Again the Lord's own day is here by James William Elliott — Lyrics
Again the Lord’s own day is here,
the day to Christian people dear,
as, week by week, it bids them tell
how Jesus rose from death and hell.
For by his flock their Lord declared
his resurrection should be shared;
and we who trust in him to save
with him are risen from the grave.
We, one and all, of him possessed,
are with exceeding treasures blessed;
