Lyics

Again the Lord of life and light
Awakes the kindling ray,
Unseals the eyelids of the morn,
And pours increasing day.


O what a night was that which wrapt
The heathen world in gloom!
O what a sun which rose this day
Triumphant from the tomb!


This day be grateful homage paid,
And loud hosannas sung;
Let gladness dwell in ev'ry heart, 
And praise on ev'ry tongue.


Ten thousand different lips shall join 
To hail this welcome morn,
Which scatters blessings from its wings
To nations yet unborn.
