4. Around the bloody tree,
Ye pressed with strong desire;
The wondrous sight to see,
The Lord of life expire.
And could your eyes
Have known a tear,
Had dropped it there
In sad surprise.

5. Around the sacred tomb
A willing watch ye keep;
Till the blest moment come
To rouse Him from His sleep;
Then rolled the stone,
And all adored
Your rising Lord
With joy unknown.

6. When all arrayed in light,
The shining Conqueror rode,
Ye hailed His rapturous flight
Up to the throne of God;
And waved around
Your golden wings,
And struck your strings
Of sweetest sound.

7. The warbling notes pursue,
And louder anthems raise;
While mortals sing with you
Their own Redeemer's praise:
And thou, my heart,
With equal flame,
And joy the same,
Perform thy part.
