EASTER, JOYOUS EASTER Lyrics:

Easter, joyous Easter, holy happy time!
Bells ring out their message, joy in every chime;
Sweetly through their music, faint an echo swells,
Voices seem to mingle with the bells. (Glad Easter bells.)

Refrain

Seek ye not the living here among the dead;
Christ the Lord is risen, risen as He said;
Blessèd reassurance, gone the weary night,
Christ is risen! Easter breaks in floods of light!

Voices in a garden, near a rock-hewn tomb,
Gracious heav'nly voices, cheering earth's dark gloom;
Voices from the glory, sent from thence to tell,
Jesus lives again! Immanuel! (Immanuel!)

Refrain

Other voices echo, through the Easter chime
One above all others, speaks with pow'r sublime;
Tender words of comfort, peace and love profound,
O'er the world today His words resound. (His words resound.)

Refrain
