GRH 049 This Is the Day the Lord Hath Made

(1)
This is the day the Lord hath made;
He calls the hours His own;
Let heaven rejoice, let earth be glad,
And praise surround the throne.

(2)
Today He rose and left the dead,
And Satan’s empire fell;
Today the saints His triumph spread,
And all His wonders tell.

(3)
Hosanna to th’anointed King,
To David’s holy Son:
Help us, O Lord! descend and bring
Salvation from Thy throne.

(4)
Blest be the Lord, who comes to men
With messages of grace;
Who comes, in God His Father’s name,
To save our sinful race.
