|
<p>Sweet and clear the birds are singing,<br>
|
|
At Easter dawn.<br>
|
|
Hark, O hear, the bells are ringing,<br>
|
|
On Easter morn!<br>
|
|
And the song that they sing,<br>
|
|
That good news we hear them ring,<br>
|
|
Is “Christ the Lord is risen, is risen.”</p>
|
|
<p>Birds, your hearts give to your singing,<br>
|
|
And feel no fear.<br>
|
|
Bells, fill all the air with ringing,<br>
|
|
Let all men hear!<br>
|
|
For the whole world is glad,<br>
|
|
And with beauty new is clad;<br>
|
|
Now Christ the Lord is risen, is risen.</p>
|
|
<p>Leaf and bud, as now, were growing<br>
|
|
In Galilee;<br>
|
|
Lilies Jesus loved were blowing<br>
|
|
As fair to see;<br>
|
|
When the first Easter morn<br>
|
|
Woke the world to joy new born,<br>
|
|
For Christ the Lord is risen, was risen.</p>
|
|
<p>Easter buds will soon be flowers,<br>
|
|
Fragrant and gay;<br>
|
|
Winter’s snows give place to showers,<br>
|
|
And night to day;<br>
|
|
Hope and joy come again,<br>
|
|
Life and light forever reign;<br>
|
|
Yea! Christ the Lord is risen, is risen!</p>
