All the winter of our sins, Long and dark, is flying From His light, to whom we give Laud and praise undying. 3 Now the queen of seasons, bright With the day of splendor, With the royal feast of feasts, Comes its joy to render; Comes to glad Jerusalem, Who with true affection Welcomes in unwearied strains Jesus' resurrection. 4 "Halleluia!" now we cry To our King Immortal, Who, triumphant, burst the bars Of the tomb's dark portal; "Halleluia!" with the Son, God the Father praising; "Halleluia!" yet again To the Spirit raising.
