(Christmas)
Rejoice, rejoice this happy morn,
A Savior unto us is born,
The Christ, the Lord of glory!
His lowly birth at Bethlehem
The angels from on high proclaim
And sing redemption's story!
My soul,
Extol
God's great favor;
Bless him ever
For salvation;
Give him praise and adoration!
(Easter)
He is arisen! Glorious word!
Now reconciled is God, my Lord;
The gates of heav'n are open.
My Jesus did triumphant die,
And Satan's arrows broken lie,
Destroyed hell's fiercest weapon.
Oh, hear
What cheer!
Christ victorious,
Rising glorious,
Life is giving.
He was dead but now is living!
