This month's Free
Tablature is
(traditional Easter Hymn)
|
 |
 |
Just in time for the Easter celebration, this month's free tab is an arrangement of the traditional Easter hymn "Come Ye Faithful, Raise the Strain". The lyrics for this hymn were written in the 8th Century by a Greek theologian known as John of Damascus. John M. Neale translated the words into English in 1859. It was paired with a number of common hymn tunes until 1872, when Arthur S. Sullivan came up with the tune we most commonly associate with it today. Sullivan composed and/or arranged the music for many well known hymns, including "Onward Christian Soldiers", "It Came Upon A Midnight Clear", "Rock of Ages", and "Crown Him with Many Crowns". (In later years, he teamed up with lyricist William Gilbert to create a series of 14 comic operas which have enjoyed broad and enduring international success. Their collaborations produced such works as "H.M.S. Pinafore", "Pirates of Penzance", and "The Mikado").
Here are the complete set of verses for "Come Ye Faithful":
God hath brought forth Israel into joy from sadness;
Loosed from Pharaoh’s bitter yoke Jacob’s sons and daughters,
Led them with unmoistened foot through the Red Sea waters.
’Tis the spring
of souls today; Christ has burst His prison,
And from three days’ sleep in death as a sun hath risen;
All the winter of our sins, long and dark, is flying
From His light, to Whom we give laud and praise undying.
Now the queen of seasons, bright with the day of splendor,
With the royal feast of feasts, comes its joy to render;
Comes to glad Jerusalem, who with true affection
Welcomes in unwearied strains Jesus’ resurrection.
Neither might the gates of death, nor the tomb’s dark portal,
Nor the watchers, nor the seal hold Thee as a mortal;
But today amidst the twelve Thou didst stand, bestowing
That Thy peace which evermore passeth human knowing.
“Alleluia!” now we cry to our King immortal,
Who, triumphant, burst the bars of the tomb’s dark portal;
“Alleluia!” with the Son, God the Father praising,
“Alleluia!” yet again to the Spirit raising.
Enjoy, and have a Blessed Easter!
