Zion's Harp ‎#8

8. Arise, my song to Christ the King

1 Arise, my song to Christ the King,
From whom the fount of life did spring
When from the grave He did arise
To sever death’s deceiving ties! Hallelujah!

2 Earth trembled with His wondrous might;
From heaven came an angel bright.
The stone was moved from its repose
When Jesus Christ from death arose. Hallelujah!

3 And clothed in glory, bright and fair,
Which He eternally did wear,
He leads beneath His Shepherd’s rod
Freed pris’ners to the House of God. Hallelujah!

4 The mighty foe still seeks in vain
Us in His power to retain.
The blood of Jesus makes us free,
And justified by faith are we. Hallelujah!

5 The victory He has achieved
For all who have in Christ believed.
Flesh, Satan, death have lost their sting.
Oh, come and choose this heav’nly King! Hallelujah!

6 We know that Satan’s yoke is shame,
And strive to work in Jesus’ name;
Reborn by faith, we go our way,
And sin we never shall obey. Hallelujah!

7 As Jesus died for all our sin,
So all His own new life begin;
Through baptism we renewed shall be,
And clothed in immortality. Hallelujah!

8. Thus by this Spirit-birth may we,
Lord Jesus, have a part in Thee
And show ourselves obedient, Lord,
In love and faith unto Thy Word. Hallelujah!
