Because You Live, O Christ,
The Garden Of The World Has Come To Flower;
The Darkness Of The Tomb
Is Flooded With Your Resurrection Power.
The Stone Has Rolled Away
And Death Cannot Imprison!
O Sing This Easter Day,
For Jesus Christ Has Risen,
Has Risen, Has Risen, Has Risen!
Because You Live, O Christ,
The Spirit Bird Of Hope Is Freed For Flying;
Our Cages Of Despair
No Longer Keep Us Closed And Life-Denying.
Because You Live, O Christ,
The Rainbow Of Your Peace Will Span Creation,
The Colors Of Your Love
Will Draw All Humankind To Adoration.
