Christ is Risen Songtext
von Page CXVI

See the chains of death are broken;
Of earth below and Heav′n above
Joy in each amazing token
Of His rising, Lord of love;

Christ is risen! He has burst His bonds in twain;
Christ is risen! Alleluia! swell the strain!
Christ is risen! He has burst His bonds in twain;
Christ is risen! Alleluia! swell the strain!

He forevermore shall reign
By his holy Father's side,
Till He comes to the earth,
He Comes to claim His Bride.


Christ is risen! He has burst His bonds in twain;
Christ is risen! Alleluia! swell the strain!
Christ is risen! He has burst His bonds in twain;
Christ is risen! Alleluia! swell the strain!

Gloria, Gloria (He shall reign)
Gloria, Gloria (the starry train)
Gloria, Gloria (find a voice)
Gloria, Gloria (the earth rejoice)
Gloria, Gloria (He shall reign)
Gloria, Gloria (the starry train)
Gloria, Gloria (find a voice)
Gloria, Gloria (the earth rejoice)

Christ is risen! He has burst His bonds in twain;
Christ is risen! Alleluia! swell the strain!
Christ is risen! He has burst His bonds in twain;
Christ is risen! Alleluia! swell the strain!
