Mark 13:7

• [Mar 13:7] O Lord Of Hosts, Who Didst Upraise

  O Lord of hosts, who didst upraise Strong captains to defend the right, In darker years and sterner days, And armèdst Israel for the fight; Thou madest Joshua true and strong, And David framed the battle song. And we must we battle yet? Must we, Who bear the tender Name divine, Still barter life for victory, Still glory in the crimson sign? The Crucified between us stands, And lifts on high His wounded hands. Lord, we are weak and willful yet, The fault is in our clouded eyes; But Thou, through anguish and regret, Dost make Thy faithless children wise; Through wrong, through hate, Thou dost approve The far off victories of love. And so, from out the heart of strife, Diviner echoes peal and thrill, The scorned delights, the lavished life, The pain that serves a nation’s will: Thy comfort stills the mourner’s cries, And love is crowned by sacrifice. As rains that weep the clouds away, As winds that leave a calm in heaven, So let the slayer cease to slay; The passion healed, the wrath forgiven, Draw nearer, bid the tumult cease, Redeemer, Savior, Prince of Peace!

Mark 16:5-6

• [Mar 16:6] Rise All Who Seek The Crucified

  Rise all who seek the Crucified, The God that once for sinners died, With lifted voice and heart adore, Chasing our griefs, and sins, and fears, The Sun of Righteousness appears, Appears, to set in blood no more. To death delivered in our stead, For us He rises from the dead, And life to all His members brings; He gives us, while He soars above, The dew of grace, the balm of love, And drops salvation from His wings. This day the Scripture is fulfilled, The Father now His Son has sealed, And owned Him for His Son with power; God from the belly of the earth Hath called Him forth to second birth, Nor let the greedy deep devour. Cast for our sins into the deep, His life hath saved the sinking ship, His life for ours a ransom given; But lo! on the third joyful morn Our Jonas doth for us return Emerging from His tomb to Heaven.

• [Mar 16:6] Low In The Grave He Lay

  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! Vainly they watch His bed, Jesus my Savior; Vainly they seal the dead, Jesus my Lord! Refrain Death cannot keep its Prey, Jesus my Savior; He tore the bars away, Jesus my Lord! Refrain
