Christian Hymns ‎#195

195. Praise The King

1 The Lord of life has risen,
The world is glad again;
He cometh from His prison
To rescue sinking men.

Chorus:
Praise Him, praise Him!
Spread abroad His fame;
Peal the bells in ev'ry steeple,
Magnify His name.
Praise Him, praise Him!
Loud hosannas sing,
Tell the story of His glory,
Praise the King.

2 The truth His lips hath spoken,
His foes have met defeat;
His letters are all broken,
His triumph is complete. [Chorus]

3 Let praise to Him be given,
While hosts of evil frown;
The King of earth and heaven,
Hath won the victor's crown. [Chorus]
