124. RESURRECTION AND SPIRITUAL LIFE

Previous
Next

​Author:  Johann Caspar Lavater (1741-1801)​
​Composer:  Johann Gottfried Schicht (1753-1823)​

1. O Thou who in the grave didst lay,
    O sacred be to us this day,
    For on this day our Lord arose
    In glory from His death repose.
 
2. How did Thy humble flocks rejoice
    When they saw Thee and heard Thy voice!
    O Lord, may we, though on this earth,
    Share with them all their peace and mirth!
 
3. O, Lord, Thou livest for us now;
    Our Lord and Jesus Christ art Thou!
    We know that Thou canst hear and see,
    When we sing songs of praise to Thee!
 
4. And now in Spirit Thou dost call
    From heaven to us one and all:
    “May peace be with thee, child of mine,
    For heaven’s kingdom shall be thine.”
 
5. Lest we forget Thy name we ask
    That pleasure be to us our task.
    Thou livest for us now and we
    Have faith to end our days in Thee.
 
6. Thy Spirit’s seal, O Lord, we pray
    Renew and strengthen in each day!
    And through Thy love so pure and kind,
    Draw up to heaven heart and mind.
 
7. Thy Spirit animate each heart;
    God’s holy love to us impart.
    Give us Thy likeness, pure and fair;
    For heaven’s kingdom us prepare!
 
8. May, Lord, Thy holy love to us
    Keep our hearts true and virtuous.
    Thou image of the Father dear,
    Make us like Thee, so pure and clear!

Special thanks to the Apostolic Christians who diligently labored to keep their rich musical heritage alive when most other denominations forsook it in the challenging battle of changing cultures.
​
Thanks be to those souls who labored to write and compose this treasure of praise, many now only known to GOD!

Above all, thanks, praise, and glory be to GOD!
