“Christ the Lord Is Risen Today” & “Thine Be the Glory”

“Christ the Lord Is Risen Today”

Christ the Lord is risen today, Alleluia!

Earth and heaven in chorus say, Alleluia!

Raise your joys and triumphs high, Alleluia!

Sing, ye heavens, and earth reply, Alleluia!

Love's redeeming work is done, Alleluia!

Fought the fight the battle won, Alleluia!

Death in vain for bids him rise, Alleluia!

Christ has opened paradise, Alleluia!

“Thine Be the Glory”

Thine be the glory, risen conquering Son;

endless is the victory thou o'er death hast won;

Angels in bright raiment rolled the stone away,

kept the folded grave-clothes where thy body lay. 

Thine be the glory, risen conquering Son;

endless is the victory thou o'er death hast won.

Lo! Jesus meets thee, risen from the tomb;

lovingly he greets thee, scatters fear and gloom;

Let the church with gladness hymns of triumph sing,

for our Lord now liveth; death hath lost its sting.

Thine be the glory, risen conquering Son;

endless is the victory thou o'er death hast won.
