An Hymn intended to be sung on Easter-Day.
Recitative.
Ah! whence these dreadful Peals of Thunder,That seem to shake the World asunder;
299
The darted Lightnings fly;
And show beneath a horrid Gloom;
'Tis Earth and Heav'n laments our Loss,
In Jesus bleeding on the Cross;
Now laid quite low within his Tomb.
Chorus.
How great, how wond'rous great and good,To spill for us his precious Blood.
Recitative.
But see the Sun darts forth his Rays,And shines again with stronger Blaze;
Bright Angels joyful throng around,
And all their Harps celestial Sound!
Blest Jesus quits his mortal Shrowds,
And rides triumphant on the Clouds.
Chorus.
Only Darling Son of God,Welcome to this blest Abode.
Allelujah.
