He dies, the friend of sinners dies!

Hymnal: Hymns, Selected and Original #144 (1828) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Christ Resurrection, Ascension, Intercession and Glory; Christ dying, rising and reigning Lyrics: 1 He dies, the friend of sinners dies! Lo! Salem's daughters weep around. A solemn darkness veils the skies; A sudden trembling shakes the ground. 2 Come saints, and drop a tear or two, For him who groaned beneath your load; He shed a thousand drops for you, A thousand drops of richer blood! 3 Here's love and grief beyond degree, The Lord of glory dies for men! But lo!--what sudden joys we see! Jesus, the dead, revives again. 4 The rising God forsakes the tomb: In vain the tomb forbids his rise: Cherubic legions guard him home, And shout him welcome to the skies. 5 Break off your tears, ye saints, and tell, How high our great Deliv'rer reigns. Sing, how he spoil'd the hosts of hell, And led the monster, death, in chains. 6 Say: "Live for ever, wondrous King! Born to redeem, and strong to save!" Then ask the monster: "where's thy sting! And where's thy vict'ry, boasting grave?"

Chorus: I am so happy in Jesus, Captivity’s Captor is He; Angels rejoice when a soul’s saved, Some day we like Him shall be, Sorrow and joy have the same Lord, Valley of shadows shall sing; Death has its life, its door opens in heaven eternally, Christ is King. 2 Crucified, thus He suffered and bled for me, Death and the grave won sin’s victory; Then the sky grew dark and the temple veil rent in twain, Rocks rent, and angels came, for He lived again. (Chorus) 3 At His feet, on old Olivet’s Hill, they say, Cloud chariots halted, took Christ away; Then the angels came and to wond’ring disciples said He’ll come, and earth and sea shall yield up their dead.
