HYMN 102. (7’s.)
1 On the morn of the third day,
See! the rock is rolled away;
Seals are broke and guards are fled,
Jesus rises from the dead.
2 ‘Tis the Savior: see him come!
See him triumph o’er the tomb!
Yes; through shedding of his blood,
Flesh and bones can dwell with God.
3 He, our elder brother is,
And our bodies must, like his,
Rise triumphant from the tomb,
Glowing with immortal bloom.
4 Praise him, then, ye Saints above;
Praise him, all who know his love;
Praise unto the Lord belongs;
Praise him in ten thousand songs. (Joel J. Johnson, Hymns
of Praise for the Young: Selected from the Songs of Joel [Salt Lake
City: Deseret News Company, 1882], 107-8)
