The Hymnal Of The Protestant Episcopal Church In The Usa

7.7.7.6

[2161]Glory in the Highest:

Frederick A. G. Ouseley, 1877

Refrain

Mary A. Nicholson, 1875

Easter flowers are blooming bright,

Easter skies pour radiant light:

Christ our Lord is risen in might,

Angels caroled this sweet lay,

When in manger rude he lay;

Now once more cast grief away,

He, then born to grief and pain,

Now to glory born again,

Calleth forth our gladdest strain,

As he riseth, rise we too,

Tune we heart and voice anew,

Offering homage glad and true,

Glory in the highest.

Amen.
