#384: That Easter Day with Joy Was Bright

[lutheranhymns]

This is the other hymn that got mashed up in the extremely over-the-top Easter anthem our choir sang a couple times. Slightly different translation: this one has "O Christ, you are the Lord of all in this our Easter festival" (yes, that's supposed to be a rhyme). The anthem version is a bit old-fashioned, but it improves on that line with "O Lord of all, with us abide in this our joyful Eastertide."
