Christ Jesus lay in Death's Strong Bands

Author: Martin Luther; Richard Massie Hymnal: The Lutheran Hymnal #195 (1941) Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.8.7.4 Scripture: Acts 2:24 Lyrics: 1 Christ Jesus lay in death's strong bands, For our offenses given; But now at God's right hand He stands And brings us life from heaven; Therefore let us joyful be And sing to God right thankfully Loud songs of hallelujah! Hallelujah! 2 It was a strange and dreadful strife When Life and Death contended; The victory remained with Life, The reign of Death was ended; Holy Scripture plainly saith That Death is swallowed up by Death, His sting is lost forever. Hallelujah! 3 Here the true Paschal Lamb we see, Whom God so freely gave us; He died on the accursed tree-- So strong His love!--to save us. See, His blood doth mark our door; Faith points to it, Death passes o'er, And Satan cannot harm us. Hallelujah! 4 So let us keep the festival Whereto the Lord invites us; Christ is Himself the Joy of all, The Sun that warms and lights us. By His grace He doth impart Eternal sunshine to the heart; The night of sin is ended. Hallelujah! 5 Then let us feast this Easter Day On Christ, the Bread of heaven; The Word of Grace hath purged away The old and evil leaven. Christ alone our souls will feed, He is our meat and drink indeed; Faith lives upon no other. Hallelujah! Amen.

To him who sits upon the throne, the Lamb once slain but raised again, be all the glory he has won, all thanks and praise! Amen, amen. 2 For deep in prophets' sacred page, and grand in poets' winged word, slowly in type, from age to age the nations saw their coming Lord; till through the deep Judean night rang out the song, "Good will to men!" What angels sang in heav'nly light re-echoes now, "Good will!" Amen. 3 That life of truth, those deeds of love, that death of pain mid hate and scorn— these all are past, and now above he reigns, our King once crowned with thorn. Lift up your heads, you heav'nly gates! So sang his hosts, unheard by men. Lift up your heads, for you he waits. We lift them up. Amen, amen. 4 Then sing to Christ a mighty song; extol his name, his mercies tell! Sing, heav'nly hosts, your praise prolong, and all on earth, your anthem swell! All hail, O Lamb for sinners slain! Forever let the song ascend! To Christ the King, enthroned to reign, all glory, pow'r! Amen, amen. Topics: Praise and Adoration Languages: English Tune Title: O GROSSER GOTT
