When Easter to the dark world came,
Fair flowers glowed like scarlet flame:
At Eastertide, at Eastertide,
O glad was the world at Eastertide.
When Mary in the garden walked,
And with her risen Master talked:
At Eastertide, at Eastertide,
O glad was the world at Eastertide.
When John and Peter in their gloom
Met angels at the empty tomb:
At Eastertide, at Eastertide,
O glad was the world at Eastertide.
When Thomas’ heart
with grief was black,
Then Jesus like a king came back:
At Eastertide, at Eastertide,
O glad was the world at Eastertide.
And friend to friend in wonder said:
‘The Lord is risen from the dead!’
At Eastertide, at Eastertide,
O glad was the world at Eastertide.
This Eastertide with joyful voice
We’ll sing: ‘The Lord is King! Rejoice!’
At Eastertide, at Eastertide,
O sing, all the world, for Eastertide.
