Twine the Easter Garland

Twine the East­er gar­land

Deck the grave with flow­ers;

Jesus Christ hath con­quered

Death’s en­thrall­ing pow­ers;

Satan

sin and sor­row

Lie be­neath His feet;

Christians

raise your voic­es

Sing His tri­umph sweet.

Twine the East­er gar­land

Deck the grave with flow­ers

Jesus Christ hath con­quered

Death’s en­thralling pow­ers.

Like a migh­ty vic­tor

Rose the Lord that morn;

Brighter light and pur­er

On this earth was born;

Rays of hope and mer­cy

Round His form are shed;

Scattered doubt and show­ered

Glory on the dead.

Faith

a ray of glo­ry

Shows the emp­ty tomb

And the ma­ny man­sions

Of the Sav­ior’s home

Where the saints were rest­ing

After death and grave:

Christians

we can con­quer

Sing His pow­er to save.
