Till Easter Shines O'er the World

Representative Text

1 Raise high the gospel banner
That proudly is unfurled;
Proclaim the pow's of Jesus' might
Till Easter shines o'er the world!
Till Easter shines o'er the world!
Till Easter shines o'er the world!

Chorus:
Let it wave!
Raise high the gospel banner bright!
Let it wave!
Proclaim the pow'r of Jesus' might!
Let it wave!
Nor let the standard e'er be furled!
Let it wave!
Till Easter shines o'er all the world!

2 Let pow'rs of wrong and darkness
From earth's domains be hurled,
Till all shall sing redemption's song
And Easter shines o'er the world!
And Easter shines o'er the world!
And Easter shines o'er the world! [Chorus]

3 O haste the day of gladness
When sin's dark flags are furled,
When all shall hail a risen Lord
And Easter shines o'er the world!
And Easter shines o'er the world!
And Easter shines o'er the world! [Chorus]
