8592. Hail, Thou Glorious Easter Morning

1 Hail, thou glorious Easter morning,
Day of joy beyond compare;
Angels hailed thy glorious dawning,
Found the stone no longer there.

Refrain:
Shout aloud, O earth and Heaven,
Angels join the glad refrain,
Christ for man Himself has given,
Christ has died, but lives again.

2 Found the grave no longer bound Him,
Found death’s victory was o’er;
Christ, new glory shining round Him,
Reigns in Heav’n forevermore. [Refrain]

3 All ye nations now adore Him,
Cast your offering at His feet,
Bring sweet flowers today before Him,
And glad hymns of joy repeat. [Refrain]
