Hail the Day that Sees Him Rise
Read: Luke 24:1-12
Hail the day that sees Him rise
To His throne above the skies.
Christ, awhile to mortals given
Reascends His native Heaven.
There the glorious triumph waits.
Lift your heads, eternal gates.
Christ hath conquered death and sin.
Take the King of glory in.
See! the Heaven its Lord receives,
Yet He loves the Earth He leaves.
Though returning to His throne,
Still He calls the world His own.
See! He lifts His hands above.
See! He shows the prints of love.
Hark! His gracious lips bestow
Blessings on His church below.
Charles Wesley
Come here each day in Lent to share in the devotional writings of members of Grosse Pointe United Methodist Church in Grosse Pointe Farms, Michigan. We pray God will bless you as we journey through Lent toward the celebration of the Glorious Resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ on Easter (and every) Sunday.
