Hark! from the fields triumphant life is springing
Forth from the earth ascension bells are ringing;
There’s no room for pain and grief
Easter time brings sweet relief
Life now pushes bud and leaf
Life
life
life!
exultant life
we meet thee;
triumphant life
we greet thee;
No more the tomb affrights with its gloom
For death hath given place to life.
Nature awakes from winter’s stern dominion
Upward faith soars on airy
buoyant pinion;
Earth hath time for naught but joy
Rapture sweet
without alloy
Men their highest praise employ
Our souls look up from error’s doubts appalling
Forth to the skies where faith and hope are calling;
All our fears are past and gone;
Light of life
shine freely on;
Hail the resurrection dawn
