LyicsLo, the stone is rolled away;
Death yields up his mighty prey,
Jesus rising from the tomb,
Scatters all its fearful gloom,
Praise him, ye celestial choirs,
Praise, and sweep your golden lyres!
Praise him in the noblest songs,
From ten thousand thousand tongues.
Every note with rapture swell,
And the Saviour's triumph tell:
Where, O death! is now thy sting!
Where thy terrors, vanquished king?
Let Immanuel be adored,
Ransom, Mediator, Lord!
To creations utmost bound,
Let the eternal praise resound.
Glory be to God on high,
God whose glory fills the sky:
Peace on earth and man forgiven:
Glory in the highest heaven.
