Lift Your Glad Voices

Author: Henry Ware Jr. Meter: 10.11.11.11.12.11.10.11 Appears in 162 hymnals Scripture: 1 Corinthians 15 First Line: Lift your glad voices in triumph on high Lyrics: 1 Lift your glad voices in triumph on high, for Jesus has risen and we shall not die. Vain were the terrors that gathered around him, and short the dominion of death and the grave. He burst from the fetters of evil that bound him, resplendent in glory, to live and to save. Loud was the chorus of angels on high, the Savior has risen, and we shall not die. 2 Glory to God, in full anthems of joy; the being God gave us, death cannot destroy. Sad were the life we may part with tomorrow, if tears were our birthright and death were our end. But Jesus has cheered the deep valley of sorrow, and bade us, immortal, to heaven ascend. Lift then your voices in triumph on high, for Jesus has risen, and we shall not die.

Sing with All the Saints in Glory

Author: William J. Irons Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 106 hymnals Scripture: 1 Corinthians 15 Lyrics: 1. Sing with all the saints in glory, sing the resurrection song! Death and sorrow, earth's dark story, to the former days belong. All around the clouds are breaking, soon the storms of time shall cease; in God's likeness we, awaking, know the everlasting peace. 2. O what glory, far exceeding all that eye has yet perceived! Holiest hearts, for ages pleading, never that full joy conceived. God has promised, Christ prepares it, there on high our welcome waits. Every humble spirit shares it; Christ has passed th'eternal gates. 3. Life eternal! heaven rejoices: Jesus lives, who once was dead. Join we now the deathless voices; child of God, lift up your head! Patriarchs from the distant ages, saints all longing for their heaven, prophets, psalmists, seers, and sages, all await the glory given. 4. Life eternal! O what wonders crowd on faith; what joy unknown, when, amidst earth's closing thunders, saints shall stand before the throne! O to enter that bright portal, see that glowing firmament; know, with thee, O God Immortal, "Jesus Christ whom thou has sent!"

Author: Faber Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 84 hymnals Scripture: 1 Corinthians 15:10 Lyrics: 1 Oh, gift of gifts! oh, grace of faith! My God, how can it be That thou, who hast discerning love, Shouldst give that gift to me? 2 There was a place, there was a time, Whether by night or day, Thy Spirit came, and left that gift, And went upon his way. 3 How many hearts thou might'st have had, More innocent than mine! How many souls more worthy far Of that sweet touch of mine. 4 Oh, happy, happy that I am! If thou canst be, O faith, The treasure that thou art in life, What wilt thou be in death? 5 This choice, O God of goodness, then, I lovingly adore; Oh, give me grace to keep thy grace, And grace to merit more.
