1 O day of resurrection,
Most holy, fair and bright!
That from the night of sorrow
Sprang forth with living light.
We hail thy holy dawning
With songs of joy once more
And tell the wondrous tidings
In gladness o’er and o’er!

Refrain:
The Lord is ris’n indeed!
And glory crowns the King!
The Lord is ris’n indeed,
The joyful tidings ring!
Rejoice, rejoice, rejoice, rejoice!
O earth, exultant sing!

2 Bring fragrant buds and blossoms,
And Easter lilies fair,
To fill the holy temple
With incense pure and rare!
The flowers of resurrection
Make sweet and fair the spring,
And sacred inspiration
From their Creator bring! [Refrain]

3 O blessed Lord triumphant,
No sorrow crowns Thee now,
But majesty eternal
Adorns Thy holy brow!
The work of love is finished,
The sacrifice is done!
All hail, O risen Savior,
The victory is won! [Refrain]
