Christ, the Lord, is Risen Today

(another song with same title can be found here.)

1.
Christ, the Lord is ris’n today,
Alleluia!
All on earth with angels say,
Alleluia!
Raise your love and triumphs high,
Alleluia!
Sing ye heav’ns and earth reply,
Alleluia!

2.
Lives again our glorious King;
Alleluia!
Where, O death, is now thy sting?
Alleluia!
Once he died our souls to save,
Alleluia!
Where thy victory, O grave?
Alleluia!

3.
Love’s redeeming work is done,
Alleluia!
Fought the fight, the battle won.
Alleluia!
Death in vain forbids him rise;
Alleluia!
Christ has open’d paradise.
Alleluia!

4.
Soar we now where Christ has led,
Alleluia!
Foll’wing our exalted head;
Alleluia!
Made like him, like he we rise,
Alleluia!
Ours the cross, the grave the skies.
Alleluia!
