Christ the Lord is risen

HYMN.

Christ the Lord is risen today, Hallelujah!
Sons of men and angels say! Hallelujah!
Raise your joys and triumphs high: Hallelujah!
Sing ye heavens, thou earth reply. Hallelujah!

Love's redeeming work is done; Hallelujah!
Fought the fight, the battle won: Hallelujah!
Lo! he sets in blood no more! Hallelujah!


Vain the stone, the watch, the seal, Hallelujah!
Christ has burst the gates of hell: Hallelujah!
Death in vain forbids his rise; Hallelujah!
Christ hath opened paradise. Hallelujah!

Lives again our glorious King! Hallelujah!
Where, O death is now thy sting? Hallelujah!
Once he died our souls to save; Hallelujah!
Where's thy victory, boasting grave, Hallelujah!

Soar we now where Christ has led, Hallelujah!
Following our exalted Head, Hallelujah!
Made like him, like him we rise, Hallelujah!
Ours the cross, the grave, the skies. Hallelujah!

Hail the Lord of earth and heaven! Hallelujah!
Praise to thee by both be given. Hallelujah!
Thee we greet triumphant now; Hallelujah!

King of glory, soul of bliss, Hallelujah!
Everlasting life is this: Hallelujah!
Thee to know, thy power to prove, Hallelujah!
Thus to sing, and thus to love! Hallelujah!

End.

As you sing the hymn, may the purpose of Easter be established in your life and yours in Jesus name.
