Beautiful Lilies

Beautiful lil­ies

White as the snow

Speak to us soft­ly

Of long ago;

Telling of Je­sus

Who from the grave

Rose all vic­tor­ious

Mighty to save.

Beautiful lil­ies

White as the snow

Speak to us sof­tly

Of long ago;

Beautiful lil­ies

Beautiful lil­ies

Speak to us soft­ly

Of long ago.

Lilies of East­er

Blossoms of spring

Wake from their slum­ber

Gladness to bring.

O they are ev­er

Heaven’s bright sign

Of life be­yond us

Endless

di­vine.

E’en as our Fa­ther

From win­ter’s night

Waketh the lil­ies

To sum­mer’s light

So His dear child­ren

His love will keep

Waking them soft­ly

From death’s long sleep.
