O Lord of all, with us abide

Representative Text

1 O Lord of all, with us ab­ide,
Alle, al­le­luia!
In this our joy­ful East­er­tide;
Alle, al­le­luia!
From ev­ery wea­pon death can wield,
Thine own re­deemed for­ev­er shield.
All praise be Thine, O ris­en Lord,
Alle, al­le­luia!
From death to end­less life re­stored;
Alle, al­le­luia!
All praise to God the Fa­ther be,
And Ho­ly Ghost eternally.

Refrain:
Hark! the an­gels prais­es sing
To Je­sus, our tri­umph­ant king.

2 While He, the King, the migh­ty King,
Alle, al­le­luia!
Despoiling death of all its sting,
Alle, al­le­luia!
And tramp­ling down the pow­er of night,
Brings forth His ran­somed saints to light;
The pains of hell are loosed at last;
Alle, al­le­luia!
The days of mourn­ing now are past,
Alle, al­le­luia!
An an­gel robed in light hath said,
"The Lord is ris­en from the dead." [Refrain]

In some hymnals, the editors noted that a hymn's author is unknown to them, and so this artificial "person" entry is used to reflect that fact. Obviously, the hymns attributed to "Author Unknown" "Unknown" or "Anonymous" could have been written by many people over a span of many centuries. Go to person page >
