Come, you faithful, raise the strain
Author: St. John of Damascus (c. 675-c. 750); John Mason Neale (1818-1866) Hymnal: Church Hymnary (4th ed.) #414 (2005) Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.6.7.6 Topics: Christ Risen Resurrection and Exaltation Lyrics: 1 Come, you faithful, raise the strain
of triumphant gladness;
God has brought his 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 glad Christian hearts,
which, with true affection,
welcomes in unwearied strains
Jesus' resurrection.
4 Neither could the gates of death,
nor the grave's dark portal,
nor the watchers, nor the seal,
hold you as a mortal.
Here today amid your own
now you stand, bestowing
your own peace, which evermore
passes human knowing. Scripture: Exodus 14:15-22 Languages: English Tune Title: AVE VIRGO VIRGINUM

who wave their palms in triumph
and fire us for the fight.
For Christ the cross ascended
to save a world undone,

our full redemption won.

he lay a captive bound,
but at the hour appointed
he rose, a victor crowned;
and now, to heaven ascended,
he sits upon the throne
in glorious dominion,
his Father's and his own.

his sole-begotten Son:
and to the Holy Spirit --
the perfect Trinity.
