Jesus, Jesus, You make the darkness tremble
On their sea­ward way;
With me in this heav’nly place?
In the weakness of our faith
Our God shall come,
Art thou buried? God’s pure seed
In all His glo­ri­ous march ap­pear:
Seek a shel­ter from the night.
The lips, whence sped life to the dead,
And Thine the endless praise.
Your buried body began to breathe
Fling out the ban­ner! an­gels bend
Willing, should He not require me,
He spared not His Son!
Grant Thy gra­cious in­flu­ence, Lord;
Enter at ev­ery door:
Hush, with­in us, all com­mo­tion,
Nor sings the bliss of climes ab­ove.
Midnight’s sa­ble hour is pass­ing,
Then I shall sing to Thee;

Silence

Jesus, Jesus, You make the darkness tremble
Gloom is swept away;
And dost whisper to my heart
You are here
He shall call
Change thy sighing into song,
Ye Gen­tiles, He is God alone;
Silent Beth­l’em’s fount­ains,
Let the crowd ab­out the cross
Together worship Thee;
Declared the grave has no claim on me
And vain­ly seek to com­pre­hend
Oh, to be nothing, nothing!
’Tis this that bids the hard thought disappear;
Let the Church no more be rent;
Speed on the wings of love;
May we, Lord, with true de­vo­tion
In those for­get­ful realms ap­pear:
Nature rests in soft­est slum­bers,
Then silent I will be.
