Our Lord Christ hath risen!
the tempter is foiled;
His legions are scattered,
his strongholds are spoiled.
O sing, alleluia! O sing, alleluia!
O sing, alleluia! be joyful and sing,
Our great foe is baffled,
Christ Jesus is King!
O Death, we defy thee!
a stronger than thou
Hath entered thy palace;
we fear thee not now!
O sing, alleluia! O sing, alleluia!
O sing, alleluia! be joyful and sing,
Death cannot affright us,
Christ Jesus is King!
O Sin, thou art vanquished,
thy long reign is o’er;
Though still thou dost vex us,
we dread thee no more.
O sing, alleluia! O sing, alleluia!
O sing, alleluia! be joyful and sing,
Who now can condemn us,
Christ Jesus is King!
Our Lord Christ hath risen!
day breaketh at last;
The long night of weeping
is now well nigh past.
O sing, alleluia! O sing, alleluia!
O sing, alleluia! be joyful and sing,
Our foes are all conquered,
Christ Jesus is King!
