Thou hallowed chosen morn of praise,
that best and greatest shinest:
fair Easter, queen of all the days,
of seasons, best, divinest!
Christ rose from death; and we adore
for ever and for evermore.
Come, let us taste the vine’s new fruit,
for heavenly joy preparing;
today the branches with the root
in resurrection sharing:
whom as true God our hymns adore
for ever and for evermore.
