LyicsANGELS, roll the rock away;
Death, yield up thy mighty prey:
See he rises from the tomb--
Rises with immortal bloom.
'Tis the Saviour; seraphs, raise
Your triumphant shouts of praise:
Let the earth's remotest bound
Hear the joy-inspiring sound.
Lift, ye saints, lift up your eyes;
Now to glory see him rise;
Hosts of angels on the road
Hail and sing th' incarnate God.
Praise him, all ye heavenly choirs,
Praise him with your golden lyres;
Praise him in your noblest songs;
Praise him from ten thousand tongues.
