Verse 1
Again the Lord’s own day is here, The day to Christian people dear, As, week by week, it bids them tell How Jesus rose from death and hell.

Verse 2
For by His flock their Lord declared His resurrection should be shared; And we who trust in Him to save With Him are risen from the grave.

Verse 3
We, one and all, of Him possessed, Are with exceeding treasures blessed, For all He did, and all He bare, He gives us as our own to share.

Verse 4
Eternal glory, rest on high, A blessèd immortality, True peace and gladness, and a throne, Are all His gifts, and all our own.

Verse 5
And therefore unto Thee we sing, O Lord of peace, eternal King; Thy love we praise, Thy name adore, Both on this day and evermore.
