Hail, Glad Festival Day

Author: Venantius Fortunatus; Maurice Frederick Bell Meter: Irregular Appears in 19 hymnals Topics: Jesus Christ Ascension and Reign First Line: Lo, the fair beauty of earth Refrain First Line: Hail, glad festival day! Lyrics: [Refrain:] Hail, glad festival day! Blest day to be hallowed for ever, day wherein Christ arose, breaking the kingdom of death. [Easter:] 1 Lo, the fair beauty of earth, from the death of the winter arising, every good gift of the year now with its Saviour returns. [Refrain] 2 He who was nailed to the cross is God and the ruler of all things; all things created on earth worship the maker of all. [Refrain] 3 Mourning they laid you to rest, the author of life and creation; treading the pathway of death, life now bestowing on all. [Refrain] 4 God of all pity and power, let your word be assured to the doubting: light on the third day returns; rise, Son of God, from the tomb! [Refrain] [Ascension:] 1 Christ in his triumph ascends, who had vanquished the devil's dominion; bright is the woodland with leaves, brilliant the meadows with flowers. [Refrain] 2 Daily the loveliness grows, adorned with glory of blossom; heaven its gates now unbars, flinging its increase of light. [Refrain] 3 Jesus, the health of the word, enlighten our minds, great Redeemer, Son of the Father supreme, only-begotten of God! [Refrain] 4 Praise to the giver of good! O Lover and Author of concord, pour out your balm on our days; order our days in your peace. [Refrain] [Pentecost:] 1 Lo, in the likeness of fire, on those who await his appearing, he whom the Lord foretold suddenly, swiftly descends: [Refrain] 2 Forth to the faithful he comes with sevenfold mystical offering, pouring on all human souls infinite riches of God. [Refrain] 3 Hark! for in myriad tongues Christ's own, his chosen apostles, preach to the ends of the earth Christ and his wonderful works. [Refrain] 4 Praise to the Spirit of life, all praise to the fount of our being, light that now lightens all, life that in all now abides. [Refrain] Used With Tune: SALVE, FESTA DIES
