Come, Ye Faithful, Raise the Strain
Author: John Mason Neale; John of Damascus Hymnal: The United Methodist Hymnal #315b (1989) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Hymnal Title: The United Methodist Hymnal Lyrics: 1. Come, ye faithful, raise the strain
of triumphant gladness;
God hath brought forth Israel
into joy from sadness;
loosed from Pharaoh's bitter yoke
Jacob's sons and daughters,
led them with unmoistened foot
through the Red Sea waters.
2. 'Tis the spring of souls today;
Christ hath burst his prison,
and from three days' sleep in death
as a sun hath risen;
all the winter of our sins,
long and dark, is flying
from his light, to whom we give
laud and praise undying.
3. Now the queen of seasons, bright
with the day of splendor,
with the royal feast of feasts,
comes its joy to render;
comes to glad Jerusalem,
who with true affection
welcomes in unwearied strains
Jesus' resurrection.
4. Neither might the gates of death,
nor the tomb's dark portal,
nor the watchers, nor the seal
hold thee as a mortal;
but today amidst the twelve
thou didst stand, bestowing
that thy peace which evermore
passeth human knowing.
5. "Alleluia!" now we cry
to our King immortal,
who, triumphant, burst the bars
of the tomb's dark portal;
"Alleluia!" with the Son,
God the Father praising,
"Alleluia!" yet again
to the Spirit raising.

Come, You Faithful, Raise the Strain
Author: John of Damascus (675?-749?); John Mason Neale Hymnal: The Worshipbook #344 (1972) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Hymnal Title: The Worshipbook Lyrics: 1 Come, you faithful, raise the strain
Of triumphant gladness:
God has brought his Israel
Into joy from sadness;
Loosed from Pharaoh’s bitter yoke
Jacob’s sons and daughters;
Led them with unmoistened foot
Through the Red Sea waters.
2 'Tis the spring of souls today;
Christ has burst his prison,
And from three days' sleep in death
As a sun has risen;
All the winter of our sins,
Long and dark, is flying
From his light, to whom we give
Laud and praise undying.
3 Now the queen of seasons, bright
With the day of splendor,
With the royal feast of feasts,
Comes its joy to render;
Comes to glad Jerusalem,
Who with true affection
Welcome in unwearied strains
Jesus' resurrection.
4 Neither might the gates of death,
Nor the tomb’s dark portal,
Nor the watchers, nor the seal,
Hold you as a mortal:
But today amid the twelve
You did stand, bestowing
That your peace, which evermore
Passes human knowing.
5 "Alleluia!" now we cry
To our King immortal,
Who, triumphant, burst the bars
Of the tomb’s dark portal;
"Alleluia!" with the Son
God the Father praising;
"Alleluia!" yet again
To the Spirit raising.

Isaiah 35 (In the Desert)
Author: Christopher Idle Hymnal: Voices United #881 (1996) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Hymnal Title: Voices United First Line: When the King shall come again Lyrics: 1 When the King shall come again,
all his power revealing;
splendour shall announce his reign,
life and joy and healing:
earth no longer in decay,
hope no more frustrated;
this is God's redemption day
longingly awaited.
2 In the desert trees take root
fresh from God's creation;
plants and flowers and sweetest fruit
join the celebration;
rivers spring up from the earth,
barren lands adorning:
valleys, this is your new birth;
mountains, greet the morning.
3 Strengthen feeble hands and knees;
fainting hearts, be cheerful!
God, who comes for such as these,
seeks and saves the fearful;
deaf ears, hear the silent tongues
sing away their weeping;
blind eyes, see the lifeless ones
walking, running, leaping.
4 There God's highway shall be seen
where no roaring lion,
nothing evil or unclean,
walks the road to Zion;
ransomed people homeward bound,
all your praises voicing,
see your Lord with glory crowned,
share in his rejoicing! Topics: liturgical Scripture Songs Scripture: Isaiah 35 Languages: English Tune Title: AVE VIRGO VIRGINUM
Isaiah 35 (In the Desert)
