Christ Is Risen Indeed

Christ is ris­en! Christ is ris­en!

Joyful an­gels sing;

Christ is ris­en! Christ is ris­en!

Earth’s glad car­ols ring.

To the grave our Lord des­cend­ed

Bowed to death’s grim reign

But the three dread days are end­ed

Empty now is death’s do­main.

Christ is ris­en! Christ is ris­en!

Sorrow

earth

no more;

From the tomb’s en­clos­ing pri­son

Lo! an op­en door.

Through its por­tals now a vi­sion

Fills the glow­ing sky;

Sing

ye Christ­ians

Christ is ris­en

Ris’n in­deed

no more to die.
