Come, Let Us with Our Lord Arise

lyricist: Charles Wesley, 1763
Composer: Alexander Smith, circa 1925

Come

let us with our Lord arise

Our Lord

who made both earth and skies;

Who died to save the world He made

And rose tri­umph­ant from the dead;

He rose

the Prince of life and peace

And stamped the day for­ev­er His.

This is the day the Lord hath made

That all may see His love dis­played

May feel His re­sur­rect­ion’s pow­er

And rise again to fall no more

In per­fect right­eous­ness re­newed

And filled with all the life of God.

Then let us ren­der Him His own

With sol­emn pray­er ap­proach His throne

With meek­ness hear the Gos­pel word

With thanks His dy­ing love re­cord;

Our joy­ful hearts and voic­es raise

And fill His courts with songs of praise.
