Come, ye Faithful, raise the Strain

Author: John of Damascus; J. M. Neale Appears in 380 hymnals Topics: Church Festivals Passion and Easter Lyrics: 1 Come, ye 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 Thro' the Red Sea waters. 2 'Tis the spring of souls today, Christ hath burst His prison, And from three days' sleep in death As a sun hath 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 splendor, With the royal feast of feasts, Comes its joy to render; Comes to glad Jerusalem, Who with true affection Welcomes, in unwearied strains Jesus' resurrection. 4 Neither might the gates of death Nor the tomb’s dark portal, Nor the watchers, nor the seal, Hold Thee as a mortal; But today amid Thine own Thou didst stand, bestowing This, Thy peace, which evermore Passeth human knowing.
