Jesus Christ is risen today,
Hallelujah!
our triumphant holy day,
Hallelujah!
who did once upon the cross
Hallelujah!
suffer to redeem our loss.
Hallelujah!
2. Hymns of joy then let us sing,
praising Christ, our heavenly King,
who endured the cross and grave
sinners to redeem and save!
3. But the pains which he endured
our salvation have procured;
now above the sky he’s King
where the angels ever sing.
