Whom your tears in death were mourning, welcome with your smiles returning. Let your alleluias rise! 2 Raise your weary eyelids, Mary -- see him living evermore; see his countenance so gracious, see the wounds for you he bore. All the glory of the morning pales before those wounds redeeming. Let your alleluias rise! 3 Life is yours for ever, Mary -- for your light is come once more and the strength of death is broken; now your songs of joy outpour. Ended now the night of sorrow, love has brought the blessed morrow. Let your alleluias rise.

Oh, send it forth o'er all the earth, To purge unrighteous leaven And cleanse all hearts for heaven. 3 Your Word, a wondrous star, supplies True guidance when we need it; It points to Christ and so makes wise All simple hearts that heed it; Let not its light e'er sink in night, But keep it brightly burning, And fill our deepest yearning.

O Death, Where Is Thy Cruel Sting

Author: Justus Gesenius; Geo. Weissel Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.8.7 Appears in 7 hymnals First Line: O death, where is thy cruel sting? Lyrics: 1 O death, where is thy cruel sting? O grave, where is thy power? What harm to us can Satan bring? Why need we fear or cower? All thanks to God who won the fight And saved us from our wretched plight Thro' Jesus Christ, our Savior. 2 How mightily the serpent strove When Christ with him contended! Thro' craftiness awhile he throve, But now his rule is ended. For tho' he bruised the Savior's heel, He yet no mortal thrust could deal; His head is bruised and trodden. 3 He lives, who by the foe was slain And held awhile in prison; His members now shall freedom gain, Since He, their Head, is risen. If heed unto His Word they give, Tho' they were dead, yet shall they live; Nor death nor grave an hold them. 4 If daily we with Christ arise Thro' faith and true repentance, Then may we calmly close our eyes And laugh to scorn death's sentence; For death is shorn of all its pow'rs, While peace and pardon now are ours, Eternal life and glory. 5 Behold the spoils that we possess, For which the Lord has striven: Forgiveness, peace and righteousness, Eternal life in heaven. So here we now with joy abide Till, in the body glorified, We dwell with Him forever. Topics: The Church Year Easter Used With Tune: DECIUS Text Sources: Tr. Composite
