148. Christ is Risen

1 Christ is risen from the dead, is risen from the dead,
And become the first fruits of them that slept, of them that slept.

Refrain:
O grave, where is thy victory?
O death, where is thy sting?
O grave, where is thy victory?
O death, where is thy sting?
Where is thy string?

2 He must reign till He hath put all things under His feet.
And the last, the last enemy that shall be destroyed is death. [Refrain]

3 Thanks be unto God who giveth us the victory,
Through our Lord, our Lord Jesus Christ, Through our Lord Jesus Christ. [Refrain]
