- He Is Risen
He Is Risen
#42
He is risen, he is risen!
Tell it out with joyful voice
Christ has burst his three days’ prison
Let the whole wide earth rejoice
Death is conquered, man is free
Christ has won the victory
Come, ye sad and fearful-hearted
With glad smiles and radiant brow
Lent’s long shadows have departed
All his woes are over now
And the suff ’ring that he bore Sin and pain can vex no more
He is risen, he is risen!
Christ hath opened heaven’s gate
We are free from sin’s dark prison
Hail our Lord’s triumphant day
He is risen, It is true
All our love to him is due
