If Jesus Rose Not From The Grave
Author: Thomas Kelly Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 1 hymnal Lyrics: 1 If Jesus rose not from the grave,
The faith of all His saints is vain:
That He can have no power to save,
If death detains Him still, is plain.
2 If Jesus rose not from the grave,
We’re guilty still, our sins remain:
The hope is vain His people have;
If Jesus rose not, hope is vain.
3 If Jesus rose not from the grave,
His foes were right in all they said:
For He to all assurance gave
That He would rise, and leave the dead.
4 If Jesus rose not from the grave,
Then all He said was empty boast:
His claims no good foundation have;
And they who sleep in Him are lost.
If Jesus rose not from the grave,
The thief that perished by His side,
As just a claim as He would have,
To be the sinner’s hope and guide.
5 But now is Jesus risen indeed:
The first fruits He of those who sleep:
Rejoice ye saints, the Prisoner’s freed;
For who could such a prisoner keep?
6 He fought with Death, the saints’ last foe:
And though He seemed to lose the day,
’Twas Death sustained the overthrow,
Subdued by Him who seemed his prey.
7 Doubt then no more, ye saints, nor grieve
The Lord is risen, is risen indeed;
Because He lives, His saints shall live:
Shall live with Him, their glorious head.
8 He sits at God’s right hand above,
The dread of foes, the joy of friends;
Supreme in power, in truth, in love,
His kingdom, one that never ends.
9 The glorious day is drawing near,
When He who lay in yonder tomb,
With crowds of angels shall appear,
And take His waiting people home. Used With Tune: WOODWORTH Text Sources: Hymns Not Before Published (Dublin: Thomas Johnston, 1815)

A Halo Rests Upon Thy Brow
Author: John Brownlie Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 2 hymnals Lyrics: 1 A halo rests upon Thy brow,
O Savior of the sons of men;
For Thou art crowned a victor now—
But Thou wilt come to us again.
2 Thou hast a thought for those who tread
The steeps of life, and often fail;
The weak in faith lift up the head,
And in Thy strength, O Christ, prevail.
3 Thou art not far removed from those,
That yearn for Thee, and seek Thy grace;
Who in Thy tender love repose,
May hear Thy voice, and see Thy face—
4 And know the love that giveth rest,
And share its strength, and feel its glow;
As he who leaned upon Thy breast,
When Thou wert with us, long ago.
5 But hearts are sad, and lives are lone,
They long for Thee, who love Thee most;
E’en when Thy promised Gift they own—
The comfort of the Holy Ghost.
6 Thou art our faith, our hope, our love,
O Lover of the souls of men;
Bow down Thy heav’ns, and from above,
Come, blessèd Lord, to us again. Used With Tune: WOODWORTH Text Sources: Tr.: Hymns of the Russian Church (London: Humphrey Milford & Oxford University Press, 1920)

How Many Years Has Man Been Driven
Author: John Cennick, 1718-1755 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 30 hymnals Lyrics: 1 How many years has man been driven
Far off from happiness and Heaven?
When wilt Thou, gracious Lord, restore
Thy wandering church, to roam no more?
2 Six thousand years are nearly past
Since Adam from Thy sight was cast;
And ever since, his fallen race,
From age to age, is void of grace.
3 When will the happy trump proclaim
The judgment of the martyred Lamb?
When shall the captive troops be free,
And keep the eternal jubilee!
4 Hasten it, Lord, in every land;
Send Thou thine angels and command,
Go, sound deliverance; loudly blow
Salvation to the saints below.
5 We want to have the day appear!
The promised great sabbatic year,
When, far from grief, and sin, and hell,
Israel in ceaseless peace shall dwell. Used With Tune: WOODWORTH Text Sources: A Selection of Hymns from the Best Authors by John Rippon, 1787
How Many Years Has Man Been Driven
Where Is the Holy Heav'n-Born Child?
Author: Charles Wesley Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: Where is the holy Heav'n-born child Lyrics: 1. Where is the holy Heav’n-born child,
Heir of the everlasting throne,
Who Heav’n and earth hath reconciled,
And God and man rejoined in one?
2. Shall we of earthly kings inquire,
To courts or palaces repair?
The nations’ hope, the world’s desire,
Alas! we cannot find Him there.
3. Shall learning show the sinner’s friend,
Or scribes a sight of Christ afford?
Us to His natal place they send,
But never go to see their Lord.
4. We search the outward Church in vain,
They cannot Him we seek declare,
They have not found the Son of Man,
Or known the sacred name they bear.
5. Then let us turn no more aside,
But use the light Himself imparts,
His Spirit is our surest guide,
His Spirit glimmering in our hearts.
6. Drawn by His grace we come from far,
And fix on Heav’n our wistful eyes,
That ray divine, that orient star
Directs us where the infant lies.
7. See there! the newborn Savior see,
By faith discern the great I AM;
’Tis He! the eternal God! ’tis He
That bears the mild Immanuel’s name.
8. The Prince of Peace on earth is found,
The child is born, the son is giv’n;
Tell it to all the nations round,
Jehovah is come down from Heav’n!
9. Jehovah is come down to raise
His dying creatures from their fall,
And all may now receive the grace
Which brings eternal life to all.
10. Lord, we receive the grace and Thee,
With joy unspeakable receive,
And rise Thine open face to see,
And one with God for ever live. Used With Tune: WOODWORTH Text Sources: Hymns for the Nativity of Our Lord (London: William Strahan, 1745), number 17
