Swing
snowy lilies
to and fro;
Tell ye the story soft and low;
Jesus is risen
empty the grave;
Victor triumphant
He cometh to save.
Sing
snowy lilies! Oh
tell out your joy!
Tell out your joy! Tell out your joy!
Lift the glad carol
the victor’s palm wave
Jesus is risen
almighty to save!
Swing
snowy lilies
tell it wide
Once more He lives
the Crucified;
Pain of the scourging and cross are past;
His is the vict’ry at last
yes
at last.
Swing
snowy lilies
pure and white
Bring ye love’s off’ring
life and light;
Beauty and fragrance
your all now bring
Into His presence
the great risen King.
