Resurrection · Hymn 331 · 6.6.6.8.8

On wings of living light

“ He is not here but he is risen”. Luk 24:6

1.

On wings of living light

At earliest dawn of day

Came down the angel bright

And rolled the stone away

Refrain

Your voices raise with one accord

To bless and praise your risen Lord

2.

The keepers watching near

At that dread sight and sound

Fell down with sudden fear

Like dead men, to the ground

3.

Then rose from death’s dark gloom

Unseen by mortal eye

Triumphant o’er the tomb

The Lord of earth and sky

4.

Ye children of the light

Arise with Him, arise;

See how the day star bright

Is burning in the skies

5.

Leave in the grave beneath

The old things passed away

Buried with Him in death

O live with Him today

6.

We sing Thee; Lord divine

With all our hearts and powers

For we are ever Thine

And Thou art ever ours.

Amen
