Christ Is Risen (Thompson)

Author: Will L. Thompson Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #842 First Line: Christ is risen, Christ is risen Lyrics: 1. Christ is risen, Christ is risen, He hath left the solemn grave; Christ is risen, Christ is risen, For a dying world to save; Send the tidings round the world, Let it reach to every soul; Now His banner is unfurled, Spread the news from pole to pole. 2. Christ is risen, Christ is risen, Cheer thy heart and dry thy tears; Christ is risen, Christ is risen, He will quiet all thy fears; Oh, ye mourners, cease to mourn, Why should life be filled with sighs? Christ has all thy sorrows borne, Now He beckons toward the skies. 3. Christ is risen, Christ is risen, Sinner, come and join the song; Christ is risen, Christ is risen, You may yet to Him belong; We’ll forever sing His praise, Join we now with one accord, While we’ve breath the song to raise, Sing for Christ, our risen Lord.

Will L. Thompson

1847 - 1909 Author of "Christ Is Risen (Thompson)" in The Cyber Hymnal Will Lamartine Thompson (1847-1909) Born: November 7, 1847, East Li­ver­pool, Ohio. Died: Sep­tem­ber 20, 1909, New York, New York. Buried: Ri­ver­view Cem­e­te­ry, East Li­ver­pool, Ohio. Rebuffed in an ear­ly at­tempt to sell his songs to a com­mer­cial pub­lish­er, Thomp­son start­ed his own pub­lish­ing com­pa­ny. He lat­er ex­pand­ed, open­ing a store to sell pi­an­os, or­gans and sheet mu­sic. Both a lyr­i­cist and com­pos­er, he en­sured he would al­ways re­mem­ber words or mel­o­dies that came to him at odd times: "No mat­ter where I am, at home or ho­tel, at the store or tra­vel­ing, if an idea or theme comes to me that I deem wor­thy of a song, I jot it down in verse. In this way I ne­ver lose it." Thompson took ill dur­ing a tour of Eur­ope, and his fam­i­ly cut short their tra­vels to re­turn home. He died a few weeks lat­er.
