Day Was Dark, And All Seemed Lost, The

The day was dark, and all seemed lost when to the tomb

They bore the form of Christ the crucified.

Loved ones hoped that He would reign-

But their hopes were all in vain,

For they saw Him as upon the cross He died.

Refrain

But there dawned a resurrection morn so fair,

When the Savior rose from out the tomb;

For the angels came and rolled the stone away,

And today is banished all earth's gloom.

The stone before the door was set and firmly sealed-

A guard was placed to watch by night and day,

For they feared that from the dead

He would rise as He had said,

Or perchance His own would spirit Him away.

Refrain

Oh, sad and lonely ones today, look up! rejoice!

The empty tomb with praises may resound,

Over mountain, hill and plain,

Let there ring the glad refrain,

Bringing hope and cheer wherever man is found.

Refrain
