60. CHRIST, THE RESURRECTED

Previous
Next

​Author:  Albert Knapp (1798-1864)
​Composer:  Philipp Nicolai, 1599 (1556-1608)​

​1. Praise to Jesus who has risen!
    Delivered from death’s bond and prison,
    Appears triumphant God’s own Son
    Thru the heavens’ spacious arches
    Resound the joyful songs of gladness,
    And peace doth glow around God’s throne.
    Praise Him who ever lives,
    Who life and comfort gives,
    Christ the Saviour, And to our God!
    Death’s dark abode is banished by His conq’ring rod.
 
2. Thou to whom all is subjected,
    Art now our Priest and King elected
    Such power God with Thee has shared!
    Joyful is Thy lot and glorious;
    And we Thy host at last victorious,
    Shall equal glories find prepared.
    Upon Thy altar, Lord,
    Thy blood for all was poured
    For remission; in pureness we
    Forever free. Thy holy priesthood now shall be.
 
3. On that resurrection morning,
    Now free from sorrow, grief and mourning
    Thy throng shall see Thy heav’nly light.
    There we’ll see in bliss eternal,
    Thee, Jesus, Sun of grace supernal,
    Behold Thy face. O sacred sight!
    For that new Fatherland
    Our bodies by Thy hand
    Shall be transformed; Then we’ll be free.
    Redeemed by Thee in whom all things renewed shall be.
 
4. O Thou resurrected Saviour!
    Look down upon Thy friends with favor
    Who dwell yet in this earthly vale!
    Come, Belov’d, that we may meet Thee,
    And when in joy and love we greet Thee,
    Thy glory unto us reveal!
    O blessed shall all be
    Who are by faith in Thee
    Resurrected. All who from death
    To life are brought, sustain their faith, O Son of God!

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!
