The Lord is ris­en! the Lord is ris­en!
Angels the news pro­claim,
And earth’s ten thou­sand voic­es join
To swell the glad ac­claim.

Refrain

He is ris­en! He is ris­en!
Victorious, all glor­ious
Over death, hell and the grave,
A Con­qu’ror migh­ty to save.

The Lord is ris­en! He lives again;
The stone is rolled away;
Look and be­hold the emp­ty grave,
Where late your Savior lay.

Refrain

He rent the low, dark se­pul­cher,
Unlocked His pri­son cell,
And rose, tri­umph­ant from the grave,
Conqu’ror of death and hell.

Refrain

Rejoice, re­joice, ye sor­row­ing ones,
Whose friends in Je­sus sleep!
He shall un­lock their pri­son doors,
For He the keys doth keep.
