I CHRIST our passover is sacri- ficed for us, || Therefore let us keep the feast. 2 Not with the old leaven, neither with leaven of malice and wickedness, || But with the unleavened bread of sin- ceri - ty and — truth. 3 Christ, being raised from the dead, dieth no more; || Death hath no more dominion over Him. 4 For in that He died, He died unto sin once: || But in that He liveth, He liveth | unto God. 5 Likewise reckon ye also yourselves to be dead indeed unto sin, || But alive unto God through Jesus Christ our Lord. 6 Now is Christ risen | from the dead, || And become the first- | fruits of them that slept. 7 For since by man came death, || By man came also the resur-|rection of the dead. 8 For as in Adam all-die, || Even so in Christ shall all be made a- live.

Sir John Bowring (1792-1872), 1825. Ab. holy! Lord God of Sa-ba- oth! Heav'n and earth are full, full of Thy I My soul is not at rest. There comes a strange and secret whisper to my spirit, || Like a dream of night, || That tells me I am on en- - chanted ground. 2 Why live I here? the vows of God are on me, || And I may not stop to play with shadows, or pluck earthly flowers, || Till I my work have done, and rendered · up ac- count. 3 And I will go! || I may no longer doubt to give up friends and idol hopes, || And every tie that binds my heart to thee, my country! 4 Henceforth, then, it matters not if storm or sunshine be my earthy lot, || Bitter or sweet my cup, || I only pray, "God, make me holy, and my spirit nerve for the stern hour of strife!" 5 And when I come to stretch me for the last, || In unattended agony, beneath the cocoa's shade, || It will be sweet that I have toiled for other worlds than this. 6 And if one for whom Satan hath struggled as he hath for me, || Should ever reach that blessed shore- || O how this heart will glow with gratitude and love. |
