1 Oh, beautiful, beautiful Easter,
What joy to us you bring!
What pleasures sweet, when here we meet,
To praise our risen king!
Refrain:
Easter! Easter!
Beautiful, beautiful Easter!
Day so dear, so full of cheer,
And happiness and love!
Easter! Easter!
Beautiful, beautiful Easter!
Christians, raise your sweetest praise
To God above.
2 No sadness now lingers around us,
For all the world looks bright;
And glad eyes glow, where’er we go,
With blessèd Easter light. [Refrain]
3 The songbirds are joyously singing,
And bells make merry rhyme;
Yes, all things say or sing today,
’Tis gladsome Easter-time. [Refrain]
4 Oh, glorious Savior, Thy praises
Today our souls employ,
For Thou dost live again to give
This time of light and joy. [Refrain]
