Could We Refuse A Song Of Praise,
This Easter Morn To Sing?
Should We Refuse, The Very Stones
A Song Of Praise Would Ring.
The Earth Has Broken Winter’s Thrall,
The Birds Begin To Sing;
The Trees Put Forth Their Tender Shoots,
And Thus Their Praises Bring;
The Very Air Is Pulsing, Too,
With Music All Around;
The Flowers Look From Grassy Nooks
As Wakened By The Sound.
The Sun Rolls Higher On His Path,
Rejoicing In His Ways;
The Streams Have Burst Their Icy Bonds
To Join The Song Of Praise.
For O, One Far Off Easter Morn,
Christ Cleft The Realms Of Night;
He Gained The Victor’s Glorious Crown,
And Gave Us Life And Light;
He Broke The Bonds Of Death And Hell,
The World Has Suffered Long,
And Gave Us Themes Of Life And Love,
For Each New Easter Song.
