JESUS Christ is risen today
Hallelujah !
our triumphant holy day,
who did once, upon the cross,
suffer to redeem our loss.
2 Hymns of praise then let us sing
unto Christ, our heavenly King,
who endured the cross and grave,
sinners to redeem and save.
3 But the pains which He endured
our salvation has procured;
now above the sky He’s King,
where the angels ever sing.
LYRA DAVIDICA, 1708
and Supplement to the New Version, c. 1816

LED like a lamb to the slaughter,
in silence and shame,
there on Your back
You carried a world
of violence and pain,
bleeding, dying,
bleeding, dying.
You’re alive, You’re alive,
You have risen! Alleluia!
And the power and the glory is given,
Alleluia! Jesus, to You.
2 At break of dawn, poor Mary,
still weeping she came,
when through her grief
she heard Your voice,
now speaking her name.
Mary! Master!
Mary! Master!
3 At the right hand of the Father,
now seated on high,
You have begun
Your eternal reign
of justice and joy.
Glory, glory,
Glory, glory.

I SERVE a risen Saviour,
He’s in the world today;
I know that He is living,
whatever men may say.
I see His hand of mercy,
I hear His voice of cheer,
and just the time I need Him
He’s always near.
He lives, He lives,
Christ Jesus lives today!
He walks with me and talks with me
along life’s narrow way.
He lives, He lives,
salvation to impart!
You ask me how I know He lives?
He lives within my heart.
2 In all the world around me
I see His loving care,
and though my heart grows weary
I never will despair;
I know that He is leading,
through all the stormy blast;
the day of His appearing
will come at last.
3 Rejoice, rejoice, O Christian,
lift up your voice and sing
eternal hallelujahs
to Jesus Christ the King!
The hope of all who seek Him,
the help of all who find,
none other is so loving,
so good and kind.

THE final triumph won,
the full atonement made,
salvation’s work is done,
redemption’s price is paid:
the morning breaks, the dark is fled,
for Christ is risen from the dead!
2 The tomb in which He lay
lies empty now and bare;
the stone is rolled away,
no lifeless form is there:
the sting is drawn from death and grave,
for Christ is risen, strong to save!
3 For us the Saviour died,
with us He lives again,
to God the Father’s side
exalted now to reign:
to throne and crown by right restored,
for Christ is risen, Christ is Lord!
4 As one with Him we rise
to seek the things above,
in life that never dies,
in righteousness and love:
let praise unite our ransomed powers,
for Christ is risen, Christ is ours!
