Christ Jesus Lay in Death's Strong Bands

Author: Martin Luther; Richard Massie Hymnal: Psalms and Hymns to the Living God #292 (2023) Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.8.7.4 Lyrics: 1 Christ Jesus lay in death’s strong bands, for our offenses given; but now at God’s right hand He stands and brings us light from heaven. Therefore let us joyful be and sing to God right thankfully loud songs of hallelujah. Hallelujah! 2 It was a strange and dreadful strife when life and death contended; the victory remained with life, the reign of death was ended. Holy Scripture plainly saith that death is swallowed up by death; his sting is lost forever. Hallelujah! 3 Here the true Paschal Lamb we see, whom God so freely gave us; He died on the accursed tree- so strong His love to save us. See His blood upon our door; faith points to it, death passes o'er, and Satan cannot harm us. Hallelujah! 4 So let us keep the festival whereto the Lord invites us; Christ is Himself the Joy of all, the Sun that warms and lights us. By His grace He doth impart eternal sunshine to the heart; the night of sin is ended. Hallelujah!
