Beautiful, won­der­ful morn­ing!
Gleaming with pro­mise so fair,
Sunlight the hill­tops adorn­ing,
Gladness and light ev­ery­where.
Sweetly the joy-bells are ring­ing,
Out thro’ the frag­rance and bloom;
Nature a cho­ral is sing­ing,
Glory en­cir­cles the tomb.

Refrain

Beautiful, won­der­ful morn­ing,
Joyful His prais­es we sing;
Beautiful, won­der­ful morn­ing of love,
Jesus doth live, Je­sus our king.

Voices from Hea­ven seem cal­ing,
Down from the skies bend­ing low;
Fear not, tho’ shadows are fall­ing,
Everything Je­sus doth know.
Love like a foun­tain is flow­ing
Forth from the heart kind and true;
Cling to the hand strong and migh­ty,
Christ has aris­en for you.

Refrain

Beautiful, won­der­ful dawn­ing,
Joy of the ag­es to be,
Visions of life’s bless­èd morn­ing,
Thro’ the grave’s por­tals we see.
Sweeter will grow the glad sto­ry
While the long ag­es pass by,
Bringing to earth a new glo­ry,
Reigneth our king up on high.
