Christ is alive! Let Christians sing

Author: Brian A. Wren, b. 1936 Hymnal: CPAM2000 #140 (2000) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Christ is alive! Let Christians sing. The cross stands empty to the sky. Let streets and homes with praises ring. Love, drowned in death, shall never die. 2 Christ is alive! No longer bound to distant years in Palestine, but saving, healing, here and now, and touching every place and time. 3 In every insult, rift and war, where colour, scorn or wealth divide, Christ suffers still, yet loves the more, and lives, where even hope has died. 4 Women and men, in age and youth, can feel the Spirit, hear the call, and find the way, the life, the truth, revealed in Jesus, freed for all. 5 Christ is alive, and comes to bring good news to this and every age, till earth and sky and ocean ring with joy, with justice, love and praise.

Come, let us with our Lord arise

Author: Charles Wesley, 1707-1788 Hymnal: CPAM2000 #142 (2000) Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Come, let us with our Lord arise, our Lord, who made both earth and skies: who died to save the world he made, and rose triumphant from the dead; he rose, the Prince of life and peace, and stamped the day for ever his. 2 This is the day the Lord has made, that all may see his love displayed, may feel his resurrection's power, and rise again, to fall no more, in perfect righeousness renewed, and filled with all the life of God. 3 Then let us render him his own, with solemn prayer approach his throne, with meekness hear the gospel word, with thanks his dying love record, our joyful hearts and voices raise, and fill his courts with songs of praise. 4 Honour and praise to Jesus pay throughout his consecrated day; be all in Jesu's praise imployed, nor leave a single moment void; with utmost care the time improve, and only breathe his praise and love.
