| | | “WHO will roll away the stone? | |
| We are few and are alone,” | |
| Say the women, sad and weak; | |
| “Who will give the help we seek?” | |
| |
| Thus in whispers low they talk, | 5 |
| Sighing on their early walk, | |
| Of the work that has been done | |
| Ere the rising of the sun. | |
| |
| Who will climb into the sky, | |
| Bring redemption from on high? | 10 |
| Who will light the dreary grave, | |
| And the dead and dying save? | |
| |
| All is done that thou wouldst do; | |
| All is finished, soul for you; | |
| Life is born, and death is dead, | 15 |
| Day is shining, night has fled. | | | | |
