O short was His slumber;
He woke from the dust,
The Savior death’s chain
could not hold;
And short, since He rose,
is the sleep of the just;
They shall wake,
and His glory behold.
Dear grave in the garden;
hope smiled at its door
Where love’s
brightest triumph was told;
Christ lives! and His life
will His people restore;
They shall wake,
and His glory behold.
