Hymnal for Colleges and Schools ‎#103

103. Christ is now risen again

1 Christ is now risen again
From his death and all his pain:
Therefore will we merry be,
And rejoice with him gladly. Alleluia.

Refrain:
Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia.

2 Had he not risen again,
We had been lost, this is plain:
But since he is risen indeed,
Let us love him with all speed. Alleluia. [Refrain]

3 Now is the time of gladness,
For to sing the Lord's goodness.
Therefore glad now will we be,
And rejoice in him only. Alleluia. [Refrain]
