Our triumphant holy way VS. day

I was looking at "Christ the Lord is risen today" and "Jesus Christ is risen today". The similarities and the contrasts are pretty obvious, but when I looked at "Full Text" on the "Jesus Christ..." text authority page, the default (oldest except for the Cyber Hymnal ;-) ) full text began

1 Christ our Lord is ris'n to-day,
Our triumphant holy way;
Who so lately on the cross
Suffer'd to redeem our loss.

2 In our paschal joys and feast
Let the Lord of life be blest,
Let the holy three be prais'd,
And to heaven our songs be rais'd,

... which I don't think is the same hymn at all. So I have created a new authority for the two full-text instances that are this "holy way" text.

Also, I guess predictably, there's this mangled full text.
