Title: On this day, the first of days

Hymn Lyrics www.traditionalmusic.co.uk - Christian Hymn Lyrics.  

On this day, the first of days 
On this day, the first of days, God's the Father's Name we praise, who, creation's Lord and Spring, did the world from darkness bring. 
On this day the eternal Son over death triumph won; on this day the Spirit came with his gifts of living flame. 
O that fervent love today may in every heart have sway, teaching us to praise aright God the Source of life and light. 
Father, who didst fashion me image of thyself to be, fill me with thy love divine, let my every thought be thine. 
Holy Jesus, may I be dead and buried here with thee; and, by love inflamed, arise unto thee a sacrifice. 
Thou who dost all gifts impart, shine, blest Spirit, in my heart; best of gifts, thyself bestow; make me burn thy love to know. 
God, the blessèd Three in One, dwell within my heart alone; thou dost give thyself to me, may I give myself to thee.
