Come, You Faithful, Raise the Strain

Author: John of Damascus; John Mason Neale Hymnal: Voices United #165 (1996) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Topics: Epiphany 6 Year C; Easter 1 Year C Lyrics: 1 Come, you faithful, raise the strain of triumphant gladness: God has brought forth Israel into joy from sadness, loosed from Pharaoh's bitter yoke Jacob's sons and daughters, led them with unmoistened foot through the Red Sea waters. 2 'Tis the spring of souls today, Christ has burst his prison, and from three days' sleep in death as a sun has risen; all the winter of our sins, long and dark, is flying from his light, to whom we give laud and praise undying. 3 Now the queen of seasons, bright with the day of splendour, with the royal feast of feasts, comes its joy to render; comes to gladden faithful hearts, who with true affection welcome in unwearied strains Jesus' resurrection! 4 Neither could the gates of death, nor the tomb's dark portal, nor the watchers, nor the seal hold him as a mortal: for today amid his own he now stands, bestowing God's true peace which evermore passes human knowing.

Did e'er such love and sorrow meet, or thorns compose so rich a crown? 4 Were the whole realm of nature mine, that were a present far too small; Love so amazing, so divine, demands my soul, my life, my all.
