He is risen!
Sing, choirs of New Jerusalem!
Your sweetest notes employ
The paschal victory to hymn
In songs of holy joy!
For Judah's Lion burst his chains
And crushed the serpent's head;
Christ cries aloud through death's domains
To wake th'imprisoned dead.
Triumphant in his glory now--
To him all pow'r is giv'n;
To him in one communion bow
All saints on earth and heav'n.
All glory to the Father be!
All glory to the Son!
All glory to the Spirit be
While endless ages run!
(sung to "Lyngham," also known to those familiar with the Book of Psalms for Singing as Psalm 98A)
