218:Christ the Lord is risen today

Tunes: Easter Hymn, 248
Llanfair, 252
Meter: 7.7.7.7.

CHRIST the Lord is risen today,
Hallelujah!
Sons of men and angels say:
Hallelujah!
Raise your joys and triumphs high;
Hallelujah!
Sing, ye heavens; thou earth, reply:
Hallelujah!

2 Love?s redeeming work is done;
Fought the fight, the battle won;
Lo! the sun?s eclipse is o?er,
Lo! he sets in blood no more.

3 Vain the stone, the watch, the seal,
Christ hath burst the gates of Hell;
Death in vain forbids his rise;
Christ hath opened Paradise.

4 Lives again our glorious King;
Where, O death, is now thy sting?
Once he died our souls to save;
Where?s thy victory, boasting grave?

5 Soar we now where Christ has led,
Following our exalted head;
Made like him, like him we rise,
Ours the cross, the grave, the skies.

Charles
