451. The Resurrection Morn

1 In the resurrection morning,
When the Savior comes, ’tis said,
Robed in all His white adorning,
He will raise the silent dead;
With the mighty trumpet sound,
Wake the nations from the ground,
Lost of ages shall be found,
In the resurrection morn.

Refrain:
In the resurrection morning
We shall hear the trumpet sound;
Christ will come in white adorning,
With majestic glory crowned.

2 In the resurrection morning,
Time will end forever here,
And the records we are making,
At the judgment shall appear;
All our mortal life below,
Must determine where we’ll go,
Home above, or down to woe,
In the resurrection morn. [Refrain]

3 In the resurrection morning,
All the dead of ages past,
Both the righteous and the wicked,
Each shall hear the trumpet blast;
They shall stand before the Lord,
And receive their own reward,
Judged by His eternal word,
In the resurrection morn. [Refrain]

4 Then He’ll say unto the righteous:
“Come, ye blessed, live for aye,
In the brightest realms of glory,
Where there shines one lasting day”;
Turning to the lost He’ll say:
“There in outer darkness stay,
You have trifled time away”—
Sinner, this is your reward. [Refrain]
