Hail the Day That Sees Him Rise
Author: Charles Wesley Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Appears in 551 hymnals Hymnal Title: Calvin Hymnary Project Lyrics: 1 Hail the day that sees him rise, Alleluia!
to his throne beyond the skies. Alleluia!
Christ, the Lamb for sinners given, Alleluia!
enters now the highest heaven. Alleluia!
2 There for him high triumph waits; Alleluia!
lift your heads, eternal gates. Alleluia!
He has conquered death and sin; Alleluia!
take the King of glory in. Alleluia!
3 Highest heaven its Lord receives; Alleluia!
yet he loves the earth he leaves. Alleluia!
Though returning to his throne, Alleluia!
still he calls us all his own. Alleluia!
4 Still for us he intercedes; Alleluia!
his atoning death he pleads, Alleluia!
near himself prepares our place, Alleluia!
he the firstfruits of our race. Alleluia!
5 There we shall with you remain, Alleluia!
partners of your endless reign, Alleluia!
see you with unclouded view, Alleluia!
find our heaven of heavens in you. Alleluia!

Hymnal: A Choice Collection of Hymns and Spiritual Songs #LXV (1774) Hymnal Title: A Choice Collection of Hymns and Spiritual Songs First Line: Hail the Day, that sees him rise Lyrics: 1 Hail the Day, that sees him rise,
Ravish'd from our wishful Eyes;
Christ a while to Mortals giv'n,
Re-ascends his native Heav'n.
There the pompous Triumph waits,
Lift your Heads eternal Gates!
Wide unfold the radiant Scene,
Take the King of Glory in.
2 Him tho' highest Heav'n receives,
Still he loves the Earth he leaves;
Tho' returning to his Throne,
Still he calls Mankind his own:
Still for us he intercedes,
Prevalent his Death he pleads;
Nest himself prepares our Place,
Harbinger of human Race.
3 Master (may we ever say)
Taken from our Head to Day;
See thy faithful Servants see
Ever gazing up to thee!
Grant, tho' parted from our Sight:
High above yon azure Height,
Grant our Hearts may thither rise,
Following thee beyond the Skies.
4 Ever upward let us move,
Wafted on the Wings of Love;
Looking, when our Lord shall come,
Longing, gasping after Home;
There we shall with thee remain;
Partners of thine endless Reign;
There thy Face unclouded see,
Find our Heav'n of Heav'n in thee. Languages: English

Bradbury Hymnal Title: African Methodist Episcopal hymn and tune book Composer of "FULTON" in African Methodist Episcopal hymn and tune book William Bachelder Bradbury USA 1816-1868. Born at York, ME, he was raised on his father's farm, with rainy days spent in a shoe-shop, the custom in those days. He loved music and spent spare hours practicing any music he could find. In 1830 the family moved to Boston, where he first saw and heard an organ and piano, and other instruments. He became an organist at 15. He attended Dr. Lowell Mason's singing classes, and later sang in the Bowdoin Street church choir. Dr. Mason became a good friend. He made $100/yr playing the organ, and was still in Dr. Mason's choir. Dr. Mason gave him a chance to teach singing in Machias, ME, which he accepted. He returned to Boston the following year to marry Adra Esther Fessenden in 1838, then relocated to Saint John, New Brunswick. Where his efforts were not much appreciated, so he returned to Boston. He was offered charge of music and organ at the First Baptist Church of Brooklyn. That led to similar work at the Baptist Tabernacle, New York City, where he also started a singing class. That started singing schools in various parts of the city, and eventually resulted in music festivals, held at the Broadway Tabernacle, a prominent city event. He conducted a 1000 children choir there, which resulted in music being taught as regular study in public schools of the city. He began writing music and publishing it. In 1847 he went with his wife to Europe to study with some of the music masters in London and also Germany. He attended Mendelssohn funeral while there. He went to Switzerland before returning to the states, and upon returning, commenced teaching, conducting conventions, composing, and editing music books. In 1851, with his brother, Edward, he began manufacturring Bradbury pianos, which became popular. Also, he had a small office in one of his warehouses in New York and often went there to spend time in private devotions. As a professor, he edited 59 books of sacred and secular music, much of which he wrote. He attended the Presbyterian church in Bloomfield, NJ, for many years later in life. He contracted tuberculosis the last two years of his life.
