Christ Is Risen (Royer)

Christ is ris­en

tell the sto­ry

Shout the tid­ings far and wide!

He who left His home in glo­ry

And for us was cru­ci­fied.

Make it plain that all may read

Christ the Lord has ris’n in­deed;

Make it plain that all may read

Christ the Lord has ris’n in­deed.

Christ is ris­en in the morn­ing

Of that bright and hap­py day;

His dis­ci­ples

at the dawn­ing

Found the stone was rolled away.

From the tomb in haste they speed

Saying Christ is ris’n indeed;

From the tomb in haste they speed

Saying Christ is ris’n in­deed.

Christ is ris­en

tell the sto­ry:

He who lived in Ga­li­lee

Has as­cend­ed

and in glo­ry

Intercedes for you and me.

Glorious tid­ings which we read

Christ the Lord is ris’n in­deed.

Glorious tid­ings which we read

Christ the Lord is ris’n in­deed.

Christ is ris­en

lift your voic­es!

Sound the tid­ings all abroad

While the host of Heav’n re­joic­es

O’er the ris­en Son of God.

Let all earth the mes­sage heed:

Christ the Lord is ris’n in­deed;

Let all earth the mes­sage heed:

Christ the Lord is ris’n in­deed.
