  1. 1Sing with all the sons of glory,
  2. Sing the resurrection song!
  3. Death and sorrow, earth's dark story,
  4. To the former days belong.
  5. All around the clouds are breaking,
  6. Soon the storms of earth shall cease,

  8. Knows the everlasting peace.

  14. All that eye has yet perceived!
  15. Holiest hearts, for ages pleading,
  16. Never that full joy conceived.

  27. Join, O man, the deathless voices,
  28. Child of God, lift up thy head!
  29. Patriarchs from the distant ages,
  30. Saints all longing for their heav’n,
  31. Prophets, psalmists, seers and sages,
  32. All await the glory giv’n.
  33. Sing aloud the glad refrain,
  34. Our Redeemer lives again!
  35. Sing aloud the glad refrain,
  36. Our Redeemer lives again.
