Christ Is Risen! Shout Hosanna!

Author: Brian Wren Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 23 hymnals Topics: God Known in Jesus Christ Resurrection and Exaltation Lyrics: 1 Christ is risen! Shout hosanna! Celebrate this day of days! Christ is risen! Hush in wonder: all creation is amazed. In the desert all-surrounding, see, a spreading tree has grown. Healing leaves of grace abounding bring a taste of love unknown. 2 Christ is risen! Raise your spirits from the caverns of despair. Walk with gladness in the morning. See what love can do and dare. Drink the wine of resurrection, not a servant, but a friend. Jesus is our strong companion. Joy and peace shall never end. 3 Christ is risen! Earth and heaven nevermore shall be the same. Break the bread of new creation where the world is still in pain. Tell its grim, demonic chorus: "Christ is risen! Get you gone!" God the first and last is with us. Sing Hosanna everyone!

Here Hangs a Man Discarded

Author: Brian Wren Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 7 hymnals Topics: God Known in Jesus Christ Suffering and Death Lyrics: 1 Here hangs a man discarded, a scarecrow hoisted high, a nonsense pointing nowhere to all who hurry by. 2 Can such a clown of sorrows still bring a useful word when faith and love seem phantoms and every hope absurd? 3 Yet here is help and comfort for lives by comfort bound, when drums of dazzling progress give strangely hollow sound: 4 Life, emptied of all meaning, drained out in bleak distress, can share in broken silence our deepest emptiness; 5 And love that freely entered the pit of life's despair, can name our hidden darkness and suffer with us there. 6 Christ, in our darkness risen, help all who long for light to hold the hand of promise, till faith receives its sight. Scripture: 1 Corinthians 1:18-31
