Christ My Song - 82
Come, ye saints, look here and wonder
(Thomas Kelly/Johannes Thomas Rüegg)
Come, ye saints, look here and wonder.
"Behold the place where they laid him." (Mark 16,6)
1. Come, ye saints, look here and wonder,
see the place where Jesus lay;
he has burst his bands asunder;
he has borne our sins away;
joyful tidings! joyful tidings!
Yes, the Lord is risen today.
Joyful tidings! joyful tidings!
Yes, the Lord is risen today. PDF - Midi
2. Jesus triumphs! sing ye praises:
by his death he overcame:
thus the Lord his glory raises;
thus he fills his foes with shame:
sing ye praises! sing ye praises!
praises to the Victor's name.
Sing ye praises! sing ye praises!
praises to the Victor's name.
3. Jesus triumphs! countless legions
come from heaven to meet their King:
soon, in yonder blessed regions,
they shall join his praise to sing.
Song eternal, song eternal
shall through heaven's high arches ring.
Song eternal, song eternal
shall through heaven's high arches ring.
Thomas Kelly, Hymns on various passages of Scripture, ca. 1853, Hymn 36 (Repetitions added).
