Hallelujah! Christ is ris­en;
He has ris­en from the grave.
He has led the cap­tor cap­tive,
He has migh­ty pow’r to save.

Refrain

Hallelujah! Christ is ris­en;
He has ris­en from the grave.
He has led the cap­tor cap­tive,
He has migh­ty pow’r to save.

Death was strong, but could not hold Him:
All the chains were snapped in twain.
Tho’ a pris­on­er, calm and gen­tle,
Could He lie among the slain?

Refrain

No! He could not see cor­rup­tion—
He, the Fa­ther’s ho­ly One;
His the mis­sion of a Sav­ior;
Now the Vic­tor’s work is done.

Refrain

As He lives, we shall live al­so—
Death hath no more pow’r to hold;
Tho’ we sleep, ’tis not for­ev­er—
He will bring us to His fold.
