#### AT THE BREAKING OF DAY

I

AT THE BREAKING OF DAY THE WORLD SLEPT AS NOW
GOD'S SON LEFT THE TOMB THE GUARDS KNEW NOT HOW
AN ANGEL FROM HEAVEN ROLLED THE GREAT STONE AWAY
AND THE TOMB WAS FOUND EMPTY AT THE BREAKING OF DAY.

II

GREAT FEAR GRIPPED THE KEEPERS THEY BECAME AS DEAD MEN
WHEN THEY FOUND THE TOMB WAS EMPTY WHERE JESUS HAS BEEN
GOD SENT AN EARTHQUAKE AN ANGEL CAME DOWN
NEATLY FOLDED THE LINEN THAT HAD MY LORD BOUND.

III

WHILE A NEW DAY IS DAWNING SOON HE'S COMING AGAIN
THE GREAT KING ON KINGS AS THE SAVIOR OF MEN
IN POWER AND GREAT GLORY WE'LL ALL SOAR AWAY
SO LOOK UP WEARY PILGRIM ITS THE BREAKING OF DAY.

IV

AT THE BREAKING OF DAY THE GRAVE COULD NOT HOLD HIM
HE AROSE THE THIRD DAY JUST LIKE HE HAD TOLD THEM
THANK GOD I'M SO GLAD THAT HE MADE A WAY
BY THE CROSS AND THE GRAVE AT THE BREAKING OF DAY.
