Again the Lord’s own day is here

Again the Lord’s own day is here,
the day to Christian people dear,
when Jesus Christ, the church’s head,
arose in power and left the dead.

2. By all his flock, our Lord declared,
his resurrection shall be shared;
and we who trust in him to save
with him are risen from the grave.

3. For all his suffering on the cross
was to redeem our shame and loss;
we, one and all, by him possessed,
are with immortal treasures blessed.

4. Eternal glory, rest on high,
a holy immortality,
true peace and gladness, and a throne,
are all his gifts, and all our own.

5. And therefore, Lord, to you we sing,
O Prince of peace, eternal King;
your love we praise, your name adore,
on this your day and evermore.
