Verse 1
The Lord is ris’n indeed,
And bids his members rise!
Ye saints by Jesus freed,
Pursue him to the skies:
This is the day the Lord hath made;
Rejoice, and be for ever glad.
Verse 2
On this triumphant day
Peculiarly his own,
He calls his church to pray,
And sing around his throne:
This is the day the Lord hath made;
Rejoice, and be for ever glad.
Verse 3
Jesus, to us impart
Thy resurrection’s power,
And teach our quicken’d heart
Its living Lord t’ adore,
To vie with the redeem’d above
Rejoicing in thy pard’ning love.
Verse 4
Us by thy peace assure
Thou dost our sins forgive,
And then our spirits pure
Unto thyself receive,
To keep the day of rest above
Rejoicing in thy heavenly love.
