Sing, Oh Sing

Author: Marcus D. Lane Appears in 10 hymnals First Line: Sing, oh sing, ye children Refrain First Line: Dark and sad the evening Lyrics: 1 Sing, oh sing, ye children, Sing ye joyfully; Christ our Lord hath risen From death’s captivity. Risen is our Savior, Christ, our Lord and king! Therefore sing ye praises, Joyful homage bring. Refrain: Dark and sad the evening, When His foes prevailed, When our Master’s body To the cross was nailed. Evil foes had conquered, Holiness was slain; Satan then victorious, Ruled the earth again. 2 Follow to the garden, to the rocky tomb, Where His friends had laid Him In the deepening gloom; Roman guards were stationed, Fixed the Jewish seal, Lest, by night, the faithful, Should His body steal. [Refrain] 3 Vain were Roman soldiers, Vain the Jewish seal, Christ hath burst the prison! Christ hath conquered hell! Risen is our Savior, Christ our Lord and king! Therefore sing ye praises, Joyful homage bring. [Refrain] 4 Ever in the heavens Reigneth Christ our king, And His might extolling, We His praises sing. Sing the wondrous story, Of the joyful hour, When the grave was conquered By His mighty power. [Refrain] Used With Tune: [Sing, oh sing, ye children] Text Sources: Children's Praise by Julius H. Waterbury (New York: Pott, Young & Company, 1871)
