When the Sav­ior’s glo­ry fills the earth and skies,
When the spir­it sinks away!
Snowdrops! lift your ti­mid heads,
start
On Thee each morn­ing, O my God,
Come with re­joic­ing, come with de­light,
Slumber from my eye­lids shak­ing,
Slumber from my eye­lids shak­ing,
Tints the sky with gold­en rays,
And sweet and fair the leaves un­fold,
start
A bright­er dawn is break­ing,
On the dark­some world again.
Shall call, and break up ev­ery tomb,
Lo, the seal­èd tomb is break­ing.
Lo, the seal­èd tomb is break­ing.
My all to Thy co­ve­nant care,
Close thy heart no more;
See from the tomb light is break­ing,
A glo­ri­ous day is dawn­ing,

wak­ing

In the morn­ing, in the morn­ing,
In a world of end­less day.
Field and for­est, brown and dead,
And bright­ly glows the sky;
In whom are found­ed all my hopes,
Hearts ov­er­flow­ing ga­ther to­day,
I am in His keep­ing.
I am in His keep­ing.
Sing their heav’n­ly Fa­ther’s praise.
For flower and fruit­age now are seen,
Proclaim the joy­ous spring;
For Thou, O King, most high­est,
Bless the day the Sav­ior rose;
O may I then with joy ap­pear
Yea, He com­eth forth in might!
Yea, He com­eth forth in might!
If Thou art my shield and my sun,
Open wide the door.
Hope from the grave now be tak­ing,
The her­alds of the morn­ing
