{{Vs|1}} Christ the Lord is ris'n today; | |||
Christians, haste your vows to pay; | |||
Make your joy and praises known | |||
At the Paschal Victim's throne. | |||
For the sheep the Lamb has bled, | |||
Sinless in the sinner's stead. | |||
Christ the Lord is ris'n on high; | |||
Now he lives, no more to die. | |||
{{Vs|2}} Christ, the Victim undefiled, | |||
God and sinners reconciled, | |||
When in fierce and bloody strife | |||
Met together death and life. | |||
Christians, on this happy day, | |||
Raise your hearts with joy and say: | |||
"Christ the Lord is ris'n on high; | |||
Now he lives no more to die." | |||
{{mdl}} | |||
{{Vs|3}} Say, O wond'ring Mary, say | |||
What you saw along your way. | |||
"I beheld the glory bright | |||
Of the risen Lord of light, | |||
Empty tomb and angels seen | |||
Where Christ's body once had been. | |||
Christ my hope, raised gloriously, | |||
Makes his way to Galilee." | |||
{{Vs|4}} Christ, who once for sinners bled, | |||
Now the first-born from the dead, | |||
Throned in endless might and pow'r | |||
Lives and reigns for evermore. | |||
Hail, eternal Hope on high! | |||
Hail, O King of victory! | |||
Hail, our Prince of life adored! | |||
Show us mercy, gracious Lord. | |||
