Light's glittering morn bedecks the sky
Author: J. M. Neale, 1818-1866 Hymnal: Common Praise #149 (2000) Meter: 8.8.4.4.8.8 with alleluias Topics: Easter IV Year B; Easter IV Year C Lyrics: PART ONE -
1 Light's glittering morn bedecks the sky;
heaven thunders forth its victor-cry:
Alleluia.
The glad earth shouts her triumph high,
and groaning hell makes wild reply:
Alleluia.
2 While he, the King, the mighty King,
despoiling death of all its sting,
and trampling down the powers of night,
brings forth his ransomed saints to light:
3 His tomb of late the threefold guard
of watch and stone and seal had barred;
but now, in pomp and triumph high,
he comes from death to victory:
4 The pains of hell are loosed at last,
the days of mourning now are past;
an angel robed in light hath said,
'The Lord is risen from the dead':
PART TWO -
5 O bitter the apostles' pain
for their dear lord so lately slain,
by rebel servants doomed to die
a death of cruel agony:
6 With gentle voice the angel gave
the women tidings at the grave:
'Fear not, your Master shall ye see;
he goes before to Galilee':
7 Then, hastening on their eager way
the joyful tidings to convey,
their Lord they met, their living Lord,
and falling at his feet adored:
8 His faithful followers with speed
to Galilee forthwith proceed,
that there once more they may behold
the Lord's dear face, as he foretold:
PART THREE -
9 That Eastertide with joy was bright,
the sun shone out with fairer light,
when, to their longing eyes restored,
the glad apostles saw their Lord:
2 He bade them see his hands, his side,
where yet the glorious wounds abide;
the tokens true which made it plain
their Lord indeed was risen again:
3 Jesu, the King of gentleness,
do thou thyself our hearts possess,
that we may give thee all our days
the tribute of our grateful praise:
DOXOLOGY -
[To be sung at the end of any part or of the whole hymn]
12 O Lord of all, with us abide
in this our joyful Eastertide;
from every weapon death can wield
thine own redeemed for ever shield:

from death to endless life restore;
Alleluia.
all praise to God the Father be
and Holy Ghost eternally:

And none you have chosen will finally fall.

The hireling, the wolf who destroys and deceives.
All praise for your promise on which we shall stand,
That no one can snatch us from out of your hand.
3 Good Shepherd, you lay down your life for the sheep.
Your love is not fickle, your gift is not cheap.
You spend your life freely, you take it again.
You died, so we live; we are healed by your pain.
4 At one with the Father, you made yourself known:
"I am the Good Shepherd," at one with your own.
You loved us before we had heeded or heard;
By grace we respond to your life-giving word. Languages: English Tune Title: ST. DENIO

the long-imprisoned dead.

alone our Leader bore;
his ransomed hosts pursue their way
where he hath gone before.
4 Triumphant in his glory now
his sceptre ruleth all,
earth, heaven, and hell before him bow,
and at his footstool fall.
5 While joyful thus his praise we sing,
his mercy we implore,
into his palace bright to bring
and keep us evermore.

all glory to the Son,
all glory, Holy Ghost, to thee,
while endless ages run.
