when God commanded light to shine:
cast darkness and its works away
to celebrate with bread and wine!
2 First of the week was Easter morn
when Christ the Lord from death was raised;
new life, fresh hope that day was born
and God in heaven and earth was praised.
3 First of the week the Spirit came
to fill the church with grace and power;
the rushing wind and tongues of flame
were heralds of that promised hour.
4 First of the week we set aside
to meet, to learn,to give, to pray;
to spread Christ's gospel far and wide -
in truth, this is the Lord's own day! Topics: God's Church The Lord's Day; Easter The Resurrection of Christ; Easter 1 The Upper Room; Pentecost The Holy Spirit; Trinity Sunday The Trinity Languages: English Tune Title: GALILEE
