christ Jesus lay in deaths strong bands for our offenses given but now at Gods right hand he stands and brings us life from heaven wherefore let us joyful be and sing to God right thankfully loud songs of alleluia alleluia no son of man could conquer death such mischief sin had wrought us for innocence dwelt not on earth and therefore death had brought us into thralldom from of old and ever grew more strong and bold and kept us in his bondage alleluia but Jesus christ Gods only son to our low state descended the cause of death he has undone his power forever ended ruined all his right and claim and left him nothing but the name his sting is lost forever alleluia it was a strange and dreadful strife when life and death contended the victory remained with life the reign of death was ended stripped of power no more it reigns an empty form alone remains deaths sting is lost forever alleluia here the true paschal lamb we see whom God so freely gave us he died on the accursed tree so strong his love to save us see his blood doth mark our door faith points to it death passes oer and satan cannot harm us alleluia so let us keep the festival where to the Lord invites us christ is himself the joy of all the sun that warms and lights us by his grace he doth impart eternal sunshine to the heart the night of sin is ended alleluia then let us feast this easter day on the true bread of heaven the word of grace hath purged away the old and wicked leaven christ alone our souls will feed he is our meat and drink indeed faith lives upon no other alleluia
