9118. Easter Song

1 Sweet Easter morn that saw the Lord arise,
Sweet Easter day when praises rent the skies,
Shed o’er me, with thy rays of healing balm,
A heav’nly peace, a high and holy calm.

2 Sweet harbinger of joy and peace and love,
Glad ensign of a glorious life above,
Thy peaceful vigils in my life shall reign,
Banish all doubts and hallow grief and pain.
