At Easter Time

At Easter Time

by Laura E. Richards

The little flowers came through the ground,

At Easter time, at Easter time :

They raised their heads and looked around.

At happy Easter time.

And every pretty bud did say,

"Good people, bless this holy day,

For Christ is risen, the angels say

At happy Easter time!"

The pure white lily raised its cup

At Easter time, at Easter time.

The crocus to the sky looked up

At happy Easter time.

"We'll hear the song of Heaven ! " they say,

"It's glory shines on us to-day.

Oh ! may it shine on us alway

At holy Easter time!"

'Twas long and long and long ago,

That Easter time, that Easter time;

But still the pure white lilies blow

At happy Easter time.

And still each little flower doth say,

"Good Christians, bless this holy day,

For Christ is risen, the angels say

At blessed Easter time!"

The bunnies work the whole day through.
