Christ Is Risen (Bird)

Christ is ris­en

Christ is ris­en

Let our hearts with glad­ness sing;

Nevermore shall tomb im­pris­on

Jesus Christ

our Lord and king.

To our cap­tain and de­fend­er

We would ev­ery trib­ute pay;

Loving serv­ice we would ren­der

On this hap­py East­er Day.

Hallelujah! sing

hal­le­lu­jah!

Let our hearts with glad­ness ring;

Hallelujah! sing

hal­le­lu­jah!

Christ is ris’n our Lord and king.

Oh

that all could know this sto­ry

Of the Sav­ior’s won­drous love

How the Lord left all His glo­ry

Left His hap­py home ab­ove;

And to show the love He bore us

And the price of sin to pay

Over death be­came vic­tor­ious

So we keep His East­er Day.

If to fol­low Him we’re striv­ing

And our cross­es meek­ly bear

At His hap­py home ar­riv­ing

We shall in His glo­ry share.

Then to Him who died to save us

Grateful hom­age let us pay;

His own life He free­ly gave us

So we keep His East­er Day.
