Hymn/Song Information

Angels roll the rock away Death yield up




Angels, roll the rock away,
Death, yield up your mighty Prey.
See, the Savior leaves the tomb,
Glowing with immortal bloom.
Alleluia! Alleluia!
Christ the Lord is risen to­day.


’Tis the Savior! angels, raise
Fame’s eternal trump of praise.
Let the world’s remotest bound
Hear the joy inspiring sound.
Alleluia! Alleluia!
Christ the Lord is risen to­day.


Now ye saints, lift up your eyes
Now to glory see Him rise,
In long triumph up the sky,
Up to waiting worlds on high.
Alleluia! Alleluia!
Christ the Lord is risen to­day.


Heaven unfolds its portals wide,
Glorious Hero, through them ride:
King of glory mount Thy throne,
Thy great Father’s, and Thine own.
Alleluia! Alleluia!
Christ the Lord is risen to­day.


Praise Him all ye heavenly choirs,
Raptured, sweep your sounding lyres
Sons of men, in humbler strain,
Sing your mighty Savior’s reign.
Alleluia! Alleluia!
Christ the Lord is risen to­day.


Every note with wonder swell;
Sin o’erthrown, and captived hell!
Where is now, O death! thy sting?
Where thy terrors, vanquished king!
Alleluia! Alleluia!
Christ the Lord is risen to­day.


---Alternative verses---


Hail! victorious Jesus, hail!
On Thy cloud of glory sail
In long triumph through the sky,
Up to waiting worlds on high.
Alleluia! Alleluia!
Christ the Lord is risen to­day.
