103 Fairer than the fairest
328 Memorable morning, first day of the week
====================================
FAIRER than the fairest ’Mong the sons of men, Moral glories proved Him Great beyond our ken, In His perfect pathway As on earth He trod, Giving perfect pleasure Unto Thee, His God.
Majesty surpassing Everything below Crowned Him with a glory More than men could know; Yet a lowly meekness, Deep, and sweet, and true, Marked Him in His movements All His pathway through.
Comeliness excelling In our Lord we see, Purest heavenly fragrance Flowing full and free. He our occupation, We His praises sing, And to Thee, His Father, Raise our offering.
William Irwin
MEMORABLE morning, First day of the week! Loved ones to the garden Came their Lord to seek, Ready to anoint Him, Thinking all was o’er, Heavy in their mourning, Full of sorrow sore.
But the tomb was empty, Th’ stone was rolled away; And as they beheld it In perplexity, Two in shining garments Stood where He was laid, Said to them affrighted, “Be ye not afraid”.
“Why the Living seek ye Thus among the dead? He indeed is risen Even as He said.” Then they ran rejoicing, Wondrous news to tell - That the Lord was living, And that all was well.
Glorious resurrection! Past are all His woes. Hail the mighty Victor Who in triumph rose. From our hearts responsive Joyful songs of praise Unto Thee, His Father, Rev’rently we raise.
