Soft and sweet the bells are ring­ing,
From the cha­pel old and gray;
Sweet and soft the child­ren sing­ing,
Christ the Lord arose to­day.

Refrain

Sweetly, soft­ly sounds the an­them,
For the stone is rolled away;
Glory, hon­or, give to Je­sus,
On this Re­sur­rec­tion day.

Sweeter far than earth­ly mu­sic,
Since the Christ­mas me­lo­dy,
Is this song of East­er glo­ry,
This glad psalm of vic­to­ry.

Refrain

Love’s re­deem­ing work is fin­ished,
Fought the fight, the vic­to­ry won;
Glory, glo­ry in the high­est
To the Fa­ther and the Son.
