All Ye That Seek the Lord Who Died (EN 4044)

EN 4044 All Ye That Seek the Lord Who Died

Luke.24.23

Versi Version 1

1

All ye that seek the Lord Who died,

Your God for sinners crucified,

Prevent the earliest dawn, and come

To worship at His sacred tomb.

2

Bring the sweet spices of your sighs,

Your contrite hearts, and streaming eyes,

Your sad complaints, and humble fears;

Come, and embalm Him with your tears.

3

While thus ye love your souls t’employ,

Your sorrow shall be turned to joy:

Now, let all your grief be o’er!

Believe, and ye shall weep no more.

4

An earthquake hath the cavern shook,

And burst the door, and rent the rock;

The Lord hath sent His angel down,

And he hath rolled away the stone.

5

As snow behold his garment white,

His countenance as lightning bright:

He sits, and waves a flaming sword,

And waits upon his rising Lord.

6

The third auspicious morn is come,

And calls your Savior from the tomb,

The bands of death are torn away,

The yawning tomb gives back its prey.

7

Could neither seal nor stone secure,

Nor men, nor devils make it sure?

The seal is broke, the stone cast by,

And all the powers of darkness fly.

8

The body breathes, and lifts His head,

The keepers sink, and fall as dead;

The dead restored to life appear,

The living quake, and die for fear.

9

No power a band of soldiers have

To keep one body in its grave:

Surely it no dead body was

That could the Roman eagles chase.

10

The Lord of Life is risen indeed,

To death delivered in your stead;

His rise proclaims your sins forgiv’n,

And show the living way to Heav’n.

11

Haste then, ye souls that first believe,

Who dare the Gospel-Word receive,

Your faith with joyful hearts confess,

Be bold, be Jesus’ witnesses.

12

Go tell the followers of your Lord

Their Jesus is to life restored;

He lives, that they His life may find;

He lives, to quicken all mankind.
