Hail the Day That Sees Him Rise
Author: Charles Wesley Hymnal: Rejoice in the Lord #331 (1985) Meter: 7.7.7.7 with alleluia Scripture: 2 Kings 2:3 Lyrics: 1 Hail the day that sees him rise, Alleluia!
to his throne beyond the skies, Alleluia!
Christ, awhile to mortals giv'n, Alleluia!
enters now his native heav'n, Alleluia!
2 See, he lifts his hand above! Alleluia!
See, he shows the prints of love! Alleluia!
Hark, his gracious lips bestow, Alleluia!
blessing on his church below, Alleluia!
3 Still for us he intercedes, Alleluia!
His prevailing death he pleads, Alleluia!
near himself prepares our place, Alleluia!
he the firstfruits of our race, Alleluia!
4 Master (we will ever say), Alleluia!
taken from our sight today, Alleluia!
see thy faithful servants, see, Alleluia!
ever gazing up to thee, Alleluia!
5 Grant, though parted from our sight, Alleluia!
high above yon azure height...Alleluia!
grant our hearts may thither rise, Alleluia!
following thee beyond the skies. Alleluia!
6 There we shall with thee remain, Alleluia!
partners of thy endless reign; Alleluia!
there thy face unclouded see, Alleluia!
find our heaven of heavens in thee. Alleluia!

Hail the Day That Sees Him Rise
See, the Conqueror Mounts in Triumph
Author: Christopher Wordsworth Hymnal: Rejoice in the Lord #334 (1985) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Scripture: 2 Kings 2:9-11 Lyrics: 1 See, the Conqu'ror mounts in triumph,
see the King in royal state
riding on the clouds, his chariot
to his heav'nly palace gate;
Hark! the choirs of angel voices
joyful Alleluias sing
and the portals high are lifted
to receive their heav'nly King.
2 Who is he that comes in glory
with the trump of jubilee?
Lord of battles, God of armies,
he has gained the victory.
He who on the cross did suffer,
he who from the grave arose,
he has vanquished sin and Satan,
he by death has spoiled his foes.
3 While he lifts his hands in blessing
he is parted from his friends;
while their eager eyes behold him,
he upon the clouds ascends;
he who walked with God and pleased him,
preaching truth and doom to come,
he, our Enoch, is translated
to his everlasting home.
4 Now our heav'nly Aaron enters
with his blood within the veil;
Joshua now is come to Canaan,
and the kings before him quail.
Now he plants the tribes of Israel
in their promised resting place,
now our great Elijah offers
double portion of his grace.
5 He has raised our human nature
on the clouds to God's right hand;
there we sit in heav'nly places,
there with thee in glory stand;
Jesus reigns, adored by angels,
mighty Lord, in thine Ascension
we by faith behold our own.

Elijah's mantle o'er Elisha cast.
Each age its solemn task may claim but once;
Make each one nobler, stronger than the last.
2 Anoint them prophets. Make their ears attent
To Thy divinest speech, their hearts awake
To human need, their lips make eloquent
To gird the right and ev'ry evil break.
3 Anoint them priests. Strong intercessors, they,
For pardon, and for charity and peace.
Ah, if with them the world might, now astray,
Find in our Lord from all its woes release!
4 Anoint them kings; aye, kingly kings, O Lord.
Anoint them with the Spirit of Thy Son.
Theirs not a jeweled crown, a blood-stained sword;
Theirs, by sweet love, for Christ a kingdom won.
5 Make them apostles, heralds of Thy Cross;
Forth may they go to tell all realms Thy grace.
Inspired of Thee, may they count all but loss
And stand at last with joy before Thy face.
