Lyrics

See! from the morn­ing land,
Over its gold­en strand,
Love spreads her wings;
Where, from a trou­bled sleep,
Sad hearts awake to weep,
Where their lone watch they keep,
Tidings she brings.

Refrain

Hallelujah! Christ is ris’n in glo­ry!
Hallelujah! Hal­le­lu­jah! Amen!
Christ the Lord our God is ris’n in glo­ry!
Hallelujah! Amen.

Oh, how her wel­come voice
Bids them in hope re­joice,
Calms ev­ery fear;
Sweetly we hear her say,
Rolled is the stone away,
Jesus arose to­day,
Dry ev­ery tear.

Refrain

Hail, Thou An­oint­ed One,
God’s own eter­nal Son,
Glory to Thee;
Thou our ex­alt­ed Lord,
Thou the In­ca­rnate Word,
By all in Heav’n adored,
Thy name shall be.
