Full Lyrics

As it began to dawn toward the first day of the week, came Mary Magdalene and the other Mary to see the sepulchre. And, behold, there was a great earthquake: for the angel of the Lord descended from heaven, and came and rolled back the stone from the door, and sat upon it. His countenance was like lightning, and his raiment white as snow: And for fear of him the keepers did shake, and became as dead men. And the angel answered and said unto the women, Fear not ye: for I know that ye seek Jesus, which was crucified. He is not here: He is risen. Alleluia! Alleluia! Hearts and voices heavenward raise: Sing to God a hymn of gladness, Sing to God a hymn of praise: He, who on the cross a victim, For the world's salvation bled, Jesus Christ, the King of glory, Now is risen from the dead. Alleluia. Amen.
