Lyrics: [Refrain:] Hail, glad festival day! Blest day to be hallowed for ever, day wherein Christ arose, breaking the kingdom of death. [Easter:] 1 Lo, the fair beauty of earth, from the death of the winter arising, every good gift of the year now with its Saviour returns. [Refrain] 2 He who was nailed to the cross is God and the ruler of all things; all things created on earth worship the maker of all. [Refrain] 3 Mourning they laid you to rest, the author of life and creation; treading the pathway of death, life now bestowing on all. [Refrain] 4 God of all pity and power, let your word be assured to the doubting: light on the third day returns; rise, Son of God, from the tomb! [Refrain] [Ascension:] 1 Christ in his triumph ascends, who had vanquished the devil's dominion; bright is the woodland with leaves, brilliant the meadows with flowers. [Refrain] 2 Daily the loveliness grows, adorned with glory of blossom; heaven its gates now unbars, flinging its increase of light. [Refrain] 3 Jesus, the health of the word, enlighten our minds, great Redeemer, Son of the Father supreme, only-begotten of God! [Refrain] 4 Praise to the giver of good! O Lover and Author of concord, pour out your balm on our days; order our days in your peace. [Refrain] [Pentecost:] 1 Lo, in the likeness of fire, on those who await his appearing, he whom the Lord foretold suddenly, swiftly descends: [Refrain] 2 Forth to the faithful he comes with sevenfold mystical offering, pouring on all human souls infinite riches of God. [Refrain] 3 Hark! for in myriad tongues Christ's own, his chosen apostles, preach to the ends of the earth Christ and his wonderful works. [Refrain] 4 Praise to the Spirit of life, all praise to the fount of our being, light that now lightens all, life that in all now abides. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: SALVE, FESTA DIES

See, the Conqueror Mounts in Triumph

Author: Christopher Wordsworth, 1807-85 Hymnal: Christian Worship (1993) #174 (1993) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Topics: Ascension; Ascension First Line: See the conqu'ror mounts in triumph Lyrics: 1 See, the conqu'ror mounts in triumph; See the King in royal state, Riding on the clouds, his chariot, To his heav'nly palace gate. Hark! The choirs of angel voices Joyful alleluias sing, And the portals high are lifted To receive their heav'nly King. 2 Who is this that comes in glory With the trump of jubilee? Lord of battles, God of armies, He has gained the victory. He who on the cross did suffer, He who from the grave arose, He has vanquished sin and Satan; He by death has crushed his foes. 3 While he lifts his hands in blessing, He is parted from his friends; While their eager eyes behold him, He upon the clouds ascends. He who walked with God and pleased him, Preaching truth and doom to come, He, our Enoch, is translated To his everlasting home. 4 He has raised our human nature On the clouds to God's right hand; There we sit in heav'nly places, There with him in glory stand. Jesus reigns, adored by angels; Man with God is on the throne. By our mighty Lord's ascension We by faith behold our own. Languages: English Tune Title: REX GLORIAE

Lacey Hymnal: The Hymnal #184 (1916) Meter: 10.10 with refrain Topics: The Ascension Day First Line: Hail! festal day! to endless ages known Lyrics: Hail! festal day! to endless ages known, When God ascended to his starry throne. Now with the Lord of new and heav'nly birth, His gifts return to grace the springing earth. Now glows the earth with painted flowers' array, And warmer light unbars the gates of day. Now Christ, from gloomy hell, comes triumphing, And field and grove with clover and leafage spring. The reign of death o'erthrown, he mounts on high, Sent forth with joyous praise from sea and sky. 170 Loose now the captives, loose the prison door, The fallen, from the deep, to light restore. A countless people, from death's fetters free, Own thee Redeemer, join, and follow thee. Creator and Redeemer, Christ our Light! The One begotten of the Father's might; Coequal, Coeternal, thou to whom The kingdom of the world decreed shall come; Thou, looking on our race in darkness laid, To rescue man, true Man thyself wast made.
