The Church Hymnal ‎#111

111. Jesus Christ is ris'n today

1 Jesus Christ is ris'n today,
Alleluia!
Our triumphant holy day,
Alleluia!
Who did once upon the Cross
Alleluia!
Suffer to redeem our loss,
Alleluia!

2 Hymns of praise then let us sing
Unto Christ, our heavenly King,
Who endure the Cross and grave,
Sinners to redeem and save.
Alleluia!

3 But the pains which He endured,
Our salvation have procured;
Now above the sky He's King,
Where the angels ever sing.
Alleluia!

4 Sing we to our God above
Praise eternal as His love;
Praise Him all ye heavenly host,
Father, Son, and Holy Ghost.
Alleluia!
