At the Lamb's High Feast We Sing

Author: Robert Campbell, 1814-1868 Meter: 7.7.7.7 D with refrain Appears in 186 hymnals Lyrics: 1 At the Lamb's high feast we sing Praise to our victorious King. He has washed us in the tide Flowing from his opened side. Praise we him, whose love divine Gives his sacred blood for wine, Gives his body for the feast, Christ the victim, Christ the priest. 2 Where the paschal blood is poured, Death's dark angel sheathes his sword; Israel's hosts triumphant go Through the wave that drowns the foe. Christ the Lamb, whose blood was shed, Paschal victim, paschal bread! With sincerity and love Eat we manna from above. 3 Mighty victim from the sky, Pow'rs of hell beneath you lie; Death is broken in the fight, You have brought us life and light. Vict'ry's banner you now wave, Conqu'ring Satan and the grave; See the prince of darkness quelled, Heaven's gates are open held. 4 Easter triumph, Easter joy, Sin alone can these destroy; From sin's death now set us free: Souls reborn, O Lord, we'll be. Hymns of glory, songs of praise, Father, unto you we raise; And to you, our risen King, With the Spirit, praise we sing.

Praise the One Who Breaks the Darkness

Author: Rusty Edwards Appears in 19 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Praise the One who breaks the darkness With a liberating light. Praise the One who frees the pris'ners, Turning blindness into sight. Praise the One who preached the Gospel, Healing every dread disease, Calming storms and feeding thousands With the very bread of peace. 2 Praise the One who blessed the children With a strong yet gentle word. Praise the One who drove out demons With the piercing two-edged sword. Praise the One who brings cool water To the desert's burning sand. From this well comes living water, Quenching thirst in every land. 3 Praise the one true love incarnate: Christ, who suffered in our place. Jesus died and rose for many That we may know God by grace. Let us sing for joy and gladness, Seeing what our God has done. Praise the one redeeming glory, Praise the One who makes us one.
