Christ the Lord is Risen Again

Christ the Lord is risen again! Christ has broken death's strong chain! Hark, the angels shout for joy Singing evermore on high: Hallelujah! 2. He who gave for us His life. Who for us endured the strife, Is our Paschal Lamb today. We, too, sing for joy and say: Hallelujah! 3. He who bore all pain and loss Comfortless upon the cross Lives in glory now on high, Pleads for us and hears our cry: Hallelujah!

4. He whose path no records tell Hath descended into hell; He the strong man armed hath bound And in highest heaven is crowned. Hallelujah! 5. He who slumbered in the grave Is exalted now to save; Now through Christendom it rings That the Lamb is King of kings. Hallelujah! 6. Now He bids us tell abroad How the lost may be restored, How the penitent forgiven, How we, too, may enter heaven. Hallelujah!

7. Thou our Paschal Lamb indeed, Christ, today Thy people feed; Take our sins and guilt away That we all may sing for aye: Hallelujah!
