Soft and sweet the bells are ringing
From the steeple old and grey;
Sweet and soft the children singing—
Christ the Lord arose today!
Sweetly, softly sounds the anthem,
For the stone is rolled away;
Glory, honour give to Jesus,
On this resurrection day.
Sweeter far than earthly music,
Since the Christmas melody,
Is this song of Easter glory,
This glad psalm of victory.
Sweetly, softly sounds the anthem,
For the stone is rolled away;
Glory, honour give to Jesus,
On this resurrection day.
Love’s redeeming work is finished,
Fought the fight, the vict’ry won;
Glory, glory in the highest,
To the Father and the Son!
Sweetly, softly sounds the anthem,
For the stone is rolled away;
Glory, honour give to Jesus,
On this resurrection day.
