Day of Wonder, Day of Gladness

Author: B. H. Hall Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 25 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Day of wonder, day of gladness, Hail thy ever glorious light! Gone is sorrow, gone is sadness, Ended is the gloomy night! Listen to the angel’s story,-- Cast away all dark and dread; Give to God the Father glory! Christ is risen from the dead! 2 In the triumph of this hour, Jubilant shall swell the song; Unto Jesus, honor, power, Blessing, victory belong. Scattered are the clouds of error, Sin and hell are captive led; E’en the grave is free from terror, Christ is risen from the dead! 3 Every people, every nation, Soon shall hear the gladsome sound; Joyous tidings of salvation, Borne to earth’s remotest bound. Then shall rise, in tones excelling, Praise for grace so freely shed; And the Easter hymn be swelling, Christ is risen from the dead! Amen. Topics: Easter Used With Tune: AUTUMN

While with Ceaseless Course the Sun

Author: John Newton, 1725-1807 Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Appears in 591 hymnals Lyrics: 1 While with ceaseless course the sun Hasted through the former year, Many souls their race have run, Never more to meet us here: Fixed in an eternal state, They have done with all below: We a little longer wait, But how little, none can know. 2 As the winged arrow flies Speedily, the mark to find; As the lightning from the skies Darts, and leaves no trace behind; Swiftly thus our fleeting days Bear us down life's rapid stream: Upward, Lord, our spirits raise; All below is but a dream. 3 Thanks for mercies past receive, Pardon of our sins renew; Teach us henceforth how to live With eternity in view. Bless Thy Word to young and old; Fill us with a Saviour's love; And when life's short tale is told, May we dwell with Thee above. Amen. Topics: New Year Used With Tune: ELTHAM

Author: William Augustus Muhlenberg, 1796-1877 Meter: 8.7.8.7 Appears in 371 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Saviour, who Thy flock art feeding, With the Shepherd's kindest care, All the feeble gently leading, While the lambs Thy bosom share; 2 Now, these little ones receiving, Fold them in Thy gracious arm; There, we know, Thy word believing, Only there, secure from harm. 3 Never, from Thy pasture roving, Let them be the lion's prey; Let Thy tenderness, so loving, Keep them through life's dangerous way. 4 Then within Thy fold eternal Let them find a resting-place: Feed in pastures ever vernal, Drink the rivers of Thy grace. Amen. Topics: Worship Used With Tune: BROCKLESBURY

In Death's Strong Grasp the Saviour Lay

Author: Martin Luther, 1483-1546 Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.8.7 Appears in 21 hymnals Lyrics: 1 In Death's strong grasp the Saviour lay, For our offenses given: But now the Lord is risen to-day, And brings us life from heaven: And therefore let us all rejoice And praise our God with cheerful voice, And sing loud Hallelujahs. 2 No son of man could conquer death, Such evil sin had wrought us; For innocence dwelt not on earth, And therefore Death had brought us Into this thraldom from of old, And ever grew more strong and bold, His shadow lay athwart us. 3 But Jesus Christ, God's only Son, Has come for our salvation. The cause of death he has undone, And stopped his devastation; Christ ruined all his right and claim, And left him nothing but the name; His sting is lost forever. 4 It was a strange and dreadful strife, When life and death contended: The victory remained with life, The reign of death was ended; For Holy Scripture plainly saith, That death is swallowed up by death, And put to shame forever. 5 Here the true Paschal Lamb we see, Whom God so freely gave us; He died on the accurséd tree, So strong His love! to save us: The atoning blood now marks our door, Faith points to it, death passes o'er, He never more can harm us. 6 So let us keep the festival, Whereto the Lord invites us; Christ is Himself the Joy of all, The Sun which warms and lights us: And by His grace He doth impart Eternal sunshine to the heart; The night of sin is ended. 7 Then let us feast this Easter-day On the true Bread of heaven; The Word of grace hath purged away The old and wicked leaven: For Christ alone our souls will feed, He is our meat and drink indeed; Faith lives upon no other.

We all Believe in One True God

Author: Martin Luther, 1483-1546 Meter: Irregular Appears in 26 hymnals Lyrics: 1 We all believe in one true God, Maker of all earth and heaven; The Father, who to us in love Hath the claim of children given. He in soul and body feeds us, All we want His hand provides us, Through all snares and perils leads us, Watches that no harm betides us; He cares for us by day and night, All things are governed by His might. 2 And we believe in Jesus Christ, His own Son, our Lord, possessing An equal Godhead, throne and might, Through whom comes the Father's blessing; Conceived of the Holy Spirit, Born of Mary, virgin mother! That lost man might inherit Made true Man, our elder Brother, Was crucified by sinful men, And raised by God to life again. 3 Also the Holy Ghost we own, With sweet grace and comfort giveth, And with the Father and the Son In eternal glory liveth; Who the Christian church doth even Keep in unity of spirit; Sins are verily forgiven Through the blest Redeemer's merit; All flesh shall rise again, and we Shall live with God eternally. Amen. Topics: Trinity Used With Tune: VI TRO PÅ EN ALLSMÄKTIG GUD
