9711. Hallow We With Praise The Day

Hallow we with praise the day
When Jesus chased the shades of death away
And from the tomb victorious rose,
That His saints with Him might rise
And dwell in light for ever beyond the skies.
Thou who hast saved us from our foes,
O Lord most mighty! Have mercy on us.
