Christ Jesus Lay in Death's Strong Bands
Author: Martin Luther, 1483-1546; Richard Massie, 1800-1887 Hymnal: Christian Worship #440 (2021) Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.8.7.4 Scripture: Exodus 12:23 Lyrics: 1 Christ Jesus lay in death’s strong bands
for our offenses given;
but now at God’s right hand he stands
and brings us life from heaven.
Therefore let us joyful be
and sing to God right thankfully
loud songs of alleluia!
Alleluia, alleluia!
2 No son of man could conquer death,
such ruin sin had wrought us.
No innocence was found on earth,
and therefore death had brought us
into bondage from of old
and ever grew more strong and bold
and held us as its captive.
Alleluia, alleluia!
3 Christ Jesus, God's own Son, came down,
his people to deliver;
destroying sin, he took the crown
from death's pale brow forever.
Stripped of pow'r, no more it reigns;
an empty form alone remains;
its sting is lost forever.
Alleluia, alleluia!
4 It was a strange and dreadful strife
when life and death contended.
The victory remained with life,
the reign of death was ended.
Holy Scripture plainly saith
that death is swallowed up by death;
disgraced, it lies defeated.
Alleluia, alleluia!
5 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.
See, his blood now marks our door;
faith points to it; death passes o'er,
and Satan cannot harm us.
Alleluia, alleluia!
6 So let us keep the festival
to which the Lord invites us;
Christ is himself the joy of all,
the sun that warms and lights us.
Now his grace to us imparts
eternal sunshine to our hearts;
the night of sin is ended.
Alleluia, alleluia!
7 Then let us feast this Easter day
on Christ, the bread of heaven;
the Word of grace has purged away
the old and evil leaven.
Christ alone our souls will feed;
he is our meat and drink indeed;
faith lives upon no other!

2 It was a strange and dreadful strife
when life and death contended.
The victory remained with life,

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.

Author: John Mason Neale (1818-1866) Hymnal: Common Praise (1998) #214 (1998) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Scripture: Exodus 12:1-14 Lyrics: 1 The Lamb's high banquet called to share,
arrayed in garments white and fair,
the Red Sea past, we long to sing
to Jesus our triumphant king.
2 Upon the altar of the cross,
his body hath redeemed our loss;
and, tasting of his precious blood,
our life is hid with him in God.
3 Protected in the paschal night
from the destroying angel's might,
in triumph went the ransomed free
from Pharaoh's cruel tyranny.
4 Now Christ our passover is slain,
the Lamb of God without a stain;
his flesh, the true unleavened bread,
is freely offered in our stead.
5 O all-sufficient Sacrifice,
beneath thee hell defeated lies;
thy captive people are set free,
and endless life restored in thee.
6 We hymn thee rising from the grave,
from death returning, strong to save;
thine own right hand the tyrant chains,
and paradise for us regains.
7 All praise be thine, O risen Lord,
from death to endless life restored;
all praise to God the Father be
and Holy Ghost eternally. Topics: Easter (season); Easter Vigil ; Eucharist; Exodus Languages: English Tune Title: ST. VENANTIUS

our life is hid with him in God.
3 That paschal eve God's arm was bared,
the devastating angel spared;
by strength of hand our hosts went free
from Pharaoh's ruthless tyranny.
4 Now Christ, our Passover, is slain,
the Lamb of God without a stain;

our own unleavened bread sincere.
