Soon shall the trump of God
Give out the welcome sound,
That shakes death’s silent chamber walls,
And breaks the turf-sealed ground.
You dwellers in the dust,
Awake, come forth, and sing;
Sharp has your frost of winter been,
But bright shall be your spring.
’Twas sown in weakness here;
’Twill then be raised in power;
That which was sown an earthly seed
Shall rise a heavenly flower.
