1 Ere yet the dawn has filled the skies, Behold my Saviour Christ arise. He drives away our sins’ dark night, And brings us joy and life and light. Hallelujah! 2 O stronger Thou than death and hell, Where is the foe Thou canst not quell? What heavy stone Thou canst not roll From off the prisoned, anguished soul? Hallelujah! 3 If Jesus lives, can I be sad? I know He loves me, and am glad; Though al...

1 This is the Lord’s triumphal day, Who through His death our death did slay: Hallelujah, hallelujah!

Lo, He sets in blood no more! 3 Vain the stone, the watch, the seal; Christ has burst the gates of hell. Death in vain forbids His rise; Christ has opened Paradise. 4 Liv...

Sermon by Rev. Jake Zabel of St. John's Evangelical Lutheran Church, Dalby, Queensland, Australia on John 1:1-18

1 Christ the Lord is risen today: Christians, haste your vows to pay; Offer ye your praises meet At the paschal victim’s feet. For the sheep the Lamb has bled, Sinless in the sinner’s stead. “Christ is risen!” today we cry; Now He lives no more to die. 2 Christ, the victim undefiled, Man to God has reconciled; Whilst in strange and awful strife Met together death and life. Christians, on this happ...

1 Christ the Lord is risen again; Christ has broken every chain.

Hallelujah! 4...

1 Christ Jesus lay in death’s strong bands, For our offences given; But now at God’s right hand He stands, And brings us life from heaven; Wherefore let us joyful be, And sing to God right thankfully Our songs of hallelujah. Hallelujah! ‘ 2 It was a strange and dreadful strife When life and death contended; The victory remained with life, The reign of death was ended; Holy Scripture clearly saith...

1 Jesus Christ is risen today, Alleluia! Our triumphant holy day. Alleluia Who did once, upon the cross, Alleluia Suffer to redeem our loss. Alleluia 2 Hymns of praise then let us sing Unto Christ, our heavenly King, Who endured the cross and grave, Sinners to redeem and save. 3 But the pains which He endured Our salvation have procured; Now above the sky He’s King, Where the angels ever sing.

1 Ride on, ride on in majesty! Hark, all the tribes Hosanna cry! O Saviour meek, pursue Thy road With palms and scattered garments strowed. 2 Ride on, ride on in majesty! In lowly pomp ride on to die; O Christ, Thy triumphs now begin, O’er captive death and conquered sits. 3 Ride on, ride on in majesty! The angel armies of the sky Look down with sad and wondering eyes To see the approaching sacrif...

1 All glory, laud, and honour To Thee, Redeemer, King, To whom the lips of children Made sweet hosannas ring. Thou art the King of Israel, Thou David’s royal Son, Who in the Lord’s name comest, The King and blessed one. 2 The company of angels Are praising Thee on high, And mortal men and all things Created make reply. The people of the Hebrews With palms before Thee went; Our praise and prayer an...

Sermon by Rev. Jake Zabel of St. John's Evangelical Lutheran Church, Dalby, Queensland, Australia on Luke 2:21

1 According to Thy gracious word, In meek humility This will I do, my dying Lord, I will remember Thee. 2 Thy body, given for my sake, Thy blood, once shed for me, These are the gifts I humbly take, And here remember Thee. 3 Gethsemane can I forget? Or there Thy conflict see, Thine agony and bloody sweat, And not remember Thee? 4 When to the cross I turn mine eyes And rest on Calvary, O Lamb of Go...

1 There is a green hill far away, Without a city wall, Where the dear Lord was crucified, Who died to save us all. 2 We may not know, we cannot tell What pains He had to bear; But we believe it was for us He hung and suffered there. 3 He died that we might be forgiven, He died to make us good; That we might go at last to heaven, Saved by His precious blood. 4 There was no other good enough To pay...

1 Beneath the cross of Jesus I fain would take my stand, The shadow of a mighty rock Within a weary land. O blessed shelter from the storm, The sinner’s sure retreat: O trysting-place, where heavenly love And heavenly justice meet. 2 There lies beyond its shadow Upon the farther side The darkness of an awful pit That opens deep and wide; But, lo, between there stands the cross Of Him who died to s...

Sermon by Rev. Jake Zabel of St. John's Evangelical Lutheran Church, Dalby, Queensland, Australia on Matthew 18:1-6

I Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do. Luke 23.34 1 Jesus, in Thy dying woes, Even while Thy life-blood flows, Craving pardon for Thy foes: Hear us, holy Jesus. 2 Saviour, for our pardon sue, When our sins Thy pangs renew, For we know not what we do: Hear us, holy Jesus. 3 O may we, who mercy need, Be like Thee in heart and deed, When with wrong our spirits bleed: Hear us, holy Je...

1 O perfect life of love! All, all, is finished now; All that He left His throne above To do for us below. 2 No work is left undone Of all the Father willed; His toil, His sorrows, one by one, The Scripture have fulfilled. 3 No pain that we can share But He has felt its smart; All forms of human grief and care Have pierced that tender heart. 4 And on His thorn-crowned head, And on His sinless soul...
