CHRIST'S RESURRECITON AND ASCENSION




All hail! the glorious morn,
That saw our Saviour rise;
With victory bright adorned ;
And triumph in his eyes;
Ye saints: extol your risen Lord,
And sing his praise with sweet accord.


Behold the Lamb of God,
Th' atoning sacrifice,
Sustains the dreadful load
Of man's iniquities;
Death, sin, and hell, our cruel foes,
All vanquished, fell when Jesus rose.


At once the prison doors,
Death's awful gates, expand;
Their captive they restore,
At God's supreme command:
How blest the hour, awake our joys,
Hell's fatal power, lo, he destroys.


The conqueror ascends,
In triumph to the skies;
Celestial hosts attend,
To crown his victories:
Hark! they proclaim his glorious name;
And heaven resounds Immanuel's fame.


Now to the throne above,
Let ev'ry saint draw near;
There dwells incarnate love,
Grace sits triumphant there:
See mercy smile, e'en on that throne,
Where once did wrath and justice frown.


All praise be to the Lamb,
Who offered up his blood;
Hosannas to his name,
That for our ransom stood;
In notes sublime with joy we sing,
The love divine of Christ our King.
