Sheet music
- 1Alleluia, alleluia!Hearts to heav’n and voices raise:Sing to God a hymn of gladness,Sing to God a hymn of praise;He, who on the cross a ransom,For the world’s salvation bled,Jesus Christ, the King of Glory,Now is risen from the dead.
- 2Christ is risen, Christ, the first-fruitsOf the holy harvest field,Which will all its full abundanceAt His second coming yield.Then the golden ears of harvestWill their heads before Him wave,Ripened by His glorious sunshineFrom the furrows of the grave.
- 3Christ is risen, we are risen.Shed upon us heav’nly grace,Rain and dew and gleams of gloryFrom the brightness of Thy face;That we, Lord, with hearts in heaven,Here on earth may fruitful be,And by angel hands be gathered,And be ever, Lord, with Thee.
