Hail the Glad Day
Author: Rev. Johnson Oatman, Jr. Hymnal: Light in the Valley #210 (1898) First Line: The buds and flow'rs to life are waking Refrain First Line: Christ now is risen Lyrics: 1 The buds and flow'rs to life are waking,
And forest songsters singing,
While children bright, all gloom forsaking,
Send forth their carols ringing!
All glory to the Lamb we render,
The Prince of Life and glory;
We praise His name in strains so tender,
And herald the old story.
Chorus:
Christ now is risen,
Mighty to save!
Burst is the prison,
And conquered the grave!
Shout, shout the tidings,
O'er land and sea!
Jesus is risen!
And man now is free.
2 Each heart today with joy is beaming,
The air is fill'd with gladness,
While peace and love their rays are streaming,
Dispelling thoughts of sadness,
The earth from sleep now wakes in beauty,
Arrayed in spring garb vernal,
Reminding us that after duty,
Our joys shall be eternal. [Chorus]
3 As flow'rs and buds were seen appearing,
Upon the rod of Aaron,
So from the tomb, all ages cheering,
Appeared the rose of Sharon,
Think of One flower to Mortals given,
When earth her forces rally,
The fairest flow'r in earth or heaven,
The Lily of the Valley. [Chorus]
4 Today as round the tomb we linger,
We find our faith grows brighter,
Hope points the way with index finger,
While Love makes duty lighter,
When with the last great foe we've striven,
We shall not sleep forever,
But rise to live with Christ in heaven,
Where death will enter never. [Chorus] Topics: Easter Languages: English Tune Title: [The buds and flow'rs to life are waking]
