Christ is risen, all triumphant

1 Christ is risen, all triumphant—
He is risen from the tomb!
Angel voices, sweetly singing,
Banish all our earthly gloom!
Join the glad song, all ye nations,
Of His great redeeming love;
Calvary alone can save us:
Christ is smiling from above.

2 He has risen! He is pleading
For each poor and struggling one;
Blessèd day, we hail thy dawning;
Hope shall gild thy rising sun!
While on earth reviled, rejected,
Gain He counted but as loss.
Hallelujah! He has risen,
And we bow before the cross.

3 Let the glad songs, now ascending,
Sing our dear Redeemer’s name;
Christ has risen! Christ has risen!
All our hope is in the same;
Blessèd day that banished darkness,
At the cross we bow in love,
Knowing that a risen Savior
Smiles all sweetly from above.

4 Ring, glad bells, your loudest anthems,
Sounding joy o’er all the earth,
Crown the altars now with garlands,
Let us bow before His worth!
Christ has risen! joy excelling,
All our sorrows flee away,
And our hearts with joy are beating
On this blessèd Easter day!
