The day of resurrection! Earth, tell it out abroad The Passover of gladness The Passover of God From death to life eternal From earth unto the sky Our Christ hath brought us over With hymns of victory
Our hearts be pure from evil That we may see aright The Lord in rays eternal Of resurrectionlight And, listening to His accents May hear so calm and plain His own "All hail," and, hearing May raise the victorstrain

Now let the heavens be joyful Let earth her song begin The round world keep high triumph And all that is therein Let all things seen and unseen Their notes together blend For Christ the Lord is risen Our joy that hath no end
