Christ Jesus lay in death’s strong bands

Author: Richard Massie, 1800-87; Martin Luther, 1483-1546 Hymnal: Together in Song #364 (1999) Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.8.7.4 Lyrics: 1 Christ Jesus lay in death’s strong bands for our offences given; but now at God’s right hand he stands and brings us light from heaven: let us then with joy adore and thank our God for evermore, and sing loud hallelujahs. 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: Stripped of power, no more it reigns, an empty form alone remains: death's sting is gone forever. Hallelujah! 3 So let us keep the festival our Lord himself invites us; Christ is the Lamb, the joy of all, the sun that warms and lights us; through the glory of his grace all darkness must today give place, the night of sin is ended. Hallelujah! 4 Then let us feast this holy day on the true bread of heaven. The word of grace has purged away the old and wicked leaven. Christ alone our souls can feed, he is our food and drink indeed, faith lives upon no other. Hallelujah!

The victory remained with life, the reign of death is ended. So the scripture makes it plain that death by death’s own sword is slain. Its sting is lost forever. Hallelujah! 3 Then let us keep this feast today that God has freely given. The word of grace has swept away the old and evil leaven. Christ today will meet his own and faith will feed on him alone; the living bread of heaven. Hallelujah!
