's sounding,
Caught up to meet Him in the skies,
With joy their Lord surrounding;
No gloomy fears their souls dismay;
His presence sheds eternal day
On those prepared to meet Him.
3 But sinners, filled with guilty fears,
Behold His wrath prevailing,
For they shall rise, and find their tears
And sighs are unavailing;
The day of grace is past and gone;
They trembling stand before the throne,
All unprepared to meet Him.
4 Thou who hast died and yet dost live,
To me impart Thy merit;
My pardon seal, my sins forgive,
And cleanse me by Thy Spirit.
Beneath Thy cross I view the day
When heaven and earth shall pass away,
And thus prepare to meet Thee.

earth's joys grow dim, its glories pass away.
Change and decay in all around I see -
you never change, O Lord: abide with me!

what but your grace can foil the tempter's power?
Who like yourself my guide and strength can be?
Through cloud and sunshine, Lord, abide with me!

ills have no weight and tears no bitterness.
Where is death's sting? Where, grave, your victory?
I triumph still if you abide with me.

shine through the gloom and point me to the skies!
Heaven's morning breaks and earth's vain shadows flee:
in life, in death, O Lord, abide with me! Scripture: Luke 24:29 Used With Tune: EVENTIDE
Abide with me, fast falls the eventide
