Easter Dawn 9am Service, Race St Pier

I Come to the Garden Alone

1. I come to the garden alone,

While the dew is still on the roses;

And the voice I hear, falling on my ear,

The Son of God discloses.

Refrain:

And He walks with me, and He talks with me,

And He tells me I am His own,

And the joy we share as we tarry there,

None other has ever known.

2. He speaks, and the sound of His voice

Is so sweet the birds hush their singing;

And the melody that He gave to me

Within my heart is ringing.

Refrain

3. I’d stay in the garden with Him

Tho’ the night around me be falling;

But He bids me go; thro’ the voice of woe,

His voice to me is calling.

Refrain

 

 Up From the Grave He Arose

1. Low in the grave he lay, Jesus my Savior,

waiting the coming day, Jesus my Lord!

Refrain:

Up from the grave he arose; with a mighty triumph o’er his foes;

He arose a victor from the dark domain, and he lives forever, with His saints to reign.

He arose! He arose! Hallelujah! Christ arose!

2. Vainly they watch his bed, Jesus my Savior,

vainly they seal the dead, Jesus my Lord!

Refrain

3. Death cannot keep its prey, Jesus my Savior;

he tore the bars away, Jesus my Lord!

Refrain

  

Oh, Happy Day!

(To be sung repeatedly:)

Oh happy day! (oh happy day)

Oh happy day! (oh happy day)

When Jesus washed (when Jesus washed)

When Jesus washed (when Jesus washed)

When Jesus washed (when Jesus washed)

He washed my sins away! (oh happy day)

Oh happy day! (oh happy day)
