At the Lamb's High Feast We Sing Lyrics

At the Lamb's high feast we sing

Praise to our victorious king

Who has washed us in the tide

Flowing from his wounded side

Alleluia

Praise we Christ, whose love divine

Gives his sacred blood for wine

Gives his Body for the feast

Christ the victim, Christ the priest

Alleluia

Where the paschal blood is poured

Death's dread angel sheathes the sword

Israel's hosts triumphant go

Through the wave that drowns the foe

Alleluia

Praise we Christ, whose blood was shed

Paschal victim, paschal bread

With sincerity and love

Eat we manna from above

Alleluia

Mighty victim from the sky

Hell's fierce pow'rs beneath you lie

You have conquered in the fight

You have brought us life and light

Alleluia

Now no more can death appall

Now no more the grave enthrall

You have opened paradise

And your saints in you shall rise

Alleluia

Easter triumph, Easter joy

This alone can sin destroy

From sin's pow'r, Lord, set us free

Newborn souls in you to be

Alleluia

Father, who the crown shall give

Savior, by whose death we live

Spirit, guide through all our days

Three in One, your name we praise

Alleluia
