Ĉe arktaj neĝo-montoj

Author: Reginald Heber; Agnes Burton Deans Appears in 4 hymnals Scripture: Mark 16:15 Lyrics: 1. Ĉe arktaj neĝo-montoj, hom-plena orient', Afrikaj sunaj fontoj, proksima okcident'; ĉe valo kaj kamparo, rivero kaj arbar', nin vokas gefrataro en ĉenoj de erar'. 2. Nin ravas birda sono, allogas ĉiu flor', troviĝas ja malbono nur en la homa kor': kaj vane riceviĝas de l' homo ĉiu bon'; li blinde genuiĝas al ligno kaj al ŝton'. 3. Ĉiele lum-benitaj, ĉu rifuzadu ni al homoj nesavitaj la scion pri l' Mesi'? "Vin savis Krista amo, akceptu lin en ver'!" sonadu la proklamo en ĉiu land' sur ter'. 4. Ruliĝu, mara ondo, kaj ventoj, blovu vi, ke venku tra la mondo la Krist-evangeli'. Ĝis laŭ fervora preĝo revenos Krist' al ni, Savinto, Dio, Reĝo — kaj ĉie regos li.

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 ev’ry place and time. 3 In ev’ry insult, rift, and war, where color, scorn, or wealth divide, Christ suffers still, yet loves the more, and lives, where even hope has died. 4 Christ is alive, and comes to bring good news to this and ev’ry age, till earth and sky and ocean ring with joy, with justice, love, and praise.

Hush in wonder: all creation is amazed. In the desert all-surrounding, see, a spreading tree has grown. Healing leaves of grace abounding bring a taste of love unknown. 2 Christ is risen! Raise your spirits from the caverns of despair. Walk with gladness in the morning. See what love can do and dare. Drink the wine of resurrection, not a servant, but a friend. Jesus is our strong companion. Joy and peace shall never end. 3 Christ is risen! Earth and heaven nevermore shall be the same. Break the bread of new creation where the world is still in pain. Tell its grim, demonic chorus: "Christ is risen! Get you gone!" God the First and Last is with us. Sing Hosanna everyone!
