| Text: | Morning breaks upon the tomb |
| Author: | William B. Collyer |
| Tune: | VIENNA |
1 Morning breaks upon the tomb,
Jesus scatters all its gloom;
Day of triumph through the skies,
See the glorious Saviour rise.
2 Ye who are of death afraid,
Triumph in the scattered shade;
Drive your anxious cares away;
See the place where Jesus lay.
3 Christian, dry your flowing tears;
Chase your unbelieving fears;
Look on his deserted grave;
Doubt no more his power to save.
