Angels, roll the rock away
7s.
1
Angels, roll the rock away!Death, yield up the mighty prey!See, the Savior quits the tomb,Glowing with immortal bloom.
2
Shout, ye seraphs; Gabriel raiseFame's eternal trump of praise;Let the earth's remotest boundEcho to the blissful sound.
3
Now, ye saints, lift up your eyes;See the Conqueror mount the skies;Troops of angels on the road,Hail and sing the incarnate God.
4
Heaven unfolds her portals wide,Glorious Hero, through them ride,King of glory, mount thy throne,Boundless empire is thy own.
5
Praise him, ye celestial choirs,Raise and sweep your golden lyres;Praise him in the noblest songs,From ten thousand, thousand tongues.
