  • Easter Hymn

    Praise the Saviour now and ever;
    Praise him all beneath the skies;
    Prostrate lying, suffering, dying
    On the cross, a sacrifice.
    Victory gaining, life obtaining,
    Now in glory he doth rise.

    Man's work faileth, Christ's availeth;
    He is all our righteousness;
    He, our Saviour, has for ever
    Set us free from dire distress.
    Through his merit we inherit
    Light and peace and happiness.

    Sin's bonds severed; we're delivered;
    Christ has bruised the serpent's head;
    Death no longer is the stronger;
    Hell itself is captive led.
    Christ has risen from death's prison;
    O'er the tomb he light has shed.

    For his favor, praise for ever
    Unto God the Father sing;
    Praise the Saviour, praise him ever,
    Son of God, our Lord and King.
    Praise the Spirit; through Christ's merit,
    He doth us salvation bring.

    Beautiful Hymn!  How are you?  So much has happened since last August. Sounds like it has been a wonderful year for you... I bet you have as incredible stories to tell as Hailey does.

    Hello Matt...I just realized I'd never responded to your comment regarding debate next semester... :P

    Anyways, thank you very much for the kind offer...obviously, I have a lot of settling in to do before I actually plan anything, but I'll certainly keep it in mind. ;]

    See you in August, and have a marvelous day,
    ~Liv

    Remember this period of time last year? We were hoping we would succeed in a preposterous, beautiful dream.

    Hope all is well with you.

    Cheers, Matteo
