Let the angels gaze in silence
Let the sons of mortals sleep
Let the shaken earth be still again
And her sabbath keep
Let the tombs of saints be opened
Let the faithful dead step forth
For salvation is created
In the midst of earth
For the gates of hell are broken
And the Savior enters in
To give light to those in the shadow of death
And release from sin
For the gates of hell are broken
And the Savior enters in
To give light to those in the shadow of death
And release from sin
For the gates of hell are broken
And the Savior enters in
To give light to those in the shadow of death
And release from sin
Now for God's beloved people
There remains a sabbath rest
For the Lord prepares a place for us
In His mansions blest
For the gates of hell are broken
And the Savior enters in
To give light to those in the shadow of death
And release from sin
To give light to those in the shadow of death
And release from sin
