Then dry your tears, and tune your songs, The Saviour lives again! 4 With cheerful hope may every saint The vale of death survey ; Then rise with his ascending Lord To realms of endless day. HYMN 188. L. M. [# or b ] Where Jesus bled. 1 From tribulation's gloomy vale, Where Jesus bowed, where Jesus bled, The suffering, conquering Lamb of God Shall lift on high his glorious head. 2 For rebel man the Saviour died ; For man he burst the rocky tomb, And oped by death a door of hope, That enters on the world to come. 3 The bow, the sword, the sting of death, Christ Jesus' death has turned away; And Achor's vale, this vale of tears, Now beams with everlasting day. HYMN 189. C. M. [6] Fountain opened. Drawn from Immanuel's veins, Lose all their guilty stains. That fountain in his day : O may I there, though vile as he, my away Shall never lose its power, Till all the ransomed of our God Be saved, to sin no more. 4 E’er since by faith I saw the stream, Thy flowing wounds supply, Redeeming love has been my theme, And shall be till I die. 5 But when this lisping, stammering tongue Lies silent in the grave, I'll sing thy power to save. HYMN 190. C. M. [b or #] Riches of the Cross. 1 With strange surprise the cross I view, Where Jesus for me died, What can I want beside ? My soul shall ask no more ; And this my heavenly store. And earthly honours fade : The cross my honour made. 4 O had I Gabriel's tongue, to sing The honours of my Lord, And all his love record ! HYMN 191. L. M. [#] It is finished. 1 'Tis finished ! so the Saviour cried, And meekly bowed his head, and died. 'Tis finished ! yes, the race is run, And all the ancient prophets said, In Christ, the Saviour of mankind. 3 'Tis finished ! Aaron now no more Must stain his robes with purple gore : And Jewish rites no more remain. 4 'Tis finished ! let the joyful sound Be heard through all the nations round : RESURREOTION OF CHRIST. HYMN 192. 7s. M. [#] Christ's Resurrection. Death, yield up the mighty prey; Glowing with immortal bloom. Fame's eternal trump of praise ; Echo to the blissful sound. Glorious Hero, through them ride; Boundless empire is thine own. 4 Praise him, ye celestial choirs, Praise, and sweep your golden lyres ; HYMN 193. P. M. [#] Resurrection and Glory of Christ. 1 Behold, the bright morning appears, And Jesus revives from the grave e ! His rising removes all our fears, And proves him almighty to save. How strong were his tears and his cries ! The worth of his blood how divine ! Who rose, though he suffered for sin ! 2 The Head that was covered with thorns, The Man who on Calvary died, Whom sinners agreed to deride, And life has rewarded his pain; This is the true Lamb that was slain. 3 Believing we share in his joy, By faith we partake of his rest ; For with him we hope to be blest. Whose spirit shall guide us safe home; We'll praise him for all that is past, And trust him for all that's to come. HYMN 194. C. M. [#] Sabbath Reflections. And loud hosannas sung ; And praise on every tongue. With strong compassion moved, To save the souls he loved. |
