CHRIST THE LORD IS RISEN TODAY

Christ the Lord is risen today, Alleluia!
Sons of men and angels say, “Alleluia!”
Raise your joys and triumphs high; Alleluia!
Sing ye heavens, and earth reply: “Alleluia!”

Vain the stone, the watch, the seal; Alleluia!
Christ has burst the gates of hell; Alleluia!
Death in vain forbids him rise; Alleluia!
Christ has opened paradise. Alleluia!

Lives again our glorious King; Alleluia!
Where, O Death is now thy sting? Alleluia!
Once he died, our souls to save; Alleluia!
Where thy victory, O grave? Alleluia!

Hail, the Lord of earth and heaven! Alleluia!
Praise to thee by both be given; Alleluia!
Thee we greet triumphant now; Alleluia!
Hail, the Resurrection, thou! Alleluia!

THIS IS AMAZING GRACE

Who breaks the power of sin and darkness?
Whose love is mighty and so much stronger?
The King of Glory—the King above all kings!

Who shakes the whole earth with holy thunder,
And leaves us breathless in awe and wonder?
The King of Glory—the King above all kings!

This is amazing grace,
This is unfailing love:
That you would take my place;
That you would bear my cross!
You laid down your life
That I would be set free!
Jesus, I sing for all that you’ve done for me!

Who brings our chaos back into order?
Who makes the orphan a son and daughter?
The King of Glory—the King above all kings!

Who rules the nations with truth and justice;
Shines like the sun in all of its brilliance?
The King of Glory—the King above all kings!

This is amazing grace,
This is unfailing love:
That you would take my place;
That you would bear my cross!
You laid down your life
That I would be set free!
Jesus, I sing for all that you’ve done for me!

Worthy is the Lamb who was slain,
Worthy is the King who conquered the grave!
Worthy is the Lamb who was slain,
Worthy is the King who conquered the grave!
Worthy is the Lamb who was slain,
Worthy is the King who conquered the grave!

Jesus, I sing for all that you’ve done for me!

This is amazing grace,
This is unfailing love:
That you would take my place;
That you would bear my cross!
You laid down your life
That I would be set free!
Jesus, I sing for all that you’ve done for me!

COME, YE SINNERS

Come, ye sinners, poor and wretched,
Weak and wounded, sick and sore;
Jesus, ready, stands to save you,
Full of pity, joined with power.
He is able, He is able;
He is willing; doubt no more.

Come ye needy, come, and welcome,
God’s free bounty glorify;
True belief and true repentance,
Every grace that brings you nigh.
Without money, without money
Come to Jesus Christ and buy.

Come, ye weary, heavy laden,
Bruised and broken by the fall;
If you tarry ’til you’re better,
You will never come at all.
Not the righteous, not the righteous;
Sinners Jesus came to call. 

Let not conscience make you linger,
Nor of fitness fondly dream;
All the fitness He requires
Is to feel your need of Him.
This He gives you, this He gives you,
‘Tis the Spirit’s rising beam.

Lo! The Incarnate God, ascended;
Pleads the merit of His blood.
Venture on Him; venture wholly,
Let no other trust intrude.
None but Jesus, none but Jesus
Can do helpless sinners good.

BY HIS WOUNDS

[sing according to font style: women, men, all]

By His wounds we are healed.
By His wounds we are healed.
By His wounds we are healed.
By His wounds
we are healed.

SWALLOWED UP DEATH

The whole of nature groans with longing,
We ache for that promised glory;
Still we rejoice because we know
Plans formed of old, faithful and sure. 

The whole of nature groans with longing,
We wait for that promised glory;
Still we rejoice because we know
That sorrow’s end is coming. 

He will swallow up death,
And wipe the tears from our faces;
He will swallow up death,
And wipe the tears from our faces!
We’ll sing, “This is our God we waited for,
And he saved us!”
He will swallow up death,
And wipe the tears from our faces!

Here in the darkness of our mourning,
We wait for the light that’s coming;
And on that day we will return,
With joy and gladness singing:

He will swallow up death,
And wipe the tears from our faces;
He will swallow up death,
And wipe the tears from our faces!
We’ll sing, “This is our God we waited for,
And he saved us!”
He will swallow up death,
And wipe the tears from our faces!

Behold your God, he will come and save you!
Behold your God, he will come and save you!

  Behold your God, he will come and save you!
  Behold your God, he will come and save you!

Behold your God, he will come and save you!
Behold your God, he will come and save you!

And he will swallow up death,
And wipe the tears from our faces;
He will swallow up death,
And wipe the tears from our faces!
We’ll sing, “This is our God we waited for,
And he saved us!”
He will swallow up death,
And wipe the tears from our faces!
