Light from the Tomb

lyricist: Irvin Mack, 1900
Composer: Lincoln Hall

Bright is the beau­te­ous light shin­ing

Past is the hour of re­pin­ing

Come

all your sor­rows re­sign­ing

For Christ is ris’n.

Light from the tomb

past is its gloom

Darkness is fled

the day is break­ing at last.

See from the grave

He comes to save

Jesus is vic­tor ov­er sin and death.

Sorrow is turned in­to sing­ing

Joy bells their glad notes are ring­ing

Hope in our hearts now is spring­ing

For Christ is ris’n.

See from the tomb light is break­ing

See all around life is wak­ing

Hope from the grave now be tak­ing

For Christ is ris’n.
