Easter Is
Tom T. Hall · Saturday Morning Songs [RCA Victor] [1979]
We all know Jesus died upon the cross
Jesus' friends thought that he might be lost
But he arose and walked out of the tomb
He went to heaven to prepare a room.
Oh, you should be happy, you should be glad
Easter is the time we learn that good is better than bad
You might see an Easter bunny or Easter egg that someone hid
It's a wonderful time, that's what Easter is.
--- Instrumental ---
Easter comes on Sunday every year
Easter is the sign that spring is here
We get dressed up and smile 'cause Jesus lives
It's a wonderful time, that's what Easter is.
Oh, you should be happy, you should be glad
Easter is the time we learn that good is better than bad
You might see an Easter bunny or Easter egg that someone hid
It's a wonderful time, that's what Easter is.
--- Instrumental ---
On Easter you might see a big parade
Some funny bunnies and some colored eggs
A great big smile is all you have to give
It's a happy time, that's what Easter is.
It's a wonderful time, that's what Easter is...
Jesus' friends thought that he might be lost
But he arose and walked out of the tomb
He went to heaven to prepare a room.
Oh, you should be happy, you should be glad
Easter is the time we learn that good is better than bad
You might see an Easter bunny or Easter egg that someone hid
It's a wonderful time, that's what Easter is.
