EN 3292 Sing the Joy of Easter Day
Matt.28.6
Versi Version 1
Sing the joy of Easter Day,
The Easter triumph tell,
Jesus rose on Easter Day,
The Lord Who loves us well.
1
Good Joseph had a garden;
Close by that sad green hill
Where Jesus died a bitter death
To save mankind from ill.
2
One evening in that garden
Their faces dark with gloom,
They laid the Savior’s body
Within good Joseph’s tomb.
3
There came the holy women
With spices and with tears;
The angels tried to comfort them,
But could not calm their fears.
4
Came Mary to that garden
And sobbed with heart forlorn;
She thought she heard the gardener ask
“Whom seekest thou this morn?”
5
She heard her own name spoken,
And then she lost her care;
All in His strength and beauty
The risen Lord stood fair!
6
Good Joseph had a garden;
Amid its trees so tall
The Lord Christ stood in Easter Day;
He lives to save us all.
7
And as He rose at Easter
He is alive for ay,
The very same Lord Jesus Christ
Who hears us sing today.
8
Go tell the Lord Christ’s message,
The Easter triumph sing,
Till all His waiting children know
That Jesus is their King.
