1 See your hands overflowing with flowers:
let me ask you, who are your flowers for?
They are flowers I had gathered for Jesus;
empty is the tomb he is there no more!
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah!
2 Hear your voice overflowing with singing:
tell me, have you known such delight for long?
O, my Lord from the grave has arisen;
all the earth will ring with an Easter song!
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah!
3 Look, your eyes overflowing with laughter:
say what makes them shine with a light so rare?
It is Jesus the Lord he is living;
every day is radiant, for he is there!
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah!
4 Now you need no more wreaths for his body:
in our risen Lord are his people raised.
So with eye, heart and hand we shall serve him,
and our voices sing, Jesus Christ be praised!
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah!
