Risen Morning Star, our Light, early in the morning
Hallelujah, Saints and Angels sing
Now the bragging dragon trips, head so high, now fawning
Hallelujah, praise the risen King
Hallelujah, Saints and Angels sing
Yet that first hope nearly died with so little warning
Hallelujah, praise the risen King
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Mouth denied, forever drips, early in the morning
Hallelujah, oh, the sweet King wakes
The good, young King was crucified early in the morning
Dragons breed again to fight, fearful is their taunting
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, now the good King reigns
Hallelujah, empty claws proclaim
Breaking on the silent grave, early in the morning
Hallelujah, Saints and Angels sing
Hallelujah, oh, the bright dawn breaks
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Laid with Him the hope of day, early in the morning
Long the anxious claws had gripped, early in the morning
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Yet, we trust, Lord, Thy great might, early in the morning
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Saints and Angels fearful, pray, yearning for a dawning
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, praise the risen King
Steady in the waning night, early in the morning
Now vanquished claws have slipped, early in the morning
In the stone cold tomb He lay, early in the morning
