Easter flowers are blooming bright,
Easter skies pour radiant light:
Christ our Lord is risen in might,
Glory in the highest.
Angels caroled this sweet lay,
When in manger rude he lay;
Now once more cast grief away,
Glory in the highest.
He, then born to grief and pain,
Now to glory born again,
Calleth forth our gladdest strain,
Glory in the highest.
As he riseth, rise we too,
Tune we heart and voice anew
Offering homage glad and true,
Glory in the highest.
