Again the Lord of Light and Life

(Original lyrics)

1 

Again the Lord of light and life

Awakes the kindling ray,

Dispels the darkness of the night,

And pours increasing day.

2

O what a night was that which wrapt

A guilty world in gloom!

O what a sun, which rose this day

Triumphant from the tomb!

3 

This day be grateful homage paid,

And loud hosannas sung;

Let gladness dwell in every heart,

And praise on every tongue.

4 

Ten thousand thousand lips shall join

To hail this happy morn,

Which scatters blessings from its wings

On nations yet unborn.

 

Author: Anna L. Barbauld 1743-1825

I couldn't find a real good video for this one...
