58. Christ is risen from the dead

1 Christ is risen from the dead,
Risen as He truly said;
Praise the Lord with grateful voice,
Bless His name, Rejoice, Rejoice!

Chorus:
Resurrexit, Sicut dixit,
Alleluia, Alleluia,
Alleluia, Alleluia,
Alleluia, Alleluia.

2 Angels clad in snowy white,
Coming from the realms of light,
Bid us sing with grateful voice,
Bid us all Rejoice, Rejoice! [Chorus]

3 Man was but a slave before,
Man is free for evermore;
Heav'n and earth with grateful voice,
Bid us all Rejoice, Rejoice! [Chorus]
