Risen With Christ

Verse 1

Risen with Christ! O boundless joy! Seeking the things which are above; Free from the cares that would annoy, Walking in bonds of perfect love. We who are dead and not our own; Hidden with Christ, who is our life; Heirs of the Father at the throne, Free from all hatred, sin and strife.

Chorus

Risen with Christ! O wondrous grace! Soon we shall meet Him face to face. Risen with Christ! O wondrous grace! Soon we shall meet Him face to face.

Verse 2

Risen with Christ! O peace sublime! Wrought for the world, let saints proclaim; Jesus, the Lamb of David’s line, Offered, condemned, for sinners slain; Raised from the dead and set on high, Peace from our God, so rich and free, Rules in our hearts as we draw nigh, Blessing His grace eternally.

Verse 3

Risen with Christ! O blessed hope! Let all His saints with glad hearts sing Triumphantly in wondrous note Melodies sweet for Christ our King. Elected of God, created new; Bearing the fruits of righteousness; Grace doth abound, fears are subdued, Trusting His word in thankfulness.
