Page 514 - CHRIST the Lord is risen to-day, Sons of men, and angels say; Raise your joys and triumphs high; Sing, ye heavens, and earth reply. 2 Love's redeeming work is done ; Fought the fight, the battle won : Lo ! our Sun's eclipse is o'er ; Lo ! He sets in blood no more.
Page 496 - The tide of time shall never His covenant remove ; His name shall stand for ever : That name to us is— Love.
