HYMNS.
HYMN III.
For Easter-Sunday.
AGAIN the Lord of life and light
Awakes the kindling ray;
Unſeals the eyelids of the morn,
And pours increaſing day.
O what a night was that, which wrap'd
The heathen world in gloom!
O what a ſun which broke this day,
Triumphant from the tomb!
This day be grateful homage paid,
And loud hoſannas ſung;
Let gladneſs dwell in every heart,
And praiſe on every tongue.
Ten
