Though we rose to this tearful sunrise
With sadness for the dawn,
Now we find the grave-stone rolled aside,
Declaring Christ has gone.
Here we stand, trembling as an angel speaks,
We can't believe our eyes.
What a marvel, oh, what a mystery:
It's heaven's great surprise.
Hear the tomb as it echoes its refrain,
Which shouts of Jesus' pow'r;
Hear it ring with a triumph that proclaims
Salvation's finest hour.
Glory to the Great Redeemer,
Glory to the Risen Christ!
Our God reigns forever;
He is the Lord of life!
So all saints, let your loudest anthems ring;
We stand with hearts amazed.
Let us join as the heav'nly angels sing,
"He's worthy of all praise!"
Glory to the Great Redeemer,
Glory to the Risen Christ!
Our God reigns forever,
He is the Lord of life!
Hallelujah for this, our victory,
The end of sin's dark night.
As He lives once again then so shall we;
He is the Lord of life!
He is the Lord of life!
