Author: Charles Wesley Hymnal: Let Youth Praise Him #91 (1964) First Line: "Christ, the Lord, is ris'n today" Lyrics: 1 "Christ, the Lord, is risen today," Alleluia!
Sons of men and angels say; Alleluia!
Raise your joys 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 hath open'd paradise. Alleluia!
4 Soar we now where Christ has led, Alleluia!
Following our exalted Head; Alleluia!
Made like Him, like Him we rise, Alleluia!
Ours the cross, the grave, the skies. Alleluia! Topics: Easter Languages: English Tune Title: [Christ. the Lord, is ris'n today]
