Christ Is Risen, All Triumphant

lyricist: Anonymous, 1916
Composer: August Ulmann (1845–1922)

Christ is ris­en

all tri­umph­ant—

He is ris­en from the tomb!

Angel voic­es

sweet­ly sing­ing

Banish all our earth­ly gloom!

Join the glad song

all ye na­tions

Of His great re­deem­ing love;

Calvary alone can save us:

Christ is smil­ing from above.

He has ris­en! He is plead­ing

For each poor and strug­gling one;

Blessèd day

we hail thy dawn­ing;

Hope shall gild thy ris­ing sun!

While on earth re­viled

re­ject­ed

Gain He count­ed but as loss.

Hallelujah! He has ris­en

And we bow be­fore the cross.

Let the glad songs

now as­cend­ing

Sing our dear Re­deem­er’s name;

Christ has ris­en! Christ has ris­en!

All our hope is in the same;

Blessèd day that ban­ished dark­ness

At the cross we bow in love

Knowing that a ris­en Sav­ior

Smiles all sweet­ly from above.

Ring

glad bells

your loud­est an­thems

Sounding joy o’er all the earth

Crown the al­tars now with gar­lands

Let us bow be­fore His worth!

Christ has ris­en! joy ex­cel­ling

All our sor­rows flee away

And our hearts with joy are beat­ing

On this bless­èd East­er day!
