Sunday Hymn: The Day of Resurrection

 

 

The day of re­sur­rect­ion!
Earth, tell it out abroad;
The Pass­ov­er of glad­ness,
The Pass­ov­er of God.
From death to life eter­nal,
From earth un­to the sky,
Our Christ hath brought us ov­er,
With hymns of vic­to­ry.

Our hearts be pure from ev­il,
That we may see aright
The Lord in rays eter­nal
Of re­sur­rect­ion light;
And list­en­ing to His ac­cents,
May hear, so calm and plain,
His own All hail! and, hear­ing,
May raise the vic­tor strain.

Now let the heav’ns be joy­ful!
Let earth the song be­gin!
Let all the world keep tri­umph,
And ev­ery­thing there­in!
Let all things seen and un­seen
Their notes in glad­ness blend,
For Christ the Lord hath ris­en,
Our joy that hath no end.

—John of Damascus
