When Easter Comes

When East­er comes

From heart and homes

Let prais­es rise;

The strife is o’er

Death rules no more;

The Lord is King!

On Christ­mas morn

When Christ was born

We sang for joy!

But now He reigns

And high­er strains

Our tongues em­ploy.

O ris­en Lord

O Light re­stored

With quick­en­ing pow­ers

Arise and shine!

Our life be Thine

Since Thine is ours!
