It's Easter Time It's Easter time, the bells on the hill are ringing, ringing once again There's a smile on the face of this weary world that seems to say "amen" It's Easter time, the bonnets are gaily nodding, nodding to and fro While the folks walk to church as they did so long ago! And there's a basket on the dining room table with fancy Easter eggs for all And there's a Lilly in all it's glory, waiting in the hall . . . It's Easter time, the dawn of the year is shining in the hearts of men With the joys and the hopes that have risen once again! < instrumental break > ( And there's a basket on the dining room table with fancy Easter eggs for all . . . ) And there's a Lilly in all it's glory, waiting in the hall . . . It's Easter time, the dawn of the year is shining in the hearts of men With the joys and the hopes that have risen once again! ( It's Easter time . . . ) It's Easter time, again!
