Christ is risen, our Lord and King
1
Christ is risen, our Lord and King,Let the whole creation sing;Raise your joys and triumphs high;Sing, ye heavens, let earth reply.
2
Vain the stone, the watch, the seal,Christ the mighty, to conceal;Death in vain forbids him rise,He hath opened paradise.
3
Lead us, Lord, where thou hast led,—Thou, our high, exalted Head;Made like thee, by thee we rise;Ours the cross, the grave, the skies.
