C.1 This is the Day

This is the day which the Lord has made,
Let us be glad and rejoice:
He is the maker of heaven and earth,
Praise him with heart and with voice.

Chorus:
Alleluia, alleluia, alleluia, alleluia!

This is the day which the Lord has made,
Sing of his bounty and love;
Thank him this day for his wonderful gifts,
Poured out on us from above.

This is the day which the Lord has made,
Cry out in praise of his name;
We have assembled to ponder his word,
May we his message proclaim.

This is the day which the Lord has made,
Rising, he conquered all strife;
having attended his banquet of love,
Rise in his newness of life.
