Come, let us with our Lord arise,
Our Lord, who made both earth and skies;
Who died to save the world He made,
And rose triÂumphÂant from the dead;
He rose, the Prince of life and peace,
And stamped the day forÂevÂer His.
This is the day the Lord hath made,
That all may see His love disÂplayed,
May feel His reÂsurÂrectÂion’s powÂer,
And rise again to fall no more,
In perÂfect rightÂeousÂness reÂnewed,
And filled with all the life of God.
Then let us renÂder Him His own,
With solÂemn prayÂer apÂproach His throne,
With meekÂness hear the GosÂpel word,
With thanks His dyÂing love reÂcord;
Our joyÂful hearts and voicÂes raise,
And fill His courts with songs of praise.
