¶Lyrics / Text

1 This joyful Eastertide away with sin and sorrow! My love, the Crucified, has sprung to life this morrow. Refrain: Had Christ, who once was slain, not burst his three-day prison, our faith had been in vain: but now hath Christ arisen, arisen, arisen; but now has Christ arisen! 2 Death's flood has lost its chill since Jesus crossed the river. Lover of souls, from ill my passing soul deliver. [Refrain] 3 My flesh in hope shall rest and for a season slumber till trump from east to west shall wake the dead in number. [Refrain]
