This Is The Day The Lord Hath Made Hymn Lyrics

1

This is the day the Lord hath made,

He calls the hours His own ;

Let heaven rejoice, let earth be glad,

And praise surround the throne.

2

To-day He rose and left the dead,

And Satan’s empire fell :

To-day the saints His triumph spread,

And all His wonders tell.

3

Hosanna to th’ anointed King,

To David’s holy Son !

Help us, O Lord ! descend and bring

Salvation from Thy throne.

4

Blest be the Lord who comes to men

With messages of grace ;

Who comes in God His Father’s

To save our sinful race. [name

5

Hosanna, in the highest strains

The Church on earth can raise ;

The highest heavens in which He reigns

Shall give Him nobler praise.
