Hymn 128
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 262 hymnals Scripture: Mark 16:15 First Line: O preach my gospel, saith the Lord Lyrics:
"O preach my gospel," saith the Lord,
"Bid the whole earth my grace receive;
He shall be saved that trusts my word,
He shall be damned that won't believe.
"I'll make your great commission known,
And ye shall prove my gospel true,
By all the works that I have done,
By all the wonders ye shall do.
"Go heal the sick, go raise the dead,
Go cast out devils in my name;
Nor let my prophets be afraid,
Though Greeks reproach, and Jews blaspheme.
"Teach all the nations my commands,
I'm with you till the world shall end;
All power is trusted to my hands,
I can destroy, and I defend."
He spake, and light shone round his head
On a bright cloud to heav'n he rode;
They to the farthest nations spread
The grace of their ascended God.

Ye Christian heralds! go, proclaim
Author: Anon. Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 472 hymnals Scripture: Mark 16:15-20 Lyrics: 1 Ye Christian heralds! go, proclaim
Salvation through Immanuel's name;
To distant climes the tidings bear,
And plant the Rose of Sharon there.

With flaming zeal your breast inspire,
Bid raging winds their fury cease,
And hush the tempest into peace.
3 And when our labors all are o'er,
Then we shall meet to part no more--
Meet with the blood-bought throne, to fall,
And crown our Jesus--Lord of all!

And in highest heav'n is crowned.

That the Lamb is King of kings.

How we, too, may enter heaven.

That we all may sing for aye:

The cross stands empty to the sky.
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 every place and time.
3 Not throned afar, remotely high,
untouched, unmoved by human pains,
but daily, in the midst of life,
our Savior in the Godhead reigns.
4 In every insult, rift, and war,
where color, scorn or wealth divide,
Christ suffers still, yet loves the more,
and lives, where even hope has died.
5 Christ is alive, and comes to bring
good news to this and every age,
till earth and sky and ocean ring
with joy, with justice, love, and praise.

Celebrate this day of days!
Christ is risen! 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!

O day of joy and light,
O balm of care and sadness,

On thee the high and lowly
before th'eternal throne
sing "Holy, holy, holy"
to the great Thee-in-One.

the light first had its birth,
on thee for our salvation
Christ rose from depths of earth;
on thee our Lord victorious,
the Spirit sent from heav'n,
and thus on thee most glorious,
a triple light was giv'n.

from this our day of rest,
we reach the rest remaining
to spirits of the blest.

thunder like a mighty flood.
Jesus, out of every nation,
has redeemed us by his blood.

are we left in sorrow now;
Alleluia! he is near us;

Though the cloud from sight received him
when the forty days were o'er,
shall our hearts forget his promise,
"I am with you evermore"?
3 Alleluia! heavenly High Priest,
here on earth our help, our stay;
Alleluia! hear the sinful
cry to you from day to day.
Intercessor, Friend of sinners,
earth's Redeemer, hear our plea,
where the songs of all the sinless
sweep across the crystal sea.
