Christ the Lord is risen to-day
Author: Cudworth Meter: 7.7.7.7 Appears in 1,174 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 118:24 Lyrics: 1 Christ the Lord is risen to-day,
Sons of men and angels say;
Raise your songs of triumph high;
Sing, ye heavens, and earth reply.
2 Love's redeeming work is done,
Fought the fight, the battle won;
Lo! our Sun's eclipse is o'er;
Lo! he sets in blood no more.
3 Vain the stone, the watch, the seal;
Christ hath burst the gates of hell;
Death in vain forbids his rise,
Christ hath opened Paradise.
4 Lives again our glorious King;
Where, O Death, is now thy sting?
Once he died our souls to save;
Where thy victory, boasting Grave?
5 Soar we now where Christ hath led,
Following our exalted Head:
Made like him, like him we rise;
Ours the cross, the grave, the skies.

Welcome, sweet day of rest
Author: Watts Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 763 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 118:24 Lyrics: 1 Welcome, sweet day of rest,
That saw the Lord arise;
Welcome to this reviving breast,
And these rejoicing eyes.
2 The King himself comes near,
And feasts his saints to-day;
Here we may sit and see him here,
And love, and praise, and pray.
3 One day amidst the place
Which Jesus dwells within,
Is sweeter than ten thousand days
Of pleasurable sin.
4 My willing soul would stay
In such a frame as this,
And sit and sing herself away
To everlasting bliss.

O Thou, in Whose Presence
Author: Joseph Swain Appears in 495 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 118:14 First Line: O Thou, in whose presence my soul takes delight Lyrics: 1 O Thou, in whose presence my soul takes delight,
On whom in affliction I call,
My comfort by day and my song in the night,
My hope, my salvation, my all.
2 Where dost Thou, dear Shepherd, resort with Thy sheep,
To feed them in pastures of love?
Say, why in the valley of death should I weep,
Or alone in this wilderness rove?
3 O why should I wander, an alien from Thee,
Or cry in the desert for bread?
Thy foes will rejoice when my sorrows they see,
And smile at the tears I have shed.
4 He looks! and ten thousands of angels rejoice,
And myriads wait for His word;
He speaks! and eternity, filled with His voice,
Re-echoes the praise of the Lord.
5 Dear Shepherd! I hear, and will follow Thy call;
I know the sweet sound of Thy voice;
Restore and defend me, for Thou art my all,
And in Thee I will ever rejoice.

Eternal Father, Strong to Save
Author: W. Whiting Appears in 424 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 118 Lyrics: 1 Eternal Father, strong to save,
Whose arm restrains the restless wave,
Who told the mighty ocean deep
Its own appointed bounds to keep:
We cry, O God of majesty,
For those in peril on the sea.
2 O Christ, whose voice the waters heard
And hushed their raging at your word,
Who walked across the surging deep
And in the storm lay calm in sleep:
We cry, O Lord of Galilee,
For those in peril on the sea.
3 Creator Spirit, by whose breath
Were fashioned sea and sky and earth;
Who made the stormy chaos cease
And gave us life and light and peace:
We cry, O Spirit strong and free,
For those in peril on the sea.

Preserve their lives in danger's hour;
From rock and tempest, flood and flame,

Glad hymns of praise from land and sea. Topics: Authority of God; Gratitude; Petition; Trinity; Trust in God Used With Tune: MELITA Text Sources: Revised: Hymns For Today's Chruch, 1982
