11771. Oh, Earth! Throughout Thy Borders

1 Oh, Earth! throughout thy borders,
Redon thy fairest dress;
And everywhere, oh, Nature!
Throb with new happiness;
Once more to new creation
Awake, and death gainsay,

Refrain:
For death is swallowed up of life,
And Christ is ris’n today!

2 Let peals of jubilation
Ring out in all the lands;
With hearts of deep elation
Let sea with sea clasp hands;
Let one supreme Te Deum
Roll round the world’s highway, [Refrain]
