Never so sweet a hush
In all Judean nights,
Never so fair a sun


Rose DER Judean heights.
Never SO. lowering close
Did all Of heaven lean,
AS when approached the tomb
The weeping Magdalene.
What marvel greets her eyes!
Too tear bedimmed are they! ,
Behold no portal barred,
The stone. is rolled away!
Vacant the sheltering depth
Where he was laid to rest;
Vacant the narrow space
Whereon his body priest.
Only the cerements white
Where he. the Son, had lain;
Only at head and foot
Tho guardian angels twain
The guarding angels twain.
OF gentle mien and grave,
To speak Of word fulfilled
OF him who died to save.
How spread the mighty truth!
How all the earth OWNED!
What glorious promise kept
The Saviour of mankind!
And so the world is glad
And men, rejoicing, pray,
As did his servants when
Came the first Easter day.
