RISEN

"He is risen; He is risen,

Here His empty tomb you see;

And He goeth as He told you

To the hills of Galilee."

Thus to loving, loyal women,

In the centuries agone,

Angel voices told the story

Of the resurrection morn.

He is risen! He is risen!

Years hand down the glad refrain;

Let the ages on to ages

Waft the tidings yet again.

He who near the Bethlehem manger

Lowly child of earth was born,

King of kings reigns all triumphant

Since the resurrection morn.

Christ is risen! Calvary's anguish

All a lost world's ransom paid;

Then, with tears, "the hope of Israel"
