Morning Breaks upon the Tomb

William B. Collyer, 1812

Morning breaks upon the tomb; Jesus scatters all its gloom. Day of triumph through the skies; See the glorious Savior rise. 2. Christians, dry your flowing tears Chase your unbelieving fears; Look on His deserted grave, Doubt no more His power to save.

3. Ye who are of death afraid Triumph in the scattered shade. Drive your anxious cares away; See the place where Jesus lay. 4. So the rising sun appears, Shedding radiance o'er the spheres; So returning beams of light Chase the terrors of the night.
