The Bells of Easter

Author: Burton H. Winslow Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #467 First Line: The bells of Easter sweetly peal Refrain First Line: Shines the glorious heav'nly portal! Lyrics: 1. The bells of Easter sweetly peal: Christ is risen! Christ is risen! They chime the hope He doth reveal, This joyful Easter day. The Lord of Life hath gone on high; Christ is risen! Christ is risen! Rejoice, with swelling notes they cry! Rejoice, rejoice! they say. Refrain Shines the glorious heav’nly portal! Angel songs we almost hear! O the joy of life immortal. When in glory we appear. O the joy of life immortal. When in glory we appear. 2. The shining Easter angels say: Christ is risen! Christ is risen! Come, see the place where Jesus lay, He’s ris’n: He is not here. No longer held in death’s embrace; Christ is risen! Christ is risen! Ye shall behold Him face to face, In glory to appear. [Refrain] 3. Repeat the tidings far and wide! Christ is risen! Christ is risen! No longer Christ the crucified, But Christ the mighty King. For us exalted evermore; Christ is risen! Christ is risen! While the heav’nly hosts our Lord adore, Let all creation sing! [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [The bells of Easter sweetly peal]
