The poetical works of William Lisle Bowles | ||
EASTER DAY.
1
Who comes (my soul no longer doubt),Rising from earth's wormy sod,
And whilst ten thousand angels sing,
Ascends—ascends to heaven, a God?
2
Saviour, Lord, I know thee now!Mighty to redeem and save,
Such glory blazes on thy brow,
Which lights the darkness of the grave.
3
Saviour, Lord, the human soul,Forgotten every sorrow here,
Shall thus, aspiring to its goal,
Triumph in its native sphere.
