1 The Lord is risen; the Red Sea's judgment flood
Is passed, in Him who bought us with His blood.
The Lord is risen: we stand beyond the doom
Of all our sin, through Jesus' empty tomb.
2 The Lord is risen: with Him we also rose,
And in His grave see vanquished all our foes.
The Lord is risen: beyond the judgment land,
In Him, in resurrection-life we stand.
3 The Lord is risen: redeemed now to God,
We tread the desert which His feet have trod.
The Lord is risen: the sanctu'ry's our place,
Where now we dwell before the Father's face.
4 The Lord is risen: the Lord is gone before,
We long to see Him, and to sin no more.
The Lord is risen: our triumph-shout shall be,--
"Thou hast prevailed! Thy people, Lord, are free!"
