Tune: | FIRTH |
Composer: | R. A. Firth |
1 Angels, roll the rock away!
Death yield up the might Prey!
See, the Saviour quits the tomb,
Glowing with immortal bloom.
Alleluia! alleluia!
Christ the Lord is risen to-day.
2 Shout ye seraphs; angels raise
Your eternal song of praise;
Let the earth's remotest bound
Echo to the blissful sound.
Alleluia! alleluia!
Christ the Lord is risen to-day.
3 Holy Father, Holy Son,
Holy Spirit, Three in One,
Glory as of old to Thee,
Now and evermore, shall be.
Alleluia! alleluia!
Christ the Lord is risen to-day.
Amen.
