The Day of Resurrection!
Author: St. John of Damascus; J. M. Neale Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 527 hymnals Scripture: Exodus 12:13-14 Refrain First Line: Alleluia! Lyrics: 1 The day of resurrection!
Earth, tell it out abroad;
the Passover of gladness,
the Passover of God.
From death to life eternal,
from this world to the sky,
our Christ hath brought us over
with hymns of victory.
2 Our hearts be pure from evil,
that we may see aright
the Lord in rays eternal
of resurrection light;
and, listening to his accents,
may hear, so calm and plain,
his own "All hail!" and, hearing,
may raise the victor strain.
3 Now let the heavens be joyful,
let earth her song begin;
let the round world keep triumph,
and all that is therein;
let all things seen and unseen
their notes of gladness blend,
for Christ the Lord hath risen,
our joy that hath no end.

The Lamb's High Banquet Called to Share
Author: John Mason Neale (1818-1866) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 33 hymnals Scripture: Exodus 12:1-14 Lyrics: 1 The Lamb's high banquet called to share,
arrayed in garments white and fair,
the Red Sea past, we long to sing
to Jesus our triumphant king.
2 Upon the altar of the cross,
his body hath redeemed our loss;
and, tasting of his precious blood,
our life is hid with him in God.
3 Protected in the paschal night
from the destroying angel's might,
in triumph went the ransomed free
from Pharaoh's cruel tyranny.
4 Now Christ our passover is slain,
the Lamb of God without a stain;
his flesh, the true unleavened bread,
is freely offered in our stead.
5 O all-sufficient Sacrifice,
beneath thee hell defeated lies;
thy captive people are set free,
and endless life restored in thee.
6 We hymn thee rising from the grave,
from death returning, strong to save;
thine own right hand the tyrant chains,
and paradise for us regains.
7 All praise be thine, O risen Lord,
from death to endless life restored;
all praise to God the Father be
and Holy Ghost eternally. Topics: Easter (season); Easter Vigil ; Eucharist; Exodus Used With Tune: ST. VENANTIUS Text Sources: Latin (6th cent.)

Come, Ye Faithful, Raise the Strain
Author: John of Damascus (675?-749?); John Mason Neale (1818-1866) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 383 hymnals Scripture: Exodus 12:1-14 Lyrics: 1 Come, ye faithful, raise the strain
of triumphant gladness;
God hath brought his Israel
into joy from sadness:
loosed from Pharaoh's bitter yoke
Jacob's sons and daughters;
led them with unmoistened foot
through 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 splendour,
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 amidst the twelve
thou didst stand, bestowing
that thy peace which evermore
passeth human knowing.
5 Alleluia now we cry
to our King immortal,
who triumphant burst the bars
of the tomb's dark portal;
alleluia, with the Son
God the Father praising;
alleluia, yet again
to the Spirit raising. Topics: Easter (season); Easter Vigil Used With Tune: AVE VIRGO VIRGINUM (GAUDEAMUS PARITER)

Author: Johann Franck; Catherine Winkworth Meter: 6.6.5.6.6.5.7.8.6 Appears in 136 hymnals Scripture: Exodus 12:1-20 Lyrics: 1 Jesu, meine Freude,
meines Herzens Weide,
Jesu, meine Zier!
Ach, wie lang, ach lange
ist dem Herzen bange
und verlangt nach dir!
Gottes Lamm, mein Bräutigam,
außer dir soll mir auf Erden
nichts sonst Liebers werden.
2 Unter deinem Schirmen
bin ich vor den Stürmen
aller Feinde frei.
Lass den Satan wettern,
lass die Welt erzittern,
mir steht Jesus bei.
Ob es jetzt gleich kracht und blitzt,
ob gleich Sünd und Hölle schrecken,
Jesus will mich decken.
3 Weicht, ihr Trauergeister;
denn mein Freudenmeister,
Jesus, tritt herein.
Denen, die Gott lieben,
muss auch ihr Betrüben
lauter Freude sein.
Duld ich schon hier Spott und Hohn,
dennoch bleibst du auch im Leide,
Jesu, meine Freude.
1 Jesus, priceless treasure,
source of purest pleasure,
truest friend to me,
long my heart hath panted,
till it wellnigh fainted,
thirsting after thee.
Thine I am, O spotless Lamb;
I will suffer naught to hide thee,
ask for naught beside thee.
2 In thine arm I rest me;
foes who have oppressed me
cannot reach me here.
Though the earth be shaking,
every heart be quaking,
Jesus calms my fear.
Sin and hell in conflict fell
with their heaviest storms assail me;
Jesus will not fail me.
3 Hence, all thoughts of sadness!
for the Lord of gladness,
Jesus, enters in.
Those who love the Savior,
though the storms may gather,
still have peace within.
Yea, whate’er we here must bear,
still in thee lies purest pleasure,
Jesus, priceless treasure! Topics: Comfort; Jesus Christ Images and Names of; Peace Inner; Protection Used With Tune: JESU MEINE FREUDE Text Sources: Praxis pietatis melica, 5th ed., 1653; trans. Catherine Winkworth (England), Chorale Book for England, 1863, alt.
