Come, Ye Faithful, Raise the Strain

Author: John of Damascus Hymnal: HOoS1926 #131 (1926) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Lyrics: 1 Come, ye faithful, raise the strain Of triumphant gladness; God hath brought his Israel Into joy from sadness; 'Tis the spring of souls today: Christ has burst His prison, And, from three days' sleep in death, As a sun hath risen. 2 All the winter of our sins, Long and dark, is flying From His light, to whom we give Laud and praise undying. Neither might the gates of death, Nor the tomb's dark portal, Nor the waters, nor the seal, Hold Thee as a mortal. 3 But to-day amidst Thine own Thou didst stand, bestowing That Thy peace, which evermore Passeth human knowing. Come, ye faithful, raise the strain Of triumphant gladness; God hath brought His Israel Into joy from sadness. Amen.

Author: Martin Luther Hymnal: HOoS1926 #134 (1926) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.8.7 Lyrics: 1 In death's strong grasp the Saviour lay, For our offenses given: But, lo, the Lord is ris'n today, And brings us life from heaven: Now therefore let us all rejoice And praise our God with cheerful voice, And sing loud hallelujahs. 2 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. Th'atoning blood now marks our door, Faith points to it, death passes o'er, He nevermore can harm us. 3 So let us keep the festival Whereto the Lord invites us; Christ is Himself the Joy of all, The Sun which warms and lights us: And by His grace He doth impart Eternal sunshine to the heart; The night of sin is ended. Hallelujah! 4 Then let us feast this Easter day On the true Bread of heaven; The Word of grade hath purged away The old and wicked leaven: For Christ alone our souls will feed, He is our meat and drink indeed; Faith lives upon no other.

Bought with a price, we now are Thine, And known of Thee, O Love divine!
