Tune:	[Easter flowers are blooming bright]
Composer:	A. F. M. Custance

1 Easter flowers are blooming bright,
Easter skies pour radiant light,
Christ our Lord is risen in might,
Glory in the highest.

Refrain:
Glory in the highest,
Glory in the highest,
Jesus Christ has risen again,
Glory in the highest.

2 Angels caroled this sweet lay,
When in manger rude He lay;
Now once more cast grief away,
Glory in the highest. [Refrain]

3 He, then born to grief and pain,
Now to glory born again,
Calleth forth our gladdest strain,
Glory in the highest. [Refrain]

4 As He riseth, rise we too,
Tune we heart and voice anew,
Offering homage glad and true,
Glory in the highest. [Refrain]
