Lyics

MORNING breaks upon the tomb;

Jesus scatters all its gloom;

Day of triumph! through the skies

See the glorious Saviour rise.



Ye who are of death afraid,

Triumph in the scatter'd shade;

Drive your anxious cares away;

See the place where Jesus lay.



Christian, dry your flowing tears;

Chase your unbelieving fears;

Look on his deserted grave;

Doubt no more his power to save.
