The day of Resurrection!

Author: J. M. Neale Appears in 532 hymnals Topics: Lent Eastertide 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 earth unto 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, The round world keep high triumph, And all that is therein; Let all things seen and unseen Their notes together blend, For Christ the Lord is risen, Our joy that hath no end.

Author: James Montgomery Appears in 211 hymnals Topics: First Sunday in Lent Lyrics: 1 O pour Thy Spirit from on high! Lord, Thine appointed servants bless; Thy promised pow'r to each supply, And clothe Thy priests with righteousness. 2 Wisdom, and zeal, and faith impart, Firmness with meekness, from above, To bear Thy people in their heart, And love the souls whom Thou dost love; 3 To watch, and pray, and never faint; By day and night their guard to keep; To warn the sinner, cheer the saint, Protect Thy lambs, and feed Thy sheep. 4 And when their work is finished here, Let them in hope their charge resign; Before the throne with joy appear, And there with endless glory shine.

To those who fall, how kind Thou art, How good to those who seek! 4 But what to those who find? ah, this Nor tongue nor pen can show; The Love of Jesus, what it is, None but His loved ones know. 5 Jesus, our only Joy be Thou! As Thou our Prize wilt be; Jesus, be Thou our Glory now, And through eternity! Used With Tune: REDHEAD, 66

Jesus Wept

Author: John R. MacDuff Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.7 Appears in 110 hymnals Topics: Lent First Line: Who is this in silence bending Lyrics: 1. Who is this in silence bending O'er a dark, sepulchral cave? Sympathetic sorrow blending With the tears around that grave? Christ the Lord is standing by At the tomb of Bethany. 2. Jesus wept! those tears are over, But his heart is still the same; Kinsman, Friend, and Elder Brother, Are his everlasting names. Saviour! who can love like thee, Gracious One of Bethany? 3. When the pangs of trial seize us, When the waves of sorrow roll, I will lay my head on Jesus, Pillow of the troubled soul. Surely, none can feel like thee, Weeping One of Bethany! 4. Jesus wept!—and still in glory, He can mark each mourner’s tear; Loving to retrace the story Of the hearts He solaced here. Lord, when I am called to die, Let me think of Bethany! 5. Jesus wept! that tear of sorrow Is a legacy of love; Yesterday, today, tomorrow, He the same does ever prove. Thou art all in all to me, Living One of Bethany! Scripture: John 11:28-37 Used With Tune: LUX PRIMA
