He is risen, as He said.
Matthew 28:6
Words: Fanny Crosby, 1882.
Music: Horatio R. Palmer (🔊 pdf nwc).
See! from the morning land,
Over its golden strand,
Love spreads her wings;
Where, from a troubled sleep,
Sad hearts awake to weep,
Where their lone watch they keep,
Tidings she brings.
Refrain
Hallelujah! Christ is ris’n in glory!
Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Amen!
Christ the Lord our God is ris’n in glory!
Hallelujah! Amen.
Oh, how her welcome voice
Bids them in hope rejoice,
Calms every fear;
Sweetly we hear her say,
Rolled is the stone away,
Jesus arose today,
Dry every tear.
Refrain
Hail, Thou Anointed One,
God’s own eternal Son,
Glory to Thee;
Thou our exalted Lord,
Thou the incarnate Word,
By all in Heav’n adored,
Thy name shall be.
