HYMN Christ Is Risen! Alleluia!
Christ is risen! Alleluia! Risen our victorious head!
Sing his praises! Alleluia! Christ is risen from the dead!
Gratefully our hearts adore him, as his light once more appears;
Bowing down in joy before him rising up from griefs and tears.
Refrain: Christ is risen! Alleluia! Risen our victorious head!
Sing his praises! Alleluia! Christ is risen from the dead!
Christ is risen! Henceforth never death or hell shall us enthrall;
We are Christ’s, in him forever, we have triumphed over all.
All the doubting and dejection of our trembling hearts have ceased;
Hail the day of resurrection! Let us rise and keep the feast.
Refrain: Christ is risen! Alleluia! Risen our victorious head!
Sing his praises! Alleluia! Christ is risen from the dead!
