On wings of living light,
At earliest dawn of day,
Came down the angel bright;
And rolled the stone away.
Your voices raise with one accord,
|:To bless and praise
your risen Lord!:|
The keepers watching near,
At that dread sight and sound;
Fell down with sudden fear
Like dead men to the ground.
Your voices raise with one accord,
|:To bless and praise
your risen Lord!:|
Then rose from death’s dark gloom,
Unseen by mortal eye,
Triumphant o’er the tomb,
The Lord of earth and sky!
Your voices raise with one accord,
|:To bless and praise
your risen Lord!:|
Oh, let your hearts be strong!
For we, like Him, shall rise;
To dwell with Him ere long
In bliss beyond the skies!
Your voices raise with one accord,
|:To bless and praise
your risen Lord!:|
Ye children of the light,
Arise with Him, arise!
See how the Daystar bright
Is burning in the skies!
Your voices raise with one accord,
|:To bless and praise
your risen Lord!:|
Leave in the grave beneath
The old things passed away;
Buried with Him in death,
O live with Him to-day!
Your voices raise with one accord,
|:To bless and praise
your risen Lord!:|
We sing Thee, Lord Divine,
With all our hearts and powers,
For we are ever Thine,
And Thou art ever ours.
Your voices raise with one accord,
|:To bless and praise
your risen Lord!:|
