1Servants of God, awake,
To hail this sacred day,
And in glad songs of praise,
Your grateful homage pay;
Come, bless the day that God hath blest,
The type of heaven’s eternal rest.
2Upon this happy morn
The Lord of life arose;
He burst the bonds of death,
And vanquished all our foes;
And now he pleads our cause above,
And reaps the fruit of all His love.
3All hail, triumphant Lord!
Heaven with hosannas rings,
And earth in humbler strains
Thy praise responsive sings;
Worthy the Lamb, that once was slain,
Through endless years to live and reign! Amen.
1Servants of God, awake,
To hail this sacred day,
And in glad songs of praise
Your grateful homage pay;
Come bless the day that God hath blest,
The type of heaven’s eternal rest.
2Upon this happy morn
The Lord of life arose;
He burst the bands of death,
And vanquished all our foes;
And now He pleads our cause above,
And reaps the fruit of all His love.
3All hail, triumphant Lord!
Heaven with hosannas rings,
And earth in humbler strains
Thy praise responsive sings;
Worthy the Lamb, that once was slain,
Through endless years to live and reign! Amen.
