LET the dead Past be crucified,

The Past for all is full of pain,
Time shall not slay, nor Death divide,
Now Christ the Lord hath risen again.
To-night within the tomb He sleeps,
And hides our sinful lives away;
And all the morrow silent keeps,-
Arise! Oh glorious Easter Day!
The anchor'd Hope of all this Earth

The golden April hours will bring;

Flowers to the woods, to souls new birth,

And to the heart an inner spring.

Who loves not Easter? Holiest time

And radiance of the circling year!

Flow forth to greet my Friend, sweet rhyme,

And henceforth sing it,-doubly dear.
