Hail the day that saw Him rise
Ravished from our wishful eyes;
Christ awhile to mortals given
Re-ascends His native heaven.
 
There the pompous triumph waits,
Lift your heads, eternal gates.
Wide unfold the radiant scene,
Take the king of glory in!

Hail the day that saw Him rise
Ravished from our wishful eyes;
Christ awhile to mortals given
Re-ascends His native heaven.

There the pompous triumph waits,
Lift your heads, eternal gates.
Wide unfold the radiant scene,
Take the king of glory in!
