229. The Message of Gladness

1 There’s a vision of angels, a stone rolled away,
A song full of wondrous delight;
There’s a message of gladness, a word of good cheer,
A glory that gleams thro’ earth’s drear night.

Refrain:
There’s a message of gladness, O tell it again,
Till hearts shall rejoicingly sing,
In tune to the music that echoes afar,
“All praise to the conquering King!”

2 With the springtime of beauty our Lord doth arise
In souls that have victory won;
Blooms the cross with bright blossoms, the flowers of hope,
For life thro’ the Savior just begun. [Refrain]

3 We can pass thro’ the shadows where Jesus has trod,
His light shall illumine each way;
Hail to him who is reigning, by angels adored,
The Lord of our blessed Easter day. [Refrain]
