Christ the Lord is ris’n today, Alleluia!
Sons of man and angels say, Alleluia!
Raise your joys and triumphs high, Alleluia!
Sing ye heav’ns and earth reply, Alleluia!
2
Lives again our glorious King, Alleluia!
Where, O death, is now thy sting? Alleluia!
Dying once He all doth save, Alleluia!
Where thy victory, O grave? Alleluia!

Love’s redeeming work is done, Alleluia!
Fought the fight, the battle won, Alleluia!
Death in vain forbids Him rise, Alleluia!
Christ hath opened Paradise, Alleluia!

Soar we now where Christ has led, Alleluia!
Following our exalted Head, Alleluia!
Made like Him, like Him we rise, Alleluia!

705 Take the Name of Jesus With You
1
Take the name of Jesus with you,
Child of sorrow and of woe—
It will joy and comfort you,
Take it then where’er you go.
Precious name, Oh how sweet!
Hope of earth and joy of heav’n,
Precious name, Oh, how sweet—
Hope of earth and joy of heav’n.
2
Take the name of Jesus ever
As a shield from ev’ry snare;
If temptations ‘round you gather,
Breathe that holy name in prayer.
Precious name, Oh how sweet!
Hope of earth and joy of heav’n,
Precious name, Oh, how sweet—
Hope of earth and joy of heav’n.
3
Oh, the precious name of Jesus;
How it thrills our souls with joy,
When His loving arms receive us
And His songs our tongues employ!
Precious name, Oh how sweet!
Hope of earth and joy of heav’n,
Precious name, Oh, how sweet—
Hope of earth and joy of heav’n.
4
At the name of Jesus bowing,
Falling prostrate at His feet,
King of kings in heav’n we’ll crown Him
When our journey is complete.
Precious name, Oh how sweet!
Hope of earth and joy of heav’n,
Precious name, Oh, how sweet—
Hope of earth and joy of heav’n.
396 When the Roll is Called Up Yonder
1
When the trumpet of the Lord shall sound, and time shall be no more,
And the morning breaks, eternal bright and fair;
When the saved of earth shall gather over on the other shore,
And the roll is called up yonder, I’ll be there.
When the roll is called up yonder,
When the roll is called up yonder,
When the roll is called up yonder,
When the roll is called up yonder, I’ll be there.
2
On that bright and cloudless morning when the dead in Christ shall rise,
And the glory of His resurrection share;
When His chosen ones shall gather to their home beyond the skies,
And the roll is called up yonder, I’ll be there.
When the roll is called up yonder,
When the roll is called up yonder,
When the roll is called up yonder,
When the roll is called up yonder, I’ll be there.
3
Let us labor for the Master from the dawn till setting sun,
Let us talk of all His wondrous love and care;
Then when all of life is over, and our work on earth is done,
And the roll is called up yonder, I’ll be there.
When the roll is called up yonder,
When the roll is called up yonder,
When the roll is called up yonder,
When the roll is called up yonder, I’ll be there.
51 Blessed Assurance
1
Blessed assurance, Jesus is mine!
O what a foretaste of glory divine!
Heir of salvation, purchase of God,
Born of His Spirit, washed in His blood.
This is my story, this is my song,
Praising my Saviour all the day long;
This is my story, this is my song:
Praising my Saviour all the day long.
2
Perfect submission, perfect delight,
Visions of rapture now burst on my sight;
Angels descending bring from above,
Echoes of mercy, whispers of love.
This is my story, this is my song,
Praising my Saviour all the day long;
This is my story, this is my song:
Praising my Saviour all the day long.
3
Perfect submission, all is at rest,
I in my Saviour am happy and blest,
Watching and waiting, looking above,
Filled with His goodness, lost in His love.
This is my story, this is my song,
Praising my Saviour all the day long;
This is my story, this is my song:
Praising my Saviour all the day long.

Her pure sacrifice of love,
