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.

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.

Alleluia, alleluia, alleluia, alleluia!
