CGS Lyrics
Verse 1
Welcome, happy morning! age to age shall say:
Hell today is vanquished; Heaven is won today!
Lo! the dead is living, God for evermore!
Him, their true Creator, all His works adore.
Chorus
Welcome, happy morning! Age to age shall say,
Hell today is vaquished; heaven is won today.
Verse 2
Maker and Redeemer, life and health of all,
Thou from heaven beholding human nature's fall,
Of the Father's Godhead true and only Son,
Manhood to deliver, manhood didst put on.
Chorus
Welcome, happy morning!? Age to age shall say,
Hell today is vaquished; heaven is won today.
Verse 3
Thou, of life the Author, death didst undergo,
Tread the path of darkness, saving strength to show;
Come, then True and Faithful, now fulfill Thy word;
'Tis Thine own third morning; Rise, O buried Lord!
Chorus
Welcome, happy morning! Age to age shall say,
Hell today is vaquished; heaven is won today.
Verse 4
Loose the souls long prisoned, bound with Satan's chain;
All that now is fallen raise to life again;
Show Thy face in brightness, bid the nations see;
Bring again our daylight; day returns with Thee.
Chorus
