All in an Easter garden
Hymnal: Complete Anglican Hymns Old and New #768 (2000) Topics: Year A Easter Day; Year B Easter Day; Year C Easter Day Lyrics: 1 All in an Easter garden,
before the break of day,
an angel came from heaven
and rolled the stone away.
When Jesus' friends came seeking,
with myrrh and spices rare,
they found the angels at the door,
but Jesus was not there.
2 All in an Easter garden,
where water lilies bloom,
the angels gave their message
beside an empty tomb:
'The Lord is here no longer,
come, see where once he lay;
the Lord of life is risen indeed,
for this is Easter day.' Scripture: Mark 16:1-6 Languages: English Tune Title: [All in an Easter garden]

Hail! festal day, to endless ages known,
When Christ, o'er death victorious, gained his throne.
Now with the Lord of new and heavenly birth,
His gifts return to grace the springing earth.
He reigns supreme, who died the death of shame;
And all created things adore his Name.
Fulfill thy promise, King of love, we pray!
The third morn brightens; rise, and come away.
No mouldering tomb shall hold thee in repose;
No stone the ransom of the world enclose.
Who holdest all things in thy hollowed hand,
No rocky barrier can before thee stand.
Cast off thy grave-clothes; let them there remain:
Come forth to us, our All, our only gain.
155
Creator, Fount of Life, thou knowest the grave;
And thence returning, thou art strong to save.
Light of the world, show us thy face once more,
The day that died with thee, today restore.
A countless people, from death's fetters free,
Own thee Redeemer, join and follow thee.
The shades of death are pierced, his laws undone,
And trembling chaos flees the rising sun.
Hail! festal day, to endless ages known,
When Christ, o'er death victorious, gained his throne.
Amen.

And brings us life from heaven;
Wherefore let us all rejoice,
And praise our God with cheerful voice,
And sing loud hallelujahs.

Such mischief sin had wrought us;
For innocence dwelt not on earth,
And therefore death had brought us
Into thralldom from of old,
And ever grew more strong and bold,--
His shadow lay athwart us. Hallelujah!

Is come for our salvation,
The cause of death He has undone,
And stopped its devastation;
Ruined all his right and claim,
And left him nothing but the name,--
His sting is lost forever. Hallelujah!
4 It was a strange and dreadful strife,
When life and death contended;
The victory remained with Life,
The reign of death was ended;
Holy Scripture plainly saith,
That death is swallowed up by death,
Made henceforth a derision. Hallelujah!
5 Here the true Paschal Lamb we see,
Whom God so freely gave us;
He died on the accursed tree,
So strong His love! to save us:
See! His blood doth mark our door,
Faith points to it, death passes o'er,--
The murd'rer cannot harm us. Hallelujah!

Whereto the Lord invites us;
Christ is Himself the joy of all,
The sun which warms and lights us:
By His grace He doth impart
Eternal sunshine to the heart;
The night of sin is ended. Hallelujah!

On the true Bread of heaven;
The Word of grade hath purged away
The old and wicked leaven:
Christ alone our souls will feed,
He is our meat and drink indeed;
Faith lives upon no other. Hallelujah! Languages: English Tune Title: TORGAU (Christ lag in Tdesbanden)

Din Løser, Jesu Brud
Som for dig døde,
Og kom fra Døden ud!
Han gik i Borgen
For os, vor bedste Ven,
Sank som i Sorgen
Og Døden ganske hen,
Men Paaske-Morgen
Da fik vi ham igjen.
2 O, al min Glæde!
Jeg løber dig imod,
Din Grav at væde
Med Glæde-Taarers Flod.
O, tusind Gange
Velkommen fra min Straf,
Fra dine mange
Og svare Piners Hav,
Fra din den trange
Og mørke Død og Grav!
3 Vor Nat er svunden
For Naadens lyse Dag,
Og vi har vunden
Med Ære al vor Sag.
Gid ingen vanke
I Sorgens Mørke meer,
Derpaa at anke,
Hvad os i Verden sker,
Da vi de blanke
Guds Himle aabne ser!
4 Nu er mig Døden
Og Livet begge kjær,
Er det fornøden
At leve lidet her,
I Jesu Naade
Mit Levnet skal bestaa,
Den Livets Maade
Er sød at tænke paa,
Saa kan jeg baade
I Sorg og Glæde gaa.
5 Men skal jeg træde
Til Gravens mørke Port,
Ja ret med Glæde
Den Gang skal blive gjort;
Med Brudemine
Jeg hilse vil min Død,
Har Jesus Sine
Dog ikke gjort den sød?
Traads Dødens Pine,
Jeg dør i Jesu Skjød!
6 Kom, søde Leie
I Gravens stille Borg!
Dig kan jeg eie
Foruden Synd og Sorg;
Traads dine Pile,
Du hele Mørkheds Trop,
Der kan jeg hvile
Min arme, usle Krop,
Der kan jeg smile,
Naar jeg igjen skal op! Languages: Norwegian

At the Lamb's high feast we sing
Author: Robert Campbell (1814-1868) Hymnal: Ancient and Modern #198 (2013) Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Topics: Easter Day Lyrics: 1 At the Lamb's high feast we sing
praise to our victorious King,
who hath washed us in the tide
flowing from his piercèd side;
praise we him, whose love divine
gives his sacred blood for wine,
gives his body for the feast,
Christ the victim, Christ the priest.
2 Where the Paschal blood is poured,
death's dark angel sheathes his sword;
Israel's hosts triumphant go
through the wave that drowns the foe.
Praise we Christ, whose blood was shed,
Paschal victim, Paschal bread;
with sincerity and love
eat we manna from above.
3 Mighty victim from the sky,
hell's fierce powers beneath thee lie;
thou hast conquered in the fight,
thou hast brought us life and light.
Now no more can death appal,
now no more the grave enthral:
thou hast opened paradise,
and in thee thy saints shall rise.
4 Easter triumph, Easter joy,
sin alone can this destroy;
from sin's power do thou set free
souls new-born, O Lord, in thee.
Hymns of glory and of praise,
risen Lord, to thee we raise;
holy Father, praise to thee,
with the Spirit, ever be. Scripture: 1 Corinthians 5:7-8 Languages: English Tune Title: SALZBURG (Hintze)

Thy great Father's and Thine own.

Sons of men! in humbler strain
Sing your mighty Savior's reign.
