Happy Easter! *SOLD*

This joyful Eastertide,

away with sin and sorrow!

My Love, the Crucified,
hath sprung to life this morrow!
Had Christ, that once was slain,
ne'er burst his three-day prison,
our faith had been in vain;
but now is Christ arisen,
arisen, arisen, arisen!

Death's flood hath lost its chill,
since Jesus crossed the river:
Lover of souls, from ill
my passing soul deliver,

My flesh in hope shall rest,
and for a season slumber,
till trump from east to west
shall wake the dead in number.

 

Had Christ, that once was slain,
ne'er burst his three-day prison,
our faith had been in vain;
but now is Christ arisen,
arisen, arisen, arisen!

 

HAPPY EASTER!
