2143. The Happy Morn Is Come

1. The happy morn is come!
Triumphant o’er the grave,
The Lord hath left the tomb
Omnipotent to save.

Refrain
Captivity is captive led;
For Jesus liveth that was dead.

2. Who now accuseth them
For whom their Surety died?
Who now shall those condemn
Whom God hath justified? [Refrain]

3. Christ hath the ransom paid;
The glorious work is done;
Oh Him our help is laid;
By Him our victory won. [Refrain]

4. Hail, the triumphant Lord!
Thy resurrection Thou!
We bless Thy sacred Word;
Before Thy throne we bow. [Refrain]
