EN 4915 Upon the Sixth Day of the Week
1Cor.15.45
Versi Version 1
1
Upon the sixth day of the week
The first man had his birth,
In God’s own image bright and pure
Created from the earth.
2
Upon the sixth day of the week
The second Adam died,
And by the second Adam’s death
Man was revivified.
3
Upon the seventh day of the week
God from His works did rest,
And on that holy Sabbath day
The works of God were blessed.
4
Upon the seventh day of the week
Christ in the grave did rest,
The grave is now a holy place;
A Sabbath for the blest.
5
By tasting the forbidden tree
Man fell in Paradise;
Upon the tree Christ tasted death,
And by His death we rise.
6
Christ in a garden buried lay,
Which spring-flowers did adorn;
And there our Resurrection bloomed
On the bright Easter morn.
7
The grave itself a garden is,
Where loveliest flowers abound,
For Christ our amaranthine Life
Sprang from the holy ground.
8
He by the Spirit once was born
Pure from the virgin’s womb,
And by the Spirit once again,
Born from the virgin tomb.
9
Oh give us grace to die to sin,
That we, O Lord, may have
A holy, happy rest with Thee,
A Sabbath in the grave.
10
O may we buried be with Thee,
And with Thee, Lord, arise
To an eternal Easter-day
Of glory in the skies!
