Hail the Day That Sees Him Rise
- Hail the day that sees him rise Alleluia!
to his throne beyond the skies. Alleluia!
Christ, the Lamb for sinners giv’n, Alleluia!
enters now the highest heav’n. Alleluia! - There for him high triumph waits; Alleluia!
lift your heads, eternal gates. Alleluia!
He has conquered death and sin; Alleluia!
take the King of glory in. Alleluia! - Highest heav’n its Lord receives; Alleluia!
yet he loves the ones he leaves. Alleluia!
Though returning to his throne, Alleluia!
still he calls us all his own. Alleluia! - Still for us he intercedes; Alleluia!
his atoning death he pleads, Alleluia!
near himself prepares our place, Alleluia!
he the firstfruits of our race. Alleluia!
