1 Angels, roll the rock away,
Den of Death, resign thy prey.
See, the Saviour quits the tomb,
glowing with immortal bloom,
Glowing with immortal bloom.

2 Shout, ye seraphs; Gabriel, raise
Fame's eternal trump of praise,
Let the earth's remotest bound
Echo to the blissful sound.

3 Saints of God, lift up your eyes,
See the conq'rer scale the skies.
Troops of angels on the road,
Hail and sing th'incarnate God.

4 Heav'n unfolds its portals wide,
Matchless hero, thro' them ride.
Heav'n unfolds its portals wide,
Matchless hero, thro' them ride.

5 King of glory, mount thy throne,
Boundless empire is thine own.
King of glory mount thy throne,
Boundless empire is thine own.
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah,
Hallelujah, Hallelujah,
Amen. Amen. Amen.
