He Is Arisen! Glorious Word!

Birgitte Katerine Boye (1778) • George Taylor Rygh (1909) • English

Primary Scripture: John 5:21

Verse 1

He is arisen! Glorious Word! Now reconciled is God, my Lord; the gates of heav'n are open. My Jesus did triumphant die, and Satan's arrows broken lie, destroyed hell's fiercest weapon. O hear what cheer! Christ victorious, rising glorious, life is giving. He was dead but now is living!
