OUR LORD IS RISEN FROM THE DEAD!

[1]
Our Lord is risen from the dead!
our Jesus is gone up on high!
the powers of hell are captive led,
dragged to the portals of the sky.
Hallelujah.

[2]
There his triumphal chariot waits,
and angels chant the solemn lay:
lift up your heads, ye heavenly gates;
ye everlasting doors, give way;
Hallelujah.

[3]
Loose all your bars of massy light,
and wide unfold the ethereal scene:
he claims these mansions as his right;
receive the King of glory in!
Hallelujah.

[4]
Who is this King of glory? Who?
the Lord that all our foes o'ercame,
the world; sin, death and hell o'erthrew;
and Jesus is the conqueror's name.
Hallelujah.
