Hymn
Christ the Lord is risen again!
Christ the Lord is risen again; Hallelujah!
Christ hath broken ev'ry chain; Hallelujah!
Hark, angelic voices cry, Hallelujah!
Singing evermore on high, Hallelujah!
He who bore all pain and loss, Hallelujah!
Comfortless upon the cross, Hallelujah!
Lives in glory now on high, Hallelujah!
Pleads for us and hears our cry; Hallelujah!
He who slumbered in the grave, Hallelujah!
Is exalted now to save; Hallelujah!
Now thro' Christendom it rings Hallelujah!
That the Lamb is King of kings. Hallelujah!
Now he bids us tell abroad, Hallelujah!
How the lost may be restored, Hallelujah!
How the penitent forgiven, Hallelujah!
How we, too, may enter heaven. Hallelujah!
