Easter flow­ers, East­er ca­rols
Deck the al­tar, fill the air;
Glorious dawns the hap­py morn­ing
O’er a world so bright and fair.

Refrain

Alleluia, let us sing,
Alleluia to the King!

When the clouds of night were brok­en,
Angels rolled the stone away,
And on this bright East­er morn­ing,
Sing we now the tri­umph lay.

Refrain

In the mists of ear­ly morn­ing,
Came the faith­ful to the tomb,
Angel guard­ians clad in white robes,
Sat there in the break­ing gloom.

Refrain

He is ris­en! thus the an­gel
Spake unto the faith­ful three,
He is ris­en, won­drous story,
He has gone to Ga­li­lee.

Refrain

Now the clouds of night are brok­en,
Mortals now the sto­ry tell,
He is ris­en! Al­le­lu­ia!
Let the joy­ful an­them swell.
