1 Twine the Easter garland,
Deck the grave with flowers;
Jesus Christ hath conquered
Death’s enthralling powers;
Satan, sin and sorrow
Lie beneath His feet;
Christians, raise your voices,
Sing His triumph sweet.

Refrain:
Twine the Easter garland,
Deck the grave with flowers,
Jesus Christ hath conquered
Death’s enthralling powers.

2 Like a mighty victor
Rose the Lord that morn;
Brighter light and purer
On this earth was born;
Rays of hope and mercy,
Round His form are shed;
Scattered doubt and showered
Glory on the dead. [Refrain]

3 Faith, a ray of glory,
Shows the empty tomb
And the many mansions
Of the Savior’s home,
Where the saints were resting,
After death and grave:
Christians, we can conquer
Sing His power to save. [Refrain]

In some hymnals, the editors noted that a hymn's author is unknown to them, and so this artificial "person" entry is used to reflect that fact. Obviously, the hymns attributed to "Author Unknown" "Unknown" or "Anonymous" could have been written by many people over a span of many centuries. Go to person page >
