Lord, Thy death and resurrection,
We show this day.
'Tis a tribute of affection
We all should pay.
Wine out-pour'd, bread now broken,
Of Thy sacrifice the token,
Even so, as Thou has spoken,
We will obey.
Till Thou come we will remember
Thine agony.
Of Thy body ev'ry member
Suffers with Thee.
But the glory that shall follow
On that glad long-looked-for morrow,
Merging from the night of sorrow,
Revealed shall be.
Till the morning break, O may we
Be wholly Thine.
Sun of Righteousness, we pray Thee
Now rise and shine.
Come, Lord! Come! from heaven descending,
All the angelic host attending,
To bestow the life unending,
Nature Divine.
