Easter Greeting Song

The bless­èd East­er comes again

The holy Sab­bath dawn­ing

With an­thems sweet we come to greet

The re­sur­rect­ion morn­ing.

Hail the day! hail the day!

Sing with joy and mirth;

Flowers fair

ev­ery­where

Gladness fills the earth.

He is ris­en from the grave

He is ris’n

the world to save

Hail the day

hail the day

Hail the East­er day!

We meet with­in the house of praise

With flow’rs for its ad­orn­ing

And glad­ly sing

to Him

our king

This re­sur­rect­ion morn­ing.

As all the won­der of His love

Within our hearts is dawn­ing

We’ll live with care

that we may share

His re­sur­rect­ion morn­ing.
