Christ the Lord is risen again!
Christ hath broken every chain!
Hark, the angels' joyful cry,
Singing evermore on high:
Hallelujah!
He who gave for us his life,
Who for us endured the strife,
Is our Paschal Lamb today!
We too sing for joy, and say:
Hallelujah!
He who bore all pain and loss
Comfortless upon the cross,
Lives in glory now on high,
Pleads for us, and hears our cry:
Hallelujah!
Thou, our Paschal Lamb indeed,
Christ, today thy people feed:
Take our sins and guilt away,
That we all may sing for aye:
Hallelujah!
