Christ Is Alive

Author: Brian Wren Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 56 hymnals Topics: Easter 4 Year A First Line: Christ is alive! Let Christians sing Lyrics: 1 Christ is alive! Let Christians sing. The cross stands empty to the sky. Let streets and homes with praises ring. Love, drowned in death, shall never die. 2 Christ is alive! No longer bound to distant years in Palestine, but saving, healing, here and now and touching every place and time. 3 In every insult, rift, and war where colour, scorn, or wealth divide, Christ suffers still, yet loves the more, and lives, where even hope has died. 4 Women and men, in age and youth, can feel the Spirit, hear the call, and find the way, the life, the truth, revealed in Jesus, freed for all. 5 Christ is alive, and comes to bring good news to this and every age, till earth and sky and ocean ring with joy, with justice, love and praise.

My head thou dost with oil anoint, And my cup over-flows. 5 Goodness and mercy all my life Shall surely follow me, And in God's house forevermore My dwelling-place shall be.
