1. Again the Lord of life and light | |||
Awakes the kindling ray; | |||
Unseals the eyelids of the morn, | |||
And pours increasing day. | |||
2. O what a night was that, which wrapped | |||
The heathen world in gloom! | |||
O what a sun which broke this day, | |||
Triumphant from the tomb! | |||
3. This day be grateful homage paid, | |||
And loud hosannas sung; | |||
Let gladness dwell in every heart, | |||
And praise on every tongue.}} | |||

4. Ten thousand differing lips shall join | |||
To hail this welcome morn; | |||
Which scatters blessings from its wings, | |||
To nations yet unborn. | |||
5. Jesus, the friend of human kind, | |||
With strong compassion moved, | |||
Descended like a pitying God, | |||
To save the souls he loved. | |||
6. The powers of darkness leagued in vain | |||
{{ | To bind his soul in death; | ||
He shook their kingdom when he fell, | |||
With his expiring breath.}} | |||

7. Not long the toils of hell could keep | |||
The hope of Judah's line; | |||
Corruption never could take hold | |||
On aught so much divine. | |||
8. And now his conquering chariot wheels | |||
Ascend the lofty skies; | |||
While broke, beneath his powerful cross, | |||
Death's iron scepter lies. | |||
9. Exalted high at God's right hand, | |||
And Lord of all below, | |||
Through him is pardoning love dispensed, | |||
And boundless blessings flow.}} | |||

{{Text|Simple| | |||
10. And still for erring, guilty man, | |||
A brother's pity flows; | |||
And still his bleeding heart is touched | |||
With memory of our woes. | |||
11. To thee, my Savior, and my king, | |||
Glad homage let me give; | |||
And stand prepared like thee to die, | |||
With thee that I may live.}} | |||
