Of triumphant gladness;
God has brought his Israel
Into joy from sadness;
Loosed from Pharaoh's bitter yoke
Jacob's sons and daughters;
Led them with unmoistened foot
Through the Red Sea waters.
2 'Tis the spring of souls today;
Christ has burst the prison,
And from three days' sleep in death
As a sun has risen;
All the winter of our sins,
Long and dark is flying
From his light, to whom we give
Laud and praise undying.
3 Now the queen of seasons, bright
With the day of splendor,
With the royal feast of feasts,
Comes its joy to render;
Comes to gladen faithful hearts
Who with true affection
Welcomes in unwearied strains
Jesus' resurrection.
4 Neither could the gates of death,
Nor the tomb's dark portal,
Nor the watchers, nor the seal
Hold him as a mortal;
For today among the Twelve
Christ appeared bestowing
Lasting peace which evermore
Passes human knowing.
5 "Alleuia!" now we cry
To our King immortal,
Who, triumphant, burst the bars
Of the tomb's dark portal;
"Alleluia!" with the Son,
God the Father praising;
"Alleluia!" yet again
To the Spirit raising.

Is crowned with glory now;
A royal diadem adorns
The mighty victor’s brow.

Belongs to hHim by right;
The King of kings and Lord of lords,
And heaven’s eternal light.
3 The joy of all who dwell above,
The joy of all below,
To whom he manifests hHis love,
And grants his name to know.
4 To them the cross with all its shame,
With all its grace, is giv'en;
Their name an everlasting name,
Their joy the joy of heav'n.
5 They suffer with their Lord below;
They reign with him above;
Their profit and their joy to know
The myst'ry of his love.
6 The cross he bore is life and health,
Though shame and death to him,
His people’s hope, his people’s wealth,
Their everlasting theme. Scripture: 2 Timothy 2:12 Languages: English Tune Title: ST. MAGNUS
