'Awake, arise, lift your voice,
let Easter music swell;
rejoice in Christ, again rejoice
and on his praises dwell.
Oh, with what gladness and surprise
the saints in their Savior greet;
nor will they trust their ears and eyes
but by his hand and feet,
those hands of liberal love indeed
in infinite degree,
those feet still free to move and bleed
for millions, and for me.'
Christopher Smart in Fleming Rutledge, The Crucifixion, p.612.
