Lyrics

Christ the Lord is ris'n today, Allelula! Sons of men and angels say Allelula! Raise your joys and triumphs high, Allelula! Sing ye heav'ns and eath reply Allelula Lives again our glorious king; Allelula! Where O death, is now thy sting? Dying once, He all doth savew: Allelula! Where thy victory, O grave? Love's redeeming work is done. Fought the fight, the battle won; Death in vain forbids Him rise; Christ has opened Paradise Soar we now where Christ has led, Foll'wing our exalted Head: Made like him, like Hime we rise; Ours the cross, the grave the skies; Amen
