Verse 1
Again the Lord of life and light,
Awakes the kindling ray,
Dispels the darkness of the night,
And pours increasing day.
Awakes the kindling ray,
Dispels the darkness of the night,
And pours increasing day.
Verse 2
O what a night was that which wrapt
A guilty world in gloom!
O what a sun which rose this day
Triumphant from the tomb!
A guilty world in gloom!
O what a sun which rose this day
Triumphant from the tomb!
Verse 3
This day be grateful homage paid,
And loud hosannas sung;
Let gladness dwell in ev'ry heart,
And praise on ev'ry tongue.
And loud hosannas sung;
Let gladness dwell in ev'ry heart,
And praise on ev'ry tongue.
Verse 4
Ten thousand thousand lips shall join
To hail this happy morn,
Which scatters blessings from its wings
On nations yet unborn.
To hail this happy morn,
Which scatters blessings from its wings
On nations yet unborn.
