250. Again the Lord's own day is here

Again the Lord's own day is here,

The clay to Christian people dear,

As, week by week, it bids them tell

How Jesus rose from death and hell.

For by His flock their Lord declared

His resurrection should be shared;

And they who trust in Him to save

In Him are risen from the grave.

We, one and all, of Him possest

Are with exceeding treasures blest;

For all He did, and all He bare,

He gives us as our own to share.

Eternal glory, rest on high,

A blessed immortality,

True peace and gladness, and a throne,

Are all His gifts, and all our own.

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.
