'Christ, the Lord, is risen today!'
Author: Charles Wesley, 1707-1788 Appears in 1,185 hymnals Lyrics: 1 'Christ the Lord is risen today!'
all creation join to say:
raise your joys and triumphs high;
sing, you heavens, and earth reply:
love's redeeming work is done!
Fought the fight, the battle won:
see, our sun's eclipse has passed
see, the light returns at last!
2 Vain the stone, the watch, the seal:
Christ has burst the gates of hell;
death in vain forbids Him rise —
Christ has opened Paradise;
lives again our glorious King;
where, O Death, is now your sting?
Once He died, our souls to save;
where's your victory, boasting grave?
3 Soar we now where Christ has led,
following our exalted head;
made like Him, like Him we rise;
ours the cross, the grave, the skies:
hail the Lord of earth and heaven!
Praise to You by both be given;
every knee to You shall bow,
risen Christ, triumphant now!

Take comfort, Christians, when your friends
Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 24 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Take comfort, Christians, when your friends
in Jesus fall asleep;
their better being never ends;
why then dejected weep?
2 Why inconsolable, as those
to whom no hope is giv’n?
Death is the messenger of peace,
and calls the soul to heav’n.
3 As Jesus dy'd, and rose again
victorious from the dead;
so his disciples rise, and reign
with their triumphant Head.
4 The time draws nigh, when from the clouds
Christ shall with shouts descend,
and the last trumpet’s awful voice
the heavens and earth shall rend.
5 Then they who live shall changed be,
and they who sleep shall wake;
the graves shall yield their ancient charge,
and earth’s foundations shake.
6 The saints of God, from death set free,
with joy shall mount on high;
the heav’nly hosts with praises loud
shall meet them in the sky,
7 Together to their Father’s house
with joyful hearts they go;
and dwell for ever with the Lord,
beyond the reach of woe.
8 A few short years of evil past,
we reach the happy shore,
where death-divided friends at last
shall meet, to part no more. Scripture: 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18 Used With Tune: BALLERMA
Take comfort, Christians, when your friends

We sing the praise of Him who died
Author: Thomas Kelly, 1769-1855 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 192 hymnals Lyrics: 1 We sing the praise of Him who died,
of Him who died upon the cross;
the sinner's hope though all deride,
for this we count the world but loss.
2 Inscribed upon the cross we see
in shining letters, 'God is love';
He bears our sins upon the tree;
He brings us mercy from above.
3 The cross! it takes our guilt away:
it holds the fainting spirit up;
it cheers with hope the gloomy day,
and sweetens every bitter cup;
4 It makes the coward spirit brave,
and nerves the feeble arm for fight;
it takes its terror from the grave,
and gilds the bed of death with light:
5 The balm of life, the cure of woe,
the measure and the pledge of love,
the sinner's refuge here below,
the angels' theme in heaven above. Used With Tune: WALTON (FULDA)

Hail to the Lord's Anointed
Author: James Montgomery, 1771-1854 Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.6.7.6 Appears in 847 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Hail to the Lord's Anointed,
great David's greater Son!
Hail, in the time appointed,
His reign on earth begun!
He comes to break oppression,
to set the captive free,
to take away transgression,
and rule in equity.
2 He comes with help most speedy
to those who suffer wrong;
to save the poor and needy,
and help the weak be strong;
to give them songs for sighing,
their darkness turn to light,
whose souls, condemned and dying,
are precious in His sight.
3 He shall come down like showers
upon the fruitful earth;
love, joy, hope, like flowers,
spring in His path to birth:
before Him on the mountains
shall peace, the herald, go,
and righteousness in fountains,
from hill to valley flow.
4 Kings shall fall down before Him,
and gold and incense bring;
all nations shall adore Him,
His praise all people sing:
to Him shall prayer unceasing
And daily vows ascend;
His kingdom still increasing,
A kingdom without end.
5 In all the world victorious,
He on His throne shall rest,
from age to age more glorious,
all-blessing and all-blessed;
the tide of time shall never
His covenant remove;
His Name shall stand for ever,
His changeless name of love. Topics: Christ Promised His First Advent Used With Tune: CRÜGER
