I made up some lyrics so we could sing this as an Easter Song. It works beautifully as a three-part round and the children love it
Easter's here, let's celebrate
Raise our voices and sing to all men
New life comes, begin afresh
It's a chance to start over again
Celebrate, celebrate
Raise our voices and sing to all men
Celebrate, celebrate
Raise our voices and sing to all men
New life has come,
Now's the time to start over again
New life has come,
Now's the time to start over again

It's just great! Fantastic if you accompany it yourself with a key board set to samba or rumba beat!

this is a great song..I use it with adults as well as children and as it just comes alive if you can get all three parts together at the same time.
