1. "Christ the Lord is risen today !"

Hallelujah !

Sons of men and angels say;

All Creation joins to say :

Hallelujah !

Raise your joy and triumph high;

All Creation joins to say :

Hallelujah !

Sing, now heavens, and earth reply.

All Creation joins to say :

Hallelujah !

2. Love's redeeming work is done,

Fought the fight, the battle won;

Vain the stone, the watch, the seal;

Christ has burst the gates of hell.

3. Lives again our glorious King;

Where, O death, is now your sting ?

Once He died our souls to save;

Where your victory, O grave ?

4. Soar we now where Christ has led,

Following our exalted Head;

Made like Him, like Him we rise;

Ours the cross, the grave, the skies.

5. King of glory ! Soul of bliss !

Everlasting life is this;

You to know, Your power to prove,

Thus to sing, and thus to love.
