The Lord Is Risen

Mrs. H. W. Chadbourne • English

Primary Scripture: Matthew 28:6

Verse 1

He is risen, Christ our Lord, Son of man and Son of God, Throned on high, exalted now, Glory resting on His brow; Yet for us He careth still; “Peace on earth, to men good will,” Angel voices yet proclaim, While they praise His holy name.

Verse 2

He is risen, Christ our King; Seraph bands their offerings bring; Saints with wonder and delight, Chant His praises day and night; Yet, amid the holy throng, He will listen to our song; And He heareth us alway, Though in feebleness we pray.

Verse 3

He is risen, Christ our All; Looking up to Him we call: Thou, our life, the truth, the way, Be our helper day by day; Guard and guide and keep us still, Teach us here to do Thy will, Till we there, among the blest, Enter Thine eternal rest.
