Author: Brian Wren Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 55 hymnals Topics: Ascension & Reign of Christ; Ascension & Reign of Christ Lyrics: 1 Christ is alive! Let Christians sing.
His cross stands empty to the sky.
Let streets and homes with praises ring.
His love in death shall never die.
2 Christ is alive! No longer bound
to distant years in Palestine,
he comes to claim the here and now
and conquer every place and time.
3 Not decked with gold, remotely high,
untouched, unmoved by human pains,
but daily, in the midst of life,
our Savior with the Father reigns.
4 In every insult, rift, and war
where color, scorn, or wealth divide,
he suffers still, yet loves the more,
with healing hands and aching side.
5 Christ is alive! His Spirit burns
through this and every future age,
till all creation lives and learns
his joy, his justice, love, and praise.
Scripture: Zechariah 8:18-23 Used With Tune: TRURO

Hosanna, Loud Hosanna
Author: Jeannette Threlfall Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 161 hymnals Topics: Reign of Christ Lyrics: 1 Hosanna, loud hosanna,
the little children sang.
Through pillared court and temple
the lovely anthem rang.
To Jesus, who had blessed them,
close folded to his breast,
the children sang their praises,
the simplest and the best.
2 From Olivet they followed
’mid an exultant crowd,
the victor palm branch waving,
and chanting clear and loud.
The Lord of earth and heaven
rode on in lowly state,
nor scorned that little children
should on his bidding wait.
3 “Hosanna in the highest!”
That ancient song we sing,
for Christ is our Redeemer,
the Lord of heav’n, our King.
Oh, may we ever praise him
with heart and life and voice,
and in his blissful presence
eternally rejoice! Scripture: Psalm 118:19-29 Used With Tune: ELLACOMBE Text Sources: Sunshine and Shadow, 1873, alt.

Author: Henry Alford Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Appears in 737 hymnals Topics: Reign of Christ First Line: Come, ye thankful people, come! Lyrics: 1 Come, ye thankful people come!
Raise the song of harvest home.
All is safely gathered in
ere the winter storms begin.
God our Maker, doth provide
for our need to be supplied.
Come to God’s own temple come.
Raise the song of harvest home.
2 All the world is God’s own field,
fruit unto God’s praise to yield;
wheat and tares together sown,
unto joy or sorrow grown.
First the blade and then the ear,
then the full corn shall appear.
God of harvest, grant that we
wholesome grain and pure may be.
3 For our God again shall come,
and shall take the harvest home,
from the field shall in that day
all offenses cast away,
giving angels charge at last
in the fire the tares to cast,
but the fruitful ears to store
in God’s garner evermore.
4 Then, O church triumphant, come.
Raise the song of harvest home.
All are safely gathered in,
free from sorrow, free from sin;
there forever purified
in God’s presence to abide.
Come, ten thousand angels, come!
Raise the song of harvest home. Scripture: Matthew 13:24-30 Used With Tune: ST GEORGE’S WINDSOR Text Sources: based on Psalm 103; Psalms and Hymns, 1844, alt.
