The Day of Resurrection!
Author: J. M. Neale; John of Damascus Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 518 hymnals Lyrics: 1 The day of resurrection!
Earth, tell it out abroad;
The Passover of gladness,
The Passover of God.
From death to life eternal,
From earth unto the sky,
Our Christ hath brought us over,
With hymns of victory.
2 Our hearts be pure from evil,
That we may see a-right
The Lord in rays eternal
Of resurrection-light;
And, list'ning to His accents,
May hear, so calm and plain,
His own "All hail!" and, hearing,
May raise the victor-strain.
3 Now let the heav'ns be joyful;
Let earth her song begin;
Let all the world keep triumph,
And all that is therein;
In grateful exultation
Their notes let all things blend,
For Christ the Lord hath risen,
Our Joy that hath no end. Topics: Jesus Christ Resurrection Used With Tune: SALVATORI

The newborn life how glad;
What joy the happy earth to greet
In new, bright raiment clad.
Divine Renewer, Thee I bless;
I greet Thy going forth:
I love Thee in the loveliness
Of Thy renewed earth.
2. But O these wonders of Thy grace,
These nobler works of Thine,
These marvels sweeter far to trace,
These new births more divine,
This newborn glow of faith so strong,
This bloom of love so fair,
This newborn ecstasy of song
And fragrancy of prayer!
3 Creator, Spirit, work in me
These wonders sweet of Thine,
Divine Renewer, graciously
Renew this heart of mine.
Still let new life and strength up-spring,
Still let new joy be given;
And grant the glad new song to ring
Thro' the new earth and heav'n. Topics: God In Nature Spring Used With Tune: SERAPH

The Sands of Time Are Sinking
Author: Mrs. A. R. Cousin Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.6.7.5 Appears in 313 hymnals Lyrics: 1. The sands of time are sinking,
The dawn of heaven breaks,
The summer morn I've sighed for,
The fair sweet morn awakes;
Dark, dark hat been the midnight,
But day-spring is at hand,
And glory, glory dwelleth
In Emmanuel's land.
2. The King there in His beauty
Without a veil is seen;
It were a well-spent journey
Tho' seven deaths lay between:
The lamb with his fair army
Doth on Mount Zion stand,
And glory, glory dwelleth
In Emmanuel's land.
3. O Christ, He is the Fountain
The deep sweet Well of love!
The streams on earth I've tasted,
More deep I'll drink above:
There to an ocean fullness
His mercy doth expand,
And glory, glory dwelleth
In Emmanuel's land.
4. With mercy and with judgment
My web of time He wove,
And aye the dews of sorrow
Were lustered by His love:
I'll bless the hand that guided,
I'll bless the heart that planned,
When throned where glory dwelleth
In Emmanuel's land. Topics: The Future Life Death and Heaven Used With Tune: RUTHERFORD

The Spirit Breathes Upon the Word
Author: W. Cowper Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 263 hymnals Lyrics: 1. The Spirit breathes upon the Word,
And brings the truth to sight;
Precepts and promises afford
A sanctifying light,
A sanctifying light.
2. A glory gilds the sacred page,
Majestic, like the sun:
It gives a light to ev'ry age;
It gives, but borrows none,
It gives, but borrows none.
3. The hand that gave it still supplies
The gracious light and heat;
His truths upon the nations rise;
They rise, but never set,
They rise, but never set.
4. Let everlasting thanks be Thine,
For such a bright display,
As makes a world of darkness shine
With beams of heav'nly day,
With beams of heav'nly day.
5. My soul rejoices to pursue
The steps of Him I love,
Till glory breaks upon my view
In brighter worlds above,
In brighter worlds above.
