1 Christ has risen from the dead,
He who suffered in our stead;
Rise we with our risen Head;
Alleluiah! alleluiah!

2 They who sang when He was born,
Sing again this Easter morn,
Songs that gladden hearts forlorn;
Alleluiah! alleluiah!

3 He has burst the captive’s chain;
Now they glory in His name
Who for them did suffer shame;
Alleluiah! alleluiah!

4 See, the tomb has opened wide;
See, the Lord, who bled and died,
Now has risen glorified;
Alleluiah! alleluiah!

5 On that grand triumphant day,
When things old shall pass away,
We shall lift our voice and say,
Alleluiah! alleluiah!

6 Christ the first fruits now we see,
Of a harvest yet to be,
When we’re gathered, Lord, to Thee.
Alleluiah! alleluiah!
