Christ Jesus lay in Death's Strong Bands

Author: Martin Luther; Richard Massie Hymnal: The Lutheran Hymnal #195 (1941) 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 life 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 doth mark 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! 5 Then let us feast this Easter Day On Christ, the Bread of heaven; The Word of Grace hath purged away The old and evil leaven. Christ alone our souls will feed, He is our meat and drink indeed; Faith lives upon no other. Hallelujah! Amen.
