Representative Text

1 Christ is risen! Christ is risen!
O let the joyful sounds
Thro' ev'ry land re-echo,
To earth's remotest bounds,
Christ is risen! Christ is risen!

2 Christ is risen! Christ is risen!
Bright Angels join the cry;
Alleluias ever singing
Before the Throne on high.
Christ is risen! Christ is risen!

3 Christ is risen! Christ is risen!
Ere earliest morning ray,
Wake, slumb'ring hearts, awake! arise!
And speed you on your way,
Christ is risen! Christ is risen!

4 Christ is risen! Christ is risen!
To all the words repeat,
Till ev'ry knee before Him bow
In adoration meet.
Christ is risen! Christ is risen!

5 Christ is risen! Christ is risen!
Bid all His praises sing;
Praise Him, the God of earth and heaven,
Redeemer, Lord and King.
Christ is risen! Christ is risen!
