The Day Draws on with Golden Light

Author: Thomas A. Lacey Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #1181 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1. The day draws on with golden light, Glad songs go echoing through the height, The broad earth lifts an answering cheer, The deep makes moan with wailing fear. 2. For lo, He comes, the mighty King, To take from death his power and sting, To trample down his gloomy reign And break the weary prisoner’s chain. 3. Enclosed He lay in rocky cell, With guard of armèd sentinel; But thence returning, strong and free, He comes with pomp of jubilee. 4. The sad Apostles mourn Him slain, Nor hope to see their Lord again; Their Lord, whom rebel thralls defy, Arraign, accuse, and doom to die. 5. But now they put their grief away, The pains of hell are loosed today; For by the grave, with flashing eyes, Your Lord is risen, the angel cries. 6. Maker of all, to Thee we pray, Fulfill in us Thy joy today; When death assails, grant, Lord, that we May share Thy Paschal victory. 7. To Thee who, dead, again, dost live, All glory, Lord, Thy people give; All glory, as is ever meet, To Father and to Paraclete. Languages: English Tune Title: FEDERAL STREET

Author: T. A. Lacey, 1853-1931 Hymnal: The New English Hymnal #100a (1986) Lyrics: 1 The day draws on with golden light, Glad songs go echoing through the height, The broad earth lifts an answering cheer, And hell makes moan with wailing fear. 2 For lo, he comes, the mighty King, To take from death his power and sting, To trample down his gloomy reign, And break the weary prisoner’s chain. 3 Enclosed he lay in rocky cell, With guard of armèd sentinel; But thence returning, strong and free, He comes in might of victory. 4 The sad Apostles mourn him slain, Nor hope to see their Lord again, When, to their very eyes restored, They look upon the risen Lord. 5 *Those wounds before their eyes displayed They see in heavenly light arrayed, And what they see they testify In open witness fearlessly. 6 *O Christ, the King of gentleness, Thy people's hearts do thou possess, That we may render all our days An endless sacrifice of praise. 7 Maker of all, to thee we pray, Fulfil in us thy joy today; When death assails, grant, Lord, that we May share thy Paschal victory. 8 To thee who, dead, again dost live, All glory, Lord, thy people give, All glory to the Father be And Spirit blest, eternally.
