The day might mean family, friends and fun,
egg hunts, bunnies, bonnets and ham
picnics, gardening, games and sun.
But whatever you do, whatever planned
Whatever your faith, wherever you reign
I wish you a happy Easter day
Where might that be, by whatever name
Gladness and joy, peace and safety,
A thankful heart and prosperity, the same
