Christ Is Risen (Cleator)

Hail the joy to mor­tals giv­en

Christ hath con­quered hosts of sin;

Keys of death have op­ened Heav­en

All who will may en­ter in.

Christ is ris’n—o’er death vic­tor­ious

Hail the joy the mes­sage brings;

Christ is ris’n to life most glo­ri­ous

Hail

O hail the King of kings.

Christ is ris’n from grief to glo­ry

From a grave un­to a throne;

Hail the glad and won­drous sto­ry

Hail

O hail the king­ly One.

Join

O heart

the song of glad­ness

Join the strains of earth and Heav­en;

Vanished now all gloom and sad­ness

Joy is to the na­tions giv’n.
