EN 3299 Light’s Glittering Morn Bedecks the Sky

Matt.28.7

Versi Version 1

1

Light’s glittering morn bedecks the sky;

Heav’n thunders forth its victor cry;

The glad earth shouts her triumph high,

And groaning hell makes wild reply.

2

While He, the King, the mighty King,

Despoiling death of all its sting,

And, trampling down the powers of night,

Brings forth His ransomed saints to light.

3

His tomb of late the threefold guard

Of watch and stone and seal had barred;

But now, in pomp and triumph high,

He comes from death to victory.

4

The pains of hell are loosed at last;

The days of mourning now are past;

An angel robed in light hath said,

“The Lord is risen from the dead.”

5

Th’Apostles’ hearts were full of pain

For their dear Lord so lately slain,

By rebel servants doomed to die

A death of cruel agony.

6

With gentle voice the angel gave

The women tidings at the grave;

“Fear not, your Master shall ye see;

He goes before to Galilee.”

7

Then, hastening on their eager way

The joyful tidings to convey,

Their Lord they met, their living Lord,

And falling at His feet adored.

8

Th’Eleven, when they hear, with speed

To Galilee forthwith proceed,

That there once more they may behold

The Lord’s dear face, as He foretold.
