I've got a good handle on some of the traditionals we will be doing on Easter Sunday, but can anyone suggest some good praise songs that would be suitable for Easter morning?

-----------------One 'new' song we sang this Sunday 'Easter people, raise your voices"........just turned in my spirit: I changed the words to "Christian people" so I could sing it......
In my conscience, Easter is a pagan holiday and to sing a praise or celebration to it is NOT honoring to the Lord.....
Oh..... before I told it here...or to anyone else.... I told my pastor first: I was not offended with him or the music choices of our minister of music, I just could not sing the words as printed and told him so and why. I hope he's not offended with me..... but, it occurs to me..... that that is his business....not mine, lol. God bless!

Since you seem to be asking for non-traditional songs, these three would be ideal, especially if you're dealing with a traditional congregation.
In Christ Alone (My Hope is Found)
See the Morning (Ressurrection Hymn)
The Power of the Cross
All by Keith Getty and Stuart Townend. Incredible songs all year, not just for Easter. -
How Deep the Father's Love for Us
Once Again
(a short chorus...use as a "tag") He Is Lord
Amazing Love (You Are My King)
