God hath sent His Angels to the earth again

Author: P. Brooks Hymnal: CHRC1920 #671 (1920) Lyrics: 1 God hath sent His Angels to the earth again, Bringing joyful tidings to the sons of men. They who first at Christmas, throng'd the heav'nly way, Now beside the tomb-door, sit on Easter Day. Refrain: Angels sing His triumph, as you sang His birth, "Christ the Lord is risen," "Peace, good-will on earth." 2 In the dreadful desert, where the Lord was tried, There the faithful Angels gathered at His side. And when in the garden, grief and pain and care Bowed Him down with anguish, they were with Him there. [Refrain] 3 Yet the Christ they honour, is the same Christ still, Who, in light and darkness, did His Father's will. And the tomb deserted, shineth like the sky, Since He passed out from it, into victory. [Refrain] 4 God has still His Angels, helping, at His word, All His faithful children, like their faithful Lord; Soothing them in sorrow, arming them in strife, Opening wide the tomb-doors, leading into Life. [Refrain] 5 Father, send Thine Angels unto us, we pray; Leave us not to wander, all along our way. Let them guard and guide us, wheresoe'er we be, Til our resurrection brings us home to Thee.

The pearly gates aside are rolled

Author: S. T. Francis Hymnal: CHRC1920 #674 (1920) Lyrics: 1 The pearly gates aside are rolled, The doors wide open stand, And heaven, with all its streets of gold, Its bright angelic band, Its cherub and its seraph choir, Await in blest accord, With burning love, and fond desire, The coming of their Lord. 2 He on Mount Olivet below, His well-beloved among, A benison must first bestow Upon the saintly throng. His hand is raised, the words are said Of love, with pity blent, While bowed in awe is every head, And every knee is bent. 3 He comes! He comes! from earth He soars! See how the living cloud Of angel wings around Him flings, Bright rays, His form to shroud While steadfastly, with upturned eye, The rapt Apostles gaze With Mary, at the deep-veiled sky, In silent still amaze. 4 He comes! He comes! lift up your heads, Ye gates, ye portals bright! Your Prince returns! His path He treads To meads of amber light. He is the King of Glory! Sing, Ye Heavens, with loud acclaim, Your God, your everlasting King. The Lord of Hosts His Name!

Sing, of life, life, life. And the strain raise again. Te Deum Laudamus, Dominum. 3 Forty days more with men Did the Lord live again, Blessed rites to ordain, And His Kingdom founded By the round world bounded. Sing of joy, joy, joy, Till it rise to the skies, Te Deum Laudamus, Dominum. 4 Rise, never to die, Having gone up on high To His Throne in the sky, He sent His Spirit Holy, To bless His people solely. Sing of joy, joy, joy, Praise His Name with acclaim, Te Deum Laudamus, Dominion. 5 With bright tongues as of flame, Then the Comforter came, In the Blessed One's Name Dissipating sadness, Bringing joy and gladness, Sing of joy, life, and peace: Him adore, ever more, Te Deum Laudamus, Dominum.
