Ye Sons and Daughters

Refrain 1:
Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia!Verse 1:
Ye sons and daughters, let us sing!
The King of heav’n, the glorious King,
O’er death today rose triumphing.
Alleluia!Verse 2:
That night the apostles met in fear;
Amidst them came their Lord most dear,
And said, “My peace be on all here.”
Alleluia!Verse 3:
When Thomas first the tidings heard,
How they had seen the risen Lord,
He doubted the disciples’ word.
Alleluia!Verse 4:
“My pierced side, O Thomas, see;
My hands, my feet, I show to thee;
Not faithless, but believing be.”
Alleluia!Verse 5:
No longer Thomas then denied,
He saw the feet, the hands, the side;
“Thou art my Lord and God,” he cried.
Alleluia!Verse 6:
How blest are they who have not seen,
And yet whose faith has constant been,
For they eternal life shall win.
Alleluia!Refrain 2:
Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia!

Now The Green Blade Rises

Verse 1:
Now the green blade rises, from the buried grain,
Wheat that in dark earth many days has lain;
Love lives again, that with the dead has been:
Love is come again like wheat a rising green.Verse 2:
In the grave they laid Him, Love by hatred slain,
Thinking that He never would awake again,
Laid in the earth like grain that sleeps unseen:
Love is come again like wheat a rising green.Verse 3:
Forth He came at Easter, like the risen grain,
He that for three days in the grave had lain;
Raised from the dead, my living Lord is seen:
Love is come again like wheat a rising green.Verse 4:
When our hearts are wintry, grieving, or in pain,
Your touch can call us back to life again,
Fields of our hearts that dead and bare have been:
Love is come again like wheat a rising green.
