HYMN 15.

Christ from the dead is raised, and made
The first fruits of the tomb;
For as by man came death, by man
Did resurrection come.

For as in Adam all mankind
Did guilt and death derive,
So by the righteousness of Christ
Shall all be made alive.

If then ye risen are with Christ,
Seek only how to get
The things that are above, where Christ,
At God's right hand doth sit.

To Father, Son, and Holy Ghost,
The God whom we adore,
Be glory; as it was, is now,
And shall be evermore.
