For the sheep the Lamb has bled, Sinless in the sinner's stead. Christ the Lord is ris'n on high; Now he lives, no more to die. 2 Christ, the Victim undefiled, God and sinners reconciled, When in fierce and bloody strife Met together death and life. Christians, on this happy day Raise your hearts with joy and say: "Christ the Lord is ris'n on high; Now he lives, no more to die." 3 Say, O wond'ring Mary, say What you saw along your way. "I beheld the glory bright Of the risen Lord of light, Empty tomb and angels seen Where Christ's body once had been. Christ my hope, raised gloriously, Makes his way to Galilee." 4 Christ, who once for sinners bled, Now the first-born from the dead, Throned in endless might and pow'r, Lives and reigns for evermore. Hail, eternal Hope on high! Hail, O King of victory! Hail, our Prince of life adored! Show us mercy, gracious Lord.

Jesus, thou art all compassion, pure, unbounded love thou art; visit us with thy salvation, enter every trembling heart. 2 Breathe, O breathe thy loving Spirit into every troubled breast; let us all in thee inherit, let us find the promised rest. Take away the love of sinning, Alpha and Omega be; end of faith, as its beginning, set our hearts at liberty. 3 Come, almighty to deliver, let us all thy life receive; suddenly return, and never, nevermore thy temples leave. Thee we would be always blessing, serve thee as thy hosts above, pray and praise thee without ceasing, glory in thy perfect love. 4 Finish then thy new creation, pure and spotless let us be; let us see thy great salvation perfectly restored in thee: changed from glory into glory, till in heaven we take our place, till we cast our crowns before thee, lost in wonder, love, and praise.
