1. He is risen; he is risen! Tell it out with joyful voice: He has burst his three days’ prison; Let the whole wide earth rejoice: Death is conquer’d, man is free. Christ has won the victory.
2. Come with high and holy hymning Chant our Lord’s triumphant lay; Not one darksome cloud is dimming Yonder glorious morning ray, Breaking o’er the purple east, Symbol of our Easter feast.
3. He is risen; he is risen! He hath opened heaven’s gate: We are free from sin’s dark prison, Risen to a holier state; And a brighter Easter beam On our longing eyes shall stream.
