This Is The Day The Lord Has Made : Lyrics
1. This is the day the Lord has made;
He calls the hours His own;
Let heav’n rejoice, let earth be glad,
And praise surround the throne.
2. Today he rose and left the dead,
And Satan’s empire fell;
Today the saints His triumphs 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 Your throne.
4. Blest be the Lord, who comes to us
With messages of grace;
Who comes, in God His Father’s name,
To save our sinful race.
5. Hosanna in the highest strains
The Church on Earth can raise;
The highest leav’ns in which He reigns
Shall give him nobler praise.
