In songs of praise divinely sing;
The great salvation loud proclaim,
And shout for joy the Savior's name.

To ev'ry land the strains belong;
In cheerful sounds all voices raise,
And fill the world with loudest praise.

Earth, tell it out abroad;
The passover of gladness,
The passover of God,
From death to life eternal,
From earth unto the sky,
Our Christ hath brought us over
With hymns of victory.
2 Our hearts be pure from evil,
That we may see aright
The Lord in rays eternal
Of resurrection light;
And listening to His accents,
May hear, so calm and plain,
His own "All hail!" and, hearing,
May raise the victor strain.
3 Now let the heavens be joyful!
Let earth her song begin!
Let the round world keep triumph,
And all that is therein!
Let all things seen and unseen
Their notes in gladness blend,
For Christ the Lord hath risen,
Our joy that hath no end.
Amen. Scripture: Matthew 28:9 Used With Tune: ROTTERDAM

"Welcome, happy morning!" age to age shall say
Author: V. Fortuantus; J. Ellerton Meter: 11.11.11.11.11 Appears in 282 hymnals Topics: Processionals Eastertide Lyrics: 1 "Welcome, happy morning!" age to age shall say,
Hell to-day is vanquished, heaven is won to-day!
Lo! the dead is living, God, forevermore!
Him, their true Creator, all His works adore!
"Welcome, happy morning!" age to age shall say.
2 Earth her joy confesses, clothing her for spring,
All fresh gifts returned with her returning King:
Bloom in every meadow, leaves on every bough,
Speak His sorrow ended, hail His triumph now.
Hell to-day is vanquished, heaven is won to-day.
3 Months in due succession, days of lengthening light,
Hours and passing moments praise Thee in their flight;
Brightness of the morning, sky and fields and sea,
Vanquisher of darkness, bring their praise to Thee!
"Welcome, happy morning!" age to age shall say.
4 Maker and Redeemer, life and health to all,
Thou from heaven beholding human nature's fall,
Of the Father's Godhead true and only Son,
Manhood to deliver, manhood didst put on.
Hell to-day is vanquished, heaven is won to-day.
5 Thou, of life the author, death didst undergo,
Tread the path of darkness, saving strength to show;
Come then, True and Faithful, now fulfill Thy word;
'Tis Thine own third morning: rise, O buried Lord!
"Welcome, happy morning!" age to age shall say.
6 Loose the souls long prisoned, bound with Satan's chain;
All that now is fallen raise to life again;
Show Thy face in brightness, bid the nations see;
Bring again our daylight: day returns with Thee!
Hell to-day is vanquished, heaven is won to-day!
Amen.

Sons of men and angels say:
Raise your joys and triumphs high,
Sing, ye heavens, and earth reply.

Fought the fight, the victory won:
Jesus' agony is o'er,
Darkness veils the earth no more.

Christ hath burst the gates of hell;
Death in vain forbids Him rise,
Christ hath opened Paradise.
4 Soar we now where Christ hath led,
Following our exalted Head;
Made like Him, like Him we rise,
Ours the cross, the grave, the skies.
Amen.

While on earth we tarry,

And reveal Thyself still clearer.

Every day and hour.

Through the night of doubt and sorrow
Author: Bernhard S. Ingemann; Sabine Baring-Gould Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 317 hymnals Topics: Processional Lyrics:
Through the night of doubt and sorrow
Onward goes the pilgrim band,
Singing songs of expectation,
Marching to the promised land.
Clear before us through the darkness
Gleams and burns the guiding light:
Brother clasps the hand of brother,
Stepping fearless through the night.
One, the light of God's own presence,
O'er his ransomed people shed,
Chasing far the gloom and terror,
Brightening all the path we tread:
One, the object of our journey,
One, the faith which never tires,
One, the earnest looking forward,
One, the hope our God inspires.
One, the strain the lips of thousands
Lift as from the heart of one;
One the conflict, one the peril,
One, the march in God begun:
One, the gladness of rejoicing
On the far eternal shore,
Where the One Almighty Father
Reigns in love for evermore.
500
Onward therefore, pilgrim brothers,
Onward, with the cross our aid!
Bear its shame, and fight its battle,
Till we rest beneath its shade!
Soon shall come the great awaking;
Soon the rending of the tomb;
Then the scattering of all shadows,
And the end of toil and gloom!
