On what dost thou depend? Art thou a stranger still To Christ, the sinner’s Friend? Soon thou must leave thy all below, And then, O then, what wilt thou do? 4 Christians, lift up your heads; Say, what has Jesus done?

Let Christians sing Lyrics: 1 Christ is alive! Let Christians sing. The cross stands empty to the sky. Let streets and homes with praises ring. Love, drowned in death, shall never die. 2 Christ is alive! No longer bound To distant years in Palestine, But saving, healing, here and now, And touching ev'ry place and time. 3 In ev'ry insult, rift, and war, Where color, scorn or wealth divide, Christ suffers still, yet loves the more, And lives, where even hope has died. 4 Women and men, in age and youth, Can feel the Spirit, hear the call, And find the way, the life, the truth, Revealed in Jesus, freed for all. 5 Christ is alive, and comes to bring Good news to this and ev'ry age, Till earth and sky and ocean ring With joy, with justice, love and praise.

Awake, my soul, and sing of him who died for thee, and hail him as thy matchless King through all eternity. 2 Crown him the Lord of life, who triumphed o'er the grave, and rose victorious in the strife for those he came to save. His glories now we sing, who died and rose on high, who died eternal life to bring, and lives that death may die. 3 Crown him the Lord of peace, whose power a sceptre sways from pole to pole, that wars may cease, absorbed in prayer and praise. His reign shall know no end; and round his piercèd feet fair flowers of Paradise extend their fragrance ever sweet. 4 Crown him the Lord of love; behold his hands and side, rich wounds yet visible above, in beauty glorified. All hail, Redeemer, hail! for thou hast died for me: thy praise shall never, never fail throughout eternity. Languages: English Tune Title: DIADEMATA
