Hymn A & M 602- . Light's glittering morn bedecks the sky




1. Light's glittering morn bedecks 

the sky;

heaven thunders forth its victor 

cry; Alleluia!

the glad earth shouts her triumph 

high,

and groaning hell makes wild reply.

Alleluia!


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."


PART 2

5. O bitter the apostles'  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. His faithful followers with speed

to Galilee forthwith proceed,

that there once more they may behold

the Lord's dear face, as he foretold.


PART 3

9. That Eastertide with joy was bright,

the sun shone out with fairer light,

when, to their longing eyes restored,

the glad apostles saw their Lord.


10. He bade them see his hands, his side,

where yet the glorious wounds abide;

the tokens true which made it plain

their Lord indeed was risen again.


11. Jesus, the King of gentleness,

do thou thyself our hearts possess

that we may give thee all our days

the tribute of our grateful praise.


The following may be sung 

at the end of each part:


12. O Lord of all, with us abide

in this our joyful Eastertide;

from every weapon death can wield

thine own redeemed forever shield.


13. All praise be thine, O risen Lord,

From death to endless life restored:

All praise to God the Father be

And Holy Ghost eternally.
