Shines the bless�d sunlight, Easter morning breaks;
Unto life and gladness all the world awakes;
Now has come salvation, ever full and free,
Christ our Lord has purchased bless�d liberty.
Praise Him, from the grave!
Praise Him, strong to save!
Songs of gladness raise,
Everlasting praise.
Carol forth His praises, twine your garlands gay;
See, the tomb of darkness gleams with Heaven�s ray;
Tell the sweetest message known to mortal men,
Jesus, King and Savior, lives and reigns again.
Praise Him, from the grave!
Praise Him, strong to save!
Songs of gladness raise,
Everlasting praise.
Glows the bless�d sunlight in our hearts today,
Rolling clouds of sorrow from our souls away;
Gleaming out with beauty thro� the skies afar,
Shines anew the risen Christ, our Morning Star.
Praise Him, from the grave!
Praise Him, strong to save!
Songs of gladness raise,
Everlasting praise.

Praise Him, from the grave!
Praise Him, strong to save!
Songs of gladness raise,
Everlasting praise.
