and yet whose faith has constant been,
for they eternal life shall win.
Alleluia!

Author: Henry Alford. 1810-1871 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 73 hymnals Scripture: John 20:19-31 Lyrics: 1 We walk by faith, and not by sight;
No gracious words draw near,
O Christ , Who spoke as none e’er spoke;
"My preace be with you here."
2 We may not touch Your hands and side,
Nor follow where You trod;
But in your promise we rejoice,
And cry, “My Lord and God!”
3 Help then, O Lord, our unbelief;
And may our faith abound
To call on You when You are near,
And seek where You are found.
4 That, when our life of faith is done,
In realms of clearer light
We may behold You as You are,
With full and endless sight.

That Easter Day with Joy Was Bright
Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 77 hymnals Scripture: John 20:19-23 Lyrics: 1 That Easter day with joy was bright:
the sun shone out with fairer light
when to their longing eyes restored,

his wounded hands and feet he showed;
those scars their solemn witness gave
that Christ was risen from the grave.

do all our inmost hearts possess,
that we may give thee all our days
the willing tribute of our praise.

in this, our joyful Easter-tide;
from ev'ry weapon death can wield
thine own redeemed forever shield. Topics: Christ Conqueror Used With Tune: PUER NOBIS NASCITUR Text Sources: Early medieval Latin hymn; Tr. in Hymns Ancient and Modern, 1861; alt.

Crown Him with Many Crowns
Author: Matthew Bridges; Godfrey Thring Meter: 6.6.8.6 D Appears in 803 hymnals Scripture: John 20:25-28 Lyrics: 1 Crown him with many crowns, the Lamb upon his throne;
hark! how the heavenly anthem drowns all music but its own;
awake, my soul, and sing of him who died for thee,
and hail him as thy matchless king through all eternity.
2 Crown him the Lord of life, who triumphed o'er the grave,
and rose victorious in the strife for those he came to save;
his glories now we sing who died and rose on high,
who died eternal life to bring, and lives that death may die.
3 Crown him the Lord of love; behold his hands and side,
rich wounds, yet visible above, in beauty glorified;
no angels in the sky can fully bear that sight,
but downward bends their burning eye at mysteries so bright.
4 Crown him the Lord of years, the potentate of time,
creator of the rolling spheres, ineffably sublime.
All hail, Redeemer, hail! for thou hast died for me;
thy praise shall never, never fail throughout eternity.

O for a Thousand Tongues to Sing
Author: Charles Wesley Appears in 1,748 hymnals Scripture: John 20:31 Lyrics: 1 O for a thousand tongues to sing
My dear Redeemer's praise,
The glories of my God and King,
The triumphs of His grace!
2 Jesus! the name that charms our fears,
That bids our sorrows cease;
'Tis music in the sinner's ears,
'Tis life, and health and peace.
3 He breaks the power of cancelled sin,
He sets the prisoner free;
His blood can make the foulest clean;
His blood availed for me.
4 Hear Him, ye deaf; His praise, ye dumb,
Your loosened tongues employ;
Ye blind, behold your Savior come;
And leap ye lame, for joy.
5 My gracious Master and my God,
Assist me to proclaim,
To spread thro' all the earth abroad,
The honors of Thy name.

Come, Ye Faithful, Raise the Strain
Author: John of Damascus; J. M. Neale Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 379 hymnals Scripture: John 20:19 Lyrics: 1 Come, ye faithful, raise the strain
of triumphant gladness;
God hath brought his Israel
into joy from sadness:
loosed from Pharoah'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 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 amidst thine own
thou didst stand, bestowing
thine own peace which evermore
passeth human knowing.
