245. Christ the Lord is Risen Again

1 Christ the Lord is ris’n again, Alleluia!
Christ hath broken ev’ry chain, Alleluia!
Hark, Angelic voices cry, Alleluia!
Singing evermore on high, Alleluia!

2 He Who bore all pain and loss, Alleluia!
Comfortless upon the cross, Alleluia!
Lives in glory now on high, Alleluia!
Pleads for us and hears our cry; Alleluia!

3 He Who slumbered in the grave, Alleluia!
Is exalted now to save; Alleluia!
Now thro’ Christendom it rings, Alleluia!
That the Lamb is King of kings. Alleluia!

4 Now He bids tell abroad, Alleluia!
How the lost may be restored, Alleluia!
How the penitent forgiven, Alleluia!
How we, too, may enter heav’n. Alleluia!
