"Easter Song" is a song written by Annie Herring of the Jesus music group the 2nd Chapter of Acts that tells of Jesus Christ's resurrection and the elation Christians feel about this resurrection on Easter. It was first recorded in 1974 and released on the band's debut album. It continues to be performed, appearing in church hymnals and Easter songbooks.   

The song has been covered by many other artists, including GLAD and Keith Green.

It’s been said that the opening notes to 'Easter Song' just may be the single most recognizable intro in contemporary Christian music.  

Lyrics:
Hear the bells ringing, they're singing that we can be born again.  Hear the bells ringing, they're singing Christ is risen from the dead.  The angel up from the tombstone said, "He is risen, just as He said.  Quickly now, go tell His disciples that Jesus Christ is no longer dead! "Joy to the world! He is risen! Hallelujah! He's risen! Hallelujah! He's risen! Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
