Recessional Hymn
Verse 1
How lovely on
the mountains are the feet of him
who brings good news, good news,
announcing peace,
proclaiming news of happiness
Our God reigns, our God reigns,Our God reigns, our God reigns
Our God reigns, our God reigns.Verse 2
He had no stately form,
he had no majesty,
that we should be drawn to him.
He was despised
and we took no account of him,
yet now he reigns, with the Most High.Now he reigns, now he reigns,
now he reigns, with the Most High.Verse 3
It was our sin
and guilt that bruised and wounded him
It was our sin that brought him down.
When we like sheep
had gone astray our shepherd came
and on his shoulders bore our shame.On his shoulders, on his shoulders
on his shoulders, he bore our shame.Verse 4
Meek as a lamb
that's led out to the slaughter house
dumb as a sheep before its shearer,
his life ran down
upon the ground like pouring rain,
that we might be born again.That we might be, that we might be,
that we might be, born again.Verse 5
Out from the tomb
he came with grace and majesty;
he is alive, he is alive.
God loves us so,
see here his hands, his feet, his side.
Yes, we know, he is alive.He is alive, he is alive,
he is alive, he is alive.
