Christ the Lord Is Risen Today

Author: Charles Wesley, 1707-88 Meter: 7.7.7.7 Appears in 1,177 hymnals First Line: "Christ the Lord is ris'n today!" Lyrics: 1 "Christ the Lord is ris'n today!" Saints on earth and angels say; Raise your joys and triumphs high; Sing, ye heav'ns, and earth, reply. 2 Love's redeeming work is done, Fought the fight, the battle won; Lo! Our Sun's eclipse is o'er; Lo! He sets in blood no more. 3 Vain the stone, the watch, the seal; Christ hath burst the gates of hell. Death in vain forbids His rise; Christ has opened Paradise. 4 Lives again our glorious King! Where, O death, is now thy sting? Once He died our souls to save; Where thy victory, O grave? 5 Soar we now where Christ has led; Foll'wing our exalted Head. Made like Him, like Him we rise; Ours the cross, the grave, the skies. 6 Hail the Lord of earth and heav'n! Praise to Thee by both be giv'n! Thee we greet triumphant now: Hail, the Resurrection Thou!

We too sing for joy, and say Alleluya! 3 He who bore all pain and loss Comfortless upon the Cross, Lives in glory now on high, Pleads for us, and hears our cry. Alleluya! 4 He whose path no records tell, Who descended into hell; Who the strong man armed hath bound, And in highest heaven is crowned. Alleluya! 5 Now he bids us tell abroad How the lost may be restored, How the penitent forgiven, How we too may enter heaven. Alleluya! 6 Thou, our Paschal Lamb indeed, Christ, to-day thy people feed; Take our sins and guilt away, That we all may sing for ay, Alleluya!

Christ, the Lamb for sinners giv'n, Reascends his native heav'n. 2 There the glorious triumph waits: Lift your heads, eternal gates. He has conquered death and sin; Take the King of glory in! 3 See, the heav'n its Lord receives, Yet he loves the earth he leaves; Though returning to his throne, Still he calls mankind his own. 4 See, he lifts his hands above; See, he shows the prints of love. Hark! His gracious lips bestow Blessings on his Church below. 5 Still for us he intercedes; His prevailing death he pleads. He, the first of all our race, Near himself prepares a place. 6 There we shall with you remain Partners in your endless reign, There your face unclouded view, Find our heav'n of heav'ns in you.

Jesus Our Brother, Kind and Good

Meter: 8.9.9.8 Appears in 5 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Jesus our brother, kind and good, Was humbly born in a stable rude, And the friendly beasts around him stood, Jesus our brother, kind and good. 2 "I," said the donkey, shaggy and brown, "I carried his mother uphill and down. I carried his mother to Bethlehem town. I," said the donkey shaggy and brown. 3 "I," said the cow, all white and red, "I gave him my manger for his bed. I gave him my hay to pillow his head. I," said the cow all white and red. 4 "I," said the sheep with curly horn, "I gave him my wool for his blanket warm. He wore my coat on Christmas morn. I," said the sheep with curly horn. 5 "I," said the dove from rafters high, "I cooed him to sleep, so he should not cry. We cooed him to sleep, my mate and I. I," said the dove from rafters high. 6 Thus every beast by some good spell, in the stable dark was glad to tell of the gift he gave Emmanuel, the gift he gave Emmanuel.
