Lyrics
Verse 1
Upon the first day of the week, Our Savior came forth from the grave; He died, was buried, then arose, To reign, to triumph and to save!
Verse 2
Upon the first day of the week, Disciples met to break the bread, And drink the cup in memory Of Him whose blood for us was shed!
Verse 3
Upon the first day of the week, Let each of us lay by in store, As blessed and prospered by the Lord, the King of kings whom we adore!
Verse 4
Upon the day "beloved" John, Saw Christ, and heard His trumpet voice; We, too, in spirit worship Him, With prayer and song our hearts rejoice!
Chorus
Though others may forsake the Lord, Yet we are here Thy truth to seek; Thy holy presence comforts us, Upon the first day of the week.
