My bless�d Lord was crucified,
The day was dark,
and grief was wide,
For hope was crushed
and all seemed vain,
Until that Savior rose again.
Ring out the bless�d news again!
Oh! bear aloft the strain;
The mighty Lord is ris�n in power,
He died, but not in vain!
He brings His great salvation nigh,
And on His love bids us rely;
He bought our peace
through grief and pain;
But oh! He did not die in vain!
Ring out the bless�d news again!
Oh! bear aloft the strain;
The mighty Lord is ris�n in power,
He died, but not in vain!
O, wondrous news of life and love!
That Jesus lives and reigns above!
He made the path to glory plain;
Ah, no! He did not die in vain.
Ring out the bless�d news again!
Oh! bear aloft the strain;
The mighty Lord is ris�n in power,
He died, but not in vain!
