RESURRECTION
Easter morn in radiant glory
Dawneth o'er the earth again!
Bursting blossoms tell, thy story
O'er and o'er in glad refrain;
   From thy prison
   Hast thou risen,
  Resurrection art thou singing,
  Praise to thy Creator bringing.

Lord of Easter! let thy glory
Ease our sorrowing hearts of pain;
O'er and o'er the wondrous story
May we sing in glad refrain;
   Christ is risen
   From Death's prison,
  Light from darkness Faith is bringing;
  Joy and Hope are now upspringing.
