Author: Venantius Fortunatus, c. 530-609; Theodore A. Lacey Hymnal: The Hymnal #184 (1916) Meter: 10.10 with refrain Topics: The Ascension Day First Line: Hail! festal day! to endless ages known Lyrics:
Hail! festal day! to endless ages known,
When God ascended to his starry throne.
Now with the Lord of new and heav'nly birth,
His gifts return to grace the springing earth.
Now glows the earth with painted flowers' array,
And warmer light unbars the gates of day.
Now Christ, from gloomy hell, comes triumphing,
And field and grove with clover and leafage spring.
The reign of death o'erthrown, he mounts on high,
Sent forth with joyous praise from sea and sky.
170
Loose now the captives, loose the prison door,
The fallen, from the deep, to light restore.
A countless people, from death's fetters free,
Own thee Redeemer, join, and follow thee.
Creator and Redeemer, Christ our Light!
The One begotten of the Father's might;
Coequal, Coeternal, thou to whom
The kingdom of the world decreed shall come;
Thou, looking on our race in darkness laid,
To rescue man, true Man thyself wast made.

anointed and ordained,

your power and praise
in all her songs.

can ever rival yours;

can turn aside your laws:
you reign above
each other name
of worth or fame,
the Lord of love!
3 Now from your Father's side
you make your people new;
since for our sins you died
our lives belong to you:
from our distress
you set us free
for purity
and holiness.
4 You call us to belong
within one body here;
in weakness we are strong
and all your gifts we share:
in you alone
we are complete
and at your feet
with joy bow down.
5 All strength is in your hand,
all power to you is given;
all wisdom to command
in earth and hell and heaven:
beyond all words
creation sings
the King of kings
and Lord of lords. Scripture: Matthew 28:18 Languages: English Tune Title: CHRISTCHURCH

O Thou, who thus exalted art
See the Conqueror mounts in triumph
Author: Christopher Wordsworth Hymnal: The Hymnal #522a (1916) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Topics: The Ascension Day Lyrics:
See the Conqueror mounts in triumph;
See the King in royal state,
Riding on the clouds, his chariot,
To his heavenly palace gate!
Hark! the choirs of angel voices
Joyful alleluias sing,
And the portals high are lifted
To receive their heavenly King.
Who is this that comes in glory,
With the trump of jubilee?
Lord of battles, God of armies,
He hath gained the victory!
478
He who on the cross did suffer,
He who from the grave arose,
He has vanquished sin and Satan;
He by death has spoiled his foes.
While he raised his hands in blessing,
He was parted from his friends
While their eager eyes behold him,
He upon the clouds ascends;
He who walked with God and pleased him,
Preaching truth and doom to come,
He, our Enoch, is translated
To his everlasting home.
Now our heavenly Aaron enters,
With his blood, within the veil;
Joshua now is come to Canaan,
And the kings before him quail;
Now he plants the tribes of Israel
In their promised resting-place;
Now our great Elijah offers
Double portion of his grace.
Thou hast raised our human nature
On the clouds to God's right hand:
There we sit in heavenly places,
There with thee in glory stand.
Jesus reigns, adored by angels;
Man with God is on the throne;
Mighty Lord, in thine Ascension,
We by faith behold our own.
Amen.
