Sealed Was The Tomb
Author: Flora Kirkland Appears in 3 hymnals First Line: Sealed was the tomb, guarded by soldiers Refrain First Line: O wonderful light in the garden Lyrics: 1 Sealed was the tomb, guarded by soldiers,
Brightly the moonlight shone around;
Roadway and hill gleamed in the brightness,
Flooded with light the garden’s bound.
Brighter the light seen ’neath the olives;
Forms bright as sunlight, ’mid the trees,
Soldiers were there, clad as for warfare;
Lo! they are gone, and who are these?
See yonder, hast’ning to the city,
The trembling soldiers in terror go!
Earthquake astounding, strange light surrounding,
Drive them away these things to show.
Refrain:
O wonderful light in the garden,
That fadeth not away!
The King who was laid in the shadow
With vict’ry is crowned this glorious day.
2 Darkly they plan; falsely as darkly,
Stories that He was borne away—
Borne by His friends, poor weak disciples,
Stol’n when the moon was bright as day!
Soldiers of Rome ne’er slept on duty,
False was the tale for silver told;
Death could not hold that mighty Victor!
Lift up your heads, ye gates of gold!
The morn of glory hath awakened,
And death no longer holds boundless pow’r;
Empty the prison, Jesus has risen;
Time hath no richer, grander hour. [Refrain] Used With Tune: [Sealed was the tomb, guarded by soldiers]

Be Not Afraid
Author: Anna Richarde Hymnal: The Kingdom of Praise #82 (1920) First Line: Be not afraid, trust in thy Saviour Refrain First Line: O, be not afraid, He is with thee Lyrics: 1 Be not afraid, trust in the Saviour,
He will thy watchful Shepherd be,
Looking to Him moment by moment,
Safe in His care, all fears shall flee.
Be not afraid, be of good courage,
God is thy Strength—thy constant Friend;
Father and King, mighty Deliv’rer,
Trust in His love, on Him depend.
There never falls a night so dreary
But Jesus offers His loving care,
Be of good courage!
Be of good courage!
All of thy burdens He will share.
Refrain:
O, be not afraid, He is with thee,
Go bravely on thy way,
He giveth His strength to the weary,
O, be not afraid but watch and pray.
2 Be not afraid, Jesus is with thee,
Naught can against His might prevail;
Lift up thy voice, praise Him with singing,
Praise Him whose pow’r doth e’er avail.
O, praise His name, He hath redeemed Thee!
He will thy Guard and Shelter be,
All of thy need freely supplying,
He, all thy future, now doth see.
On Him with perfect trust relying,
Go bravely forward without a fear,
He will sustain thee,
Naught need enchain thee,
Pray, trust, believe and be of cheer. [Refrain] Tune Title: [Be not afraid, trust in thy Saviour]

Charles F. Gounod
1818 - 1893 Person Name: Gounod Composer of "[Sealed was the tomb, guarded by soldiers]" in The Cyber Hymnal Charles F. Gounod (b. Paris, France, 1818; d. St. Cloud, France, 1893) was taught initially by his pianist mother. Later he studied at the Paris Conservatory, won the "Grand Prix de Rome" in 1839, and continued his musical training in Vienna, Berlin, and Leipzig. Though probably most famous for his opera Faust (1859) and other instrumental music (including his Meditation sur le Prelude de Bach, to which someone added the Ave Maria text for soprano solo), Gounod also composed church music-four Masses, three Requiems, and a Magnificat. His smaller works for church use were published as Chants Sacres. When he lived in England (1870-1875), Gounod became familiar with British cathedral music and served as conductor of what later became the Royal Choral Society.
