Blow, golden trumpets, sweet and clear,
Blow soft upon the perfumed air;
Bid the sad earth to join our song,
“To Christ does victory belong!”
Oh, let the winds your message bear
To every heart of grief and care;
Sound through the world the joyful lay,
“Our Christ hath conquered Death today!”
On cloudy wings let glad words fly
Through the soft blue of echoing sky:
Ring out, O trumpets, sweet and clear,
“Through Death immortal Life is here!”
(Margaret Deland)
