The Sun of righteousness appears,
To set in blood no more:
Adore the Scatterer of your fears,
Your rising Sun adore.
The saints, when he resigned his breath,
Unclosed their sleeping eyes:
He breaks again the bands of death,
Again the dead arise.
Alone the dreadful race he ran.
Alone the wine-press trod:
He dies and suffers as a man,
He rises as a God.
In vain the stone, the watch, the seal,
Forbid an early rise
To him who breaks the gates of hell.
And opens paradise.
