Representative Text

1. On the resurrection morning when our Lord shall come again,
We shall rise, we shall rise;
In the dawning of that morning, see the Lamb for sinners slain:
We shall rise, we shall rise.

Refrain
We shall rise, hallelujah! we shall rise with Him
In the air;
On the resurrection morning
We shall greet our Lord returning,
Evermore to reign.

2. On the resurrection morning we shall see His glory bright,
We shall rise, we shall rise;
Hail our Savior King forever, robed in majesty and might,
We shall rise, we shall rise. [Refrain]

3. How the loved who left us lonely, will rejoice to see us there!
We shall rise, we shall rise;
O what singing, O what shouting when we meet them in the air!
We shall rise, we shall rise. [Refrain]
