1 O sons and daughters, let us sing!
The King of heaven, the glorious King,
o'er death and hell rose triumphing.
Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
2 That Easter morn, at break of day,
the faithful women went their way
to seek the tomb where Jesus lay:
Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
3 An angel clad in white they see,
who sat and spoke unto the three,
"Your Lord doth go to Galilee."
Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
4 That night the apostles met in fear;
amidst them came their Lord most dear,
and said, "My peace be on all here."
Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
5 So, on this holy day of days,
with faith in God our voices raise,
in laud and jubilee and praise.
Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
[Additional verses for the Second Sunday of Easter:]
1 When Thomas first the tidings heard,
how they had seen the risen Lord,
he doubted the disciples' word.
Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
2 "My piercèd side, O Thomas, see;
my hands, my feet, I show to thee;
not faithless, but believing be."
Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
3 No longer Thomas then denied;
he saw the feet, the hands, the side;
"Thou art my Lord and God," he cried.
Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
4 How blest are they who have not seen,
and yet whose faith has constant been,
for they eternal life shall win.
Hallelujah! Hallelujah!

Unto Us a Boy is Born

King of all creation,
came he to a world forlorn,
the Lord of every nation,
the Lord of every nation.
2 Christ from heaven descending low
comes, on earth a stranger;
ox and ass their owner know;
becradled in the manger,
becradled in the manger.
3 Herod then with fear was filled:
"A prince," he said, "in Jewry!"
All the little boys he killed
at Bethlem in his fury,
at Bethlem in his fury.
4 Now may Mary's son, who came
so long ago to love us,
lead us all with hearts aflame
unto the joys above us,
unto the joys above us.
5 Omega and Alpha he!
Let the organ thunder,
while the choir with peals of glee
doth rend the air asunder,
doth rend the air asunder. Languages: English Tune Title: PUER NOBIS NASCITUR

While Shepherds Watched Their Flocks
Author: Nahum Tate Hymnal: Voices United #75 (1996) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Biblical Characters David; Biblical Characters Shepherds First Line: While shepherds watched their flocks by night Lyrics: 1 While shepherds watched their flocks by night
all seated on the ground,
the angel of the Lord came down,
and glory shone around.

had seized their troubled mind;
"glad tidings of great joy I bring
to you and humankind.
3 "To you, in David's town this day
is born of David's line
a Saviour, who is Christ the Lord;
and this shall be the sign:
4 "The heavenly babe you there shall find
to human view displayed,
all meanly wrapped in swathing bands,
and in a manger laid."
5 Thus spake the seraph; and forthwith
appeared a shining throng
of angels praising God, who thus
addressed their joyful song:
6 "All glory be to God on high,
and on earth be peace;
good will to all from highest heaven
begin and never cease." Languages: English Tune Title: WINCHESTER OLD

I Danced in the Morning
Author: Sydney Carter Hymnal: Voices United #352 (1996) Meter: Irregular Topics: Biblical Characters James and John; Biblical Characters Pharisees Refrain First Line: Dance, then, wherever you may be Lyrics: 1 I danced in the morning
when the world was begun,
and I danced in the moon
and the stars and the sun,
and I came down from heaven
and I danced on the earth;
at Bethlehem I had my birth.
[Refrain:]
Dance, then, wherever you may be;
I am the Lord of the dance, said he,
and I’ll lead you all, wherever you may be,
and I’ll lead you all in the dance, said he.
2 I danced for the scribe
and the pharisee,
but they would not dance
and they would not follow me;
I danced for the fishermen,
for James and John;
they came with me
and the dance went on. [Refrain]
3 I danced on the Sabbath
and I cured the lame;
the holy people
said it was a shame;
they whipped and they stripped
and they hung me high,
and they left me there
on a cross to die. [Refrain]
4 I danced on a Friday
when the sky turned black;
it’s hard to dance
with the devil on your back;
they buried my body
and they thought I’d gone,
but I am the dance
and I still go on. [Refrain]
5 They cut me down
and I leap up high;
I am the life
that will never, never die;
I’ll live in you
if you’ll live in me;
I am the Lord
of the dance, said he. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: LORD OF THE DANCE

To a Maid Whose Name Was Mary
Author: Gracia Grindal Hymnal: Voices United #14 (1996) Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.6 Topics: Biblical Characters Gabriel; Biblical Characters Mary, Mother of Jesus Lyrics: 1 To a maid whose name was Mary,
the angel Gabriel came.
“Fear not” the angel told her,
“I come to bring good news;
good news I come to tell you,
good news, I say, good news."
2 “For you are highly favoured
by the God the Lord of all,
who even now is with you.
You are on earth most blest;
you are most blest, most blessèd,
God chose you, you are blest!”
3 But Mary was most troubled
to hear the angel’s word.
What was the angel saying?
It troubled her to hear,
to hear the angel’s message,
it troubled her to hear.
4 “Fear not, for God is with you,
and you shall bear a child.
His name shall be called Jesus,
God’s offspring from on high.
And he shall reign forever,
forever reign on high.”
5 “How shall this be?” said Mary,
“that I should be with child.”
The angel answered quickly,
“The power of the Most High
will come upon you shortly,
your child shall be God’s child.”
6 As Mary heard the angel,
she wondered at his words.
“Behold, I am your handmaid,”
she said unto her God.
“So be it; I am ready
according to your word.” Languages: English Tune Title: ANNUNCIATION

Searcher and Savior of My Soul
Author: John Henry Livingston Hymnal: Rejoice in the Lord #40 (1985) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Biblical Characters Adam; Biblical Characters Cain Lyrics: 1 Searcher and Savior of my soul,
my Sun, my Shield, my sovereign Judge,
all things are naked to thy view,
my heart, my thoughts, my words, my ways.
2 Oft to thy Word my Soul repairs;
thence I my highest comforts draw;
though foes may fight and devils rage,
if God be for me, all is well.
3 Sustain me then with promised grace,
revive my heart, increase my faith:
seal to my soul thy pardoning love,
let strength be equal to my day.
4 Supremely wise and good and great;
O! search my heart and try my ways.
Thy work I love, thy judgments fear,
and tremble while I pray and praise.
