11. Jesus, the Lord, is risen

1 Jesus, the Lord, is risen
Triumphant o'er the grave;
For us He burst the prison,
Almighty now to save:
Captivity is captive led,
Since Jesus liveth that was dead.

2 Who to our charge shall lay
Iniquity or guilt?
Our sin is done away
Since Jesus' blood was split.
Captivity is captive led,
Since Jesus liveth that was dead.

3 Who now accuseth them
Whom God hath justified?
Or who shall these condemn
For whom the Surety died?
Captivity is captive led,
Since Jesus liveth that was dead.

4 Christ hath the ransom paid,
The wondrous work is done;
On Him our help is laid,
The victory is won.
Captivity is captive led,
Since Jesus liveth that was dead.
