Christ the Lord is ris­en to­day;
Christians, haste your vows to pay;
Offer ye your prais­es meet
At the Pas­chal Vic­tim’s feet.
For the sheep the Lamb hath bled,
Sinless in the sin­ner’s stead;
Christ is ris­en, today we cry;
Now He lives no more to die.

Christ, the Vic­tim un­de­filed,
Man to God hath re­con­ciled;
Whilst in strange and aw­ful strife
Met to­ge­ther Death and Life:
Christians, on this hap­py day
Haste with joy your vows to pay;
Christ is ris­en, to­day we cry;
Now He lives no more to die.

Christ, who once for sin­ners bled,
Now the first born from the dead,
Throned in end­less might and pow­er,
Lives and reigns for­ev­er­more.
Hail, eter­nal Hope on high!
Hail, Thou King of vic­to­ry!
Hail, Thou Prince of life adored!
Help and save us, gra­cious Lord.
