On this illustrious joyful morn,
Our Saviour left the grave;
Was then declared the Son of God,
With mighty power to save.
Come humble souls, and see the place
Where once the Saviour lay;
New string your harps, attune your songs,
And hail the solemn day.
In lofty accents praise his name,
Who thus in triumph rose;
Who broke the iron bands of death,
And trampled on his foes.
Sing loud hosannas to your King,
The Lamb that once was slain;
For you the royal victim died,
For you he rose again.
