On Easter Morn Christ Rose Again

On East­er morn Christ rose again

Rejoice

rej­oice

good Christ­ian men;

Alleluia

Al­le­lu­ia!

But two days since He deigned to die

That we no more in death may lie.

Alleluia

Al­le­lu­ia!

The ho­ly wo­men to the tomb

With gifts of pre­cious oint­ment come;

Alleluia

Al­le­lu­ia!

They seek with­in the guard­ed grave

The Lord

who died man­kind to save.

Alleluia

Al­le­lu­ia!

An an­gel clad in white ap­pears

Who brings glad tid­ings to their ears;

Alleluia

Al­le­lu­ia!

Ye trem­bling daugh­ters

do not fear;

Ye seek the Christ—He is not here.

Alleluia

Al­le­lu­ia!

Go

bid the glad dis­ci­ples see

Their ris­en Lord in Ga­li­lee;

Alleluia

Al­le­lu­ia!

Of Si­mon Pe­ter

next

I ween

Then of th’e­lev­en

He was seen.

Alleluia

Al­le­lu­ia!

This time of ho­ly pas­chal joy

In hymns to Christ let all em­ploy;

Alleluia

Al­le­lu­ia!

The Ho­ly Trin­ity be praised

Glad thanks to God Al­migh­ty raised.

Alleluia

Al­le­lu­ia!
