All the Happy Birds of Spring

Representative Text

1 All the happy birds of spring
Seem to lift their hearts and ding,
"Christ arose on Easter day."

2 All the flowers in radiant bloom
Say with color and perfume,
"Christ arose on Easter day."

3 Fresh new leaves on all the tress
Seem to whisper in the breeze,
"Christ arose on Easter day."

4 Church bells ringing far and near
Bring this message sweet and clear,
"Christ arose on Easter day."

5 Let us then rejoice and sing
With the gladness of the spring,
"Christ arose on Easter day."
